The Gallery Wall
We believe that brewing beer is as much an art as it is a science and as such we have a deep appreciation for those who pursue the creation of their own art.
When we were building our taproom we knew we were going to have a big white wall to work with. Very early on the decision was made to keep the wall white and the longer we looked at that wall the more it looked like the perfect place to hang art, and the germ of an idea was born. It’s taken a little to make it reality but starting January 2025 we will be showcasing local artist work.
Located to the right of the main entrance and running the whole length of the taproom the gallery wall will showcase different artists work through the year. In some cases the artist may be showing their work and in others cases pieces may be for sale. In All art and any money for any pieces sold are the sole property of the artist.
Preference for the gallery space will be given to local artists but which artists and the type of work shown are at the sole discretion of Meyers Creek Brewing Company. Please be aware we do not have the space to accommodate sculptures. If your interested in showcasing your work with us please reach out to Gretta Barnwell at gretta@meyerscreekbrewing.ca
Showing in March 2025
From the majestic landscapes of Prince Edward County to the vast mountainous region of British Columbia, award winning Canadian national photographer, Mark E. Hopper, captures the aura that surrounds his subjects.
His photography is a testament to his passion for exploration, his creative vision, and fierce sense of determination. Combined with his keen eye for unique compositions, these qualities have resulted in a lively portfolio of cutting-edge images.
Whether it’s wading waist-deep into the Bay of Quinte or chasing down storm clouds from dusk till dawn, Mark is known for his adventurous spirit which draws him to the extraordinary. Highlighting his collection are his signature photographs of his wildlife and the desolate churches that pepper the County roads where a vibrant community once worshipped.
Mark moved from his home town of Toronto to Belleville, Ontario in 2005, where he discovered a beautiful canvas waiting to be captured. Self-taught, his dedication to his passion is unwavering.
His images have been featured in many publications across Canada and his work has received numerous awards and accolades.
Artist’s Statement
“There is in all human beings a deep connection with the natural environment that we sometimes get too busy to appreciate. My hope is that through my photography people will rediscover the precious connection they can have with the wonders that surround us.”
