This is why every month we host a free exhibit in our gallery space showcasing local creative talent. Whether established artists (see Kieslowski in Posters, pre-TIFF party and our upcoming Toronto Draws TinTin November Exhibit) or showing for the first time we welcome you to submit your work!

The artists receive the following:

Our art gallery space for a  month (commission and rent free)

Opening night reception (food, music and bar included)

Assistance with your art show promotion and getting media’s attention

In return, one piece of work from the exhibition is added to our permanent collection and displayed for the 100,000 annual visitors to see.

It’s a win-win!

We’ve been lucky to have such amazing artists display their work in our brewery space! Just take a look:

And how can we forget this amazing skateboard painting of our office manager, Nancy on display by her desk?!
