Alliance for the Arts Announces Arts On Tap Culinary Artists

The Alliance for the Arts is excited to announce the return of its annual fundraiser Arts On Tap on Saturday, Nov. 9 on the Alliance campus at 10091 McGregor Blvd. Fort Myers, FL 33919 from 7 – 10 p.m. Now in its third year, Arts On Tap is a taste of creativity in the Alliance gallery featuring the craft of local brewers and hand-selected wines benefiting the Alliance for the Arts.

This year includes tasty treats from culinary favorites The American Grilled Cheese Kitchen, Downtown House of Pizza, Kings Kitchen and The Standard, with more to be announced.

Participating crafters include Big Blue Brewing, Bury Me Brewing, Coastal Dayz Brewery, Eight Foot Brewing, Millennial Brewing Company, Momentum Brewhouse, Naples Beach Brewery, Palm City Brewing, and  Point Ybel Brewing Company. For one night only, guests can delight their senses with locally-handcrafted beers, hand-selected wines and culinary creations in our vibrant gallery. The evening will also feature an exclusive new brew born from a creative collaboration between the Alliance and the award-winning brewmasters at Momentum Brewhouse.

“Arts On Tap is the chance to explore the Alliance after dark and experience your not-so-typical fundraiser,” says development and marketing director Jessica Wisdom.  “As our local art scene and craft beer scene has grown, so has Arts On Tap. The evening is all about celebrating local artists, artisans and businesses redefining southwest Florida.”

Last year, Arts On Tap attracted 200 guests and raised over $40,000. Tickets are $100 and include unlimited tastings from participating breweries, culinary creations, gallery admission, music, a silent auction and games. Arts On Tap is for ages 21 and older. A state-issued form of I.D. is required.
