SPEAKEASY HAPPY HOUR

May 2, 2026 – May 30, 2026

Opening Reception May 2, 4 – 7

Curated by Luke Whittaker, Speakeasy Happy hour features six painters Abbi Kenny, Eden Taff, Hannah Lupton Reinhard, Luke Morrison, Noelle Timmons, and Sylvie Mayer.

Speakeasy Happy Hour offers a unique opportunity to engage an audience in the perception of art by exploring the question, How can art be tasted, smelt, or touched when it demands the privacy of its personal space. Curation exists to take disparate artworks and initiate an emotional or physical response through the viewer's personal experience. Speakeasy Happy Hour endeavors to bridge the physical boundaries between art and the audience by pairing specific drinks with the already curated selection of artwork. Gallery-goers are encouraged to investigate the artwork, soaking in colors, scenes, and figures while exploring its essence captured in the paired cocktail’s taste, smell, and touch.
