Screens ‘n’ Suds Announces its Fourth Annual Richmond, VA Fall Event Schedule

Screens ‘n’ Suds’ mission is to enhance appreciation for craft beer and art while raising money for charity. “Screens” as in screen printing—posters, t-shirts and the like ‘n’ “Suds” as in beer—malt, hops, yeast and water. Since 2009, Screens ‘n’ Suds activities have generated over $50,000 for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and other charities through sales of beer-inspired art donated by artists from around the country, MS Walks, beer dinners, and events.

Saturday 11/3/2012 is the Screens ‘N’ Suds Big Event from 4pm-9pm at Gallery5

  • No cover charge, suggested $5 donation.  All ages, 21+ to drink.

  • In celebration of Screens ‘n’ Suds 4th year, the 2012 fall print edition theme will be “Quad.”  In Suds terms, Quad is short for Quadrupel, a trappist style strong ale of great strength and flavor.  The strongest of the four common trappist styles, the Quadrupel is generally a dark ale with big flavors of dark fruit.  In Screens terms, artists explore the artistic world of “Quad” or “Four.”

AJ Masthay Screens and Suds poster “Brew Master” on sale NOW

From AJ Masthay:

I love beer. So when a great organization like Screens & Suds asks if I’d be willing to create a beer related print for their fundraiser, it’s a no-brainer. This one goes out to all the artists who prefer to use hops and barley as their inks, and clean, crisp water as their canvas – to the BrewMasters!

These five color linoleum block prints are from an edition of 120 and are printed on archival quality Canson Edition paper stock. A portion of the edition has already sold out at last weekend’s Screens and Suds event in Virginia. My allotment of prints will be available on MasthayStudios.com this Wednesday, November 9th, at 12 noon EST. Is it too early to mention what a great holiday gift these would make?… Yes, yes it is, but I said it anyway didn’t I… As always feel free to email me at info@masthaystudios.com with any questions, concerns, comments, etc. Oh and by the way, I have begun work on my first ever quadtych (4 prints that work together to form a giant freakin image). I’ll let you guess what event its for….. stay tuned for more info!
