Get Lit: Art of the Cocktail

Raise a glass and grab your sketchbook for Get Lit: The Art of Cocktails. 

Author and illustrator Sarah Becan (Let’s Make Bread!, Let’s Make Dumplings!) visits Get Lit to share a live demonstration of her favorite cocktail recipes from her newest book, Let’s Make Cocktails!, followed by a hands-on drawing session learning to illustrate the same cocktail in her unique, playful style. Throughout the night, enjoy interactive stations, sketch challenges, and fun games that let you sip, sketch, and mingle with fellow cocktail and art lovers. Books will be available for purchase at the event.

This is 21+ event. Attendees must show a valid photo ID at the door to enter.
