So I curate an art show of work by breweries, and it opens June 26th. You maybe already know that. But I run this blog, so here's the press release anyway:
GoggleWorks Hosts Third Annual Design, Drink & Be Merry
One-of-a-Kind Exhibition Dedicated to the Art of the Craft Brew Movement

To kick off the exhibition, the GoggleWorks will host a Design, Drink and Be Merry Beer Tasting and Fundraiser in the Cohen Gallery. The event will be held on Saturday, June 26, 2010, with a VIP reception from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. and the main event from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Proceeds from this special event benefit the GoggleWorks After School Arts Program (ASAP), which allows students from the Reading School District, ages 6-17, to take free art courses in a safe and constructive environment. The evening will include a silent auction, food, entertainment and a traditional beer tasting, as well as affordable Design, Drink & Be Merry-themed artwork from local artists. An award will be given to the brewery voted “best in show.”
Participating breweries exhibiting in Design, Drink & Be Merry range from the far-reaching Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. in Chico, CA, to Stoudts Brewing Co. in nearby Adamstown, PA. Some breweries are entering their third year of participation including Schmaltz Brewing Co., Fegley’s Brew Works and Troegs Brewing Co. Other breweries, such as Furthermore Beer and Gritty McDuff’s, are first-time participants. Sierra Nevada and Furthermore Beer have donated original artworks, which will be auctioned to the highest bidder on June 26.
A complete list of the participating breweries, as well as information on the Design, Drink & Be Merry event are available online at www.designdrinkandbemerry.com.
