It is with great pride and excitement that we announce The Art of Craft Beer show coming this summer to New Haven, CT. The show will run from July 14th through the 29th. Our events will be hosted at the famed Kehler Liddell Gallery and bring The 16oz. Canvas - the Art of Craft Beer podcast to life by showcasing many of our great guests from the past.

These are the artists and designers who help bring our favorite beers and breweries to life. Over this two week installation we will have unique opportunities to engage with the space and experience their art and passion in 3-D. You will have the opportunity to meet many of these artists at our opening night event as well as enjoy live music and enjoy craft beer together over the run.

We are also very proud to announce that we are working with the CT ASRC (Autism Services and Resources Connecticut). Proceeds from this event will go to this amazing non-profit that has helped so many including my own family.

When I first started thinking about this project and how to make it a reality, Craig and his work at New England (Brewing Co.) was one of the artists of inspiration. As a self admitted NEBCO fanboy, I had grown to love the work of Craig and saw him as a fixture at one of my favorite breweries. With that said, I didn't have any expectations to get to interview him, but upon reaching out he couldn't have been nicer and humble about the inquiry.

This helped to validate what I hope you've come to enjoy here at the 16oz. Canvas, great people and great stories. This was one of our first interviews that we did live and it was great to be able to connect in 3-D at NEBCO. We enjoyed a few of their great beers and got chatting about Craig, his career, his art and his outlook on life. I'm sure you'll it enjoy it as much as I did.
