3rd Annual Design, Drink and Be Merry: June 2010‎ > ‎

Beer Tasting and Fundraiser: June 26, 2010

The annual "Design, Drink and Be Merry" exhibition opens with a beer tasting that raises money for the GoggleWorks After-School Arts Program. The beer tasting fundraiser is an entire evening of entertainment, with music, food, a silent auction, entertainment, and of course fantastic craft beer.

The 2010 "Design, Drink and Be Merry" fundraiser beer tasting will be moving to the larger space of the Cohen Gallery on the first floor. The larger space will allow us to go to a more traditional beer festival model, accommodate more people and share more beer! Everyone will receive their very own commemorative tasting cup for use during the event.
