ABOUT US
BEWM COMMUNITY
& IMPACT
Built from Austin's street art scene. Rooted in the belief that coffee, creativity, and community can do something good in the world.
OUR BELIEF
Create, Connect, and Lift Each Other Up
BEWM Coffee grew out of Austin's street art scene. Our mission is to bring people into a creative community through great coffee, original art, and support for mental health.
Sketchy Thursdays
Creating Art. Building Community. Supporting Mental Health.
Presented by BEWM Coffee Company and its nonprofit partner, Something Good Initiative.
Sketchy Thursdays is a free, weekly creative gathering at Something Cool Studios in Austin, Texas. Led by local street artist Warclass, the program welcomes artists of all ages and skill levels to draw, paint, collaborate, and connect.
More than an art gathering, Sketchy Thursdays creates a space where creativity builds confidence, friendships, and a sense of belonging. By removing financial barriers and bringing people together each week, the program helps combat social isolation and supports emotional well-being.
Through Sketchy Thursdays, BEWM and Something Good Initiative are strengthening Austin's creative community while advancing their shared commitment to artists and mental health.
Come Sketch With Us!
Everyone is welcome! Whether you're an experienced artist, just getting started, or simply looking for a creative community, we'd love to have you join us.
Sketchy Thursdays is completely free, and no artistic experience is necessary.
Just show up, grab a pencil, a paintbrush, or a spray can, and be part of something good.
Every Thursday, 7–11 p.m., at Something Cool Studios in Austin, Texas.
Coffee for Austin
Coffee that shows up where it’s needed
Every month since BEWM began, we’ve delivered hundreds of pounds of coffee to Austin organizations serving people experiencing homelessness, food insecurity, and crisis. For many of the people these organizations serve, a hot cup of coffee is a small moment of comfort and a reason to sit down, connect, and feel welcome.
We don’t do it for attention. We do it because these organizations are on the front lines every day, and coffee is something we know how to give.
Where our coffee goes
- Mobile Loaves & Fishes
- Community First Village
- Sunrise Homeless Navigation Center
- Angel House Soup Kitchen
- Austin Blessings Co-op
Coffee has always been about more than a drink. It’s how people gather, connect, and care for one another. We can only give coffee because we sell it. Every bag of BEWM you buy helps make these deliveries possible.
