Victory & Dogfish Head to Host Beer and Art Exhibit at CBC 2013
Victory & Dogfish Head to Host Beer and Art Exhibit – Amber Waves: Illustrating the artistry of brewing at the 2013 Craft Brewer’s Conference in Washington D.C.
DOWNINGTOWN, PA – Victory Brewing Company and Dogfish Head Craft Brewery are pleased to announce their plans to co-host a non-traditional art exhibit to celebrate the artistry of craft beer during the 2013 Craft Brewer’s Conference.
On March 28, 2013, at the District Architecture Center in Washington, D.C., 25 American breweries will share their beer and display a piece of commissioned art. Event attendees will experience art in its standard form (paintings, sculptures, etc.) as well as in its liquid form, beer. All of the beers being served will be amber in color, looking nearly identical while being vastly diverse in flavor.
A truly special component to this event that will draw crowds is each brewery must accompany their liquid art with a visual piece that represents their brand/brewery. Whether it is something currently displayed on their home turf or a piece they have commissioned for the event, each brewery is encouraged to donate their companion art piece to the silent auction benefiting wounded military personnel through The Fallen Heroes Fund.
“ I have always believed that brewing is an art form,” said Victory Brewing Company President and Brewmaster Bill Covaleski. “By pairing American-crafted beers with visual art we hope to expose a larger audience to the art of flavor.”
