A Tip-Top Art on Tap

The second annual Art on Tap has come and gone, and with it a sold-out crowd of people who love art, beer, and food!

There were seven combinations of craft beer, appetizer, and artwork to sample, plus 14 works by video artists and a killer set by the band Greenland.

At the end of the night, everybody voted on their favorite art-beer-food pairings. The Judges’ Choice Award went to Fair Winds Brewing Company and the Light Horse Restaurant, and Brothers Craft Brewing and RedRocks won the Popular Vote Award!
