Today, on National Beer Day, we’re celebrating our unique history as the only accredited art museum that is housed in a former brewery! 🍻
Learn more about our history at Bricks & Beer: A Preservation Month Tour on May 1.
Tickets are $30 for non-members or $25 for members. This tour will reveal the nineteenth-century brewery’s roots and the architectural ingenuity that shaped our Museum’s modern identity. The tour will conclude on our River Pavilion with a cold beer and the opportunity to continue the conversation. Space is limited—reserve your spot today!
