International Women's day event and artshow


  • Collective Arts Brewery 207 Burlington St E , Hamilton (map)

It’s no secret there’s still lots of work to be done on inclusivity in the beer world. That’s why it’s so important for our industry to take the lead in showcasing the power, strength and contributions of women both in brewing and outside of it. ⁠

Join us at the brewery on March 8, International Women’s Day, for a special open house to celebrate women! We’ll be launching a beer brewed specially for IWD and opening our month-long pop-up gallery featuring art by women-identifying artists, plus:

  • Body Positive Self Portraiture workshop by Natalie Very B. (Pre-registration required, Eventbrite below)

  • A special tasting of our IWD beer led by the ladies who brewed it! They will also be sticking around to answer any home brewing or industry related questions

  • Movement class led by Michelle Cordeiro of GOODBODYFEEL

  • Zine making workshop led by Chelsea Watt

  • Limited-edition t-shirts featuring work by Natalie Very B.

Proceeds from the sale of our IWD beer and limited-edition t-shirts at the event will be going towards YWCA Hamilton.

Feel free to drop by the brewery any time from 12PM – 6PM to hang out with some incredible women and check out our IWD beer and pop-up gallery, but here’s a schedule for the day:
