ART ON TAP is back!

April 29th, 7-9pm, 2026 at Sam Adams Brewery

Small Works / Art on Tap 2026

ART. ARTISTS. BEER. MORE ART.

Please join us for what WAS our bi-annual fundraiser before Covid (!) to support Jamaica Plain Open Studios!

How many of you remember our last Small Works event – 3 days before the world shut down! Well, we are back open and ready to roll out the artwork and beer once again for this Small Works art show and sale on Wednesday, April 29th, 2026, from 7pm to 9pm.

This is a great opportunity to see and purchase work from fellow artists, meet up with friends – old and new, and enjoy a few snacks and libations while helping to guarantee the future of JPOS!

Artists – we are seeking donations of small works art! See details link for more information.
