Rebel Nell Announces Exclusive Holiday Jewelry Collection in Collaboration with Ilitch Sports + Entertainment, Celebrating the historic Fox Theatre

Rebel Nell, the celebrated Detroit-based social enterprise, is excited to unveil its latest collaboration with Ilitch Sports + Entertainment, honoring the iconic Fox Theatre. Just in time for the holiday season, this limited-edition jewelry collection repurposes the seats from the nearly century-old theatre where generations of Detroiters have enjoyed unforgettable shows, transforming its storied past into stunning, one-of-a-kind wearable art. As with all Rebel Nell collaborations, each piece is entirely unique, ensuring that no two items are the same. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Ilitch Companies Foundation, highlighting the shared dedication of both organizations to community support and preservation.

For nearly 100 years, the Fox Theatre has been a cornerstone of Detroit’s cultural scene, renowned for its breathtaking architecture and world-class performances. This collaboration merges the theatre’s rich legacy with Rebel Nell’s mission of creating employment and opportunity for women transitioning out of shelter living. The collection offers a rare opportunity for Detroiters and art enthusiasts to carry a piece of the city’s heritage in a truly special form.

Amy Peterson, co-founder of Rebel Nell, shared her excitement about the partnership: “We’re honored to create something truly special that celebrates the Fox Theatre, especially as the holidays approach. Each limited-edition piece from this collection carries the history of one of Detroit’s most beloved landmarks, making it a meaningful and one-of-a-kind gift for loved ones. We hope these pieces inspire and empower, just as our mission at Rebel Nell does.”

Joshua Sanborn, director of the Ilitch Companies Foundation, echoed this sentiment: “This collaboration allows us to connect people with the Fox Theatre’s rich history in an innovative way, while also supporting the community through the Ilitch Companies Foundation.”

The exclusive collection will launch on November 13 for early access for Rebel Rewards Members and November 14 for the general public at Rebel Nell retail stores and online at rebelnell.com just in time for the holidays, making it the perfect choice for unique, meaningful and impactful gifts.
