Rochester Museum of Fine Arts Partners with Back Hill Beer Co. to Launch New Gallery Space

October 7, 2024

The Rochester Museum of Fine Arts (RMFA), in collaboration with Back Hill Beer Co., is excited to announce the debut of a new exhibition space inside the brewery’s taproom. Located within the historic Gonic Mill, the taproom now features a gallery wall designed to showcase the work of regional artists.

Volunteers recently refreshed the gallery wall with new paint, lighting, and vinyl lettering to mark the partnership between RMFA and Back Hill Beer Co. The gallery will feature rotating exhibitions to celebrate local talent, beginning with the works of Zach Tinker, an artist from New Ipswich, New Hampshire.

Back Hill Beer Co., founded in October 2020, recently celebrated its 4th Anniversary with the release of a custom Double IPA and the unveiling of the new gallery. The small craft brewery specializes in hop-forward and mixed-fermentation ales, including American IPAs, sour beers, and more.

The taproom, located at 73 Pickering Road, Gonic, NH, is open Thursday through Sunday. For more information, visit www.backhillbeer.com.
