<p><strong><strong>Installation / Distillation - a marriage of Art and Whiskey</strong></strong></p><p>Join us for Installation / Distillation—a night celebrating passion and creativity in all its forms. We're turning the Shmidt Spirits distillery in Beltsville, Maryland, into an art space and marketplace where local artists and craftsmen can show off and sell their work to the community. Not only that, but we'll have live playing music all night long as well.</p><p>You can also expect free samples of Shmidt Spirits Distinctively Finished  and Inkwell Whiskey craft spirits, which includes rye, bourbon, and gin. Bottles and craft cocktails will be available for sale, just like the other works of art on display.</p>

<h3>ART</h3><p>We are inviting local artists to apply to take over our distillery and turn it into their own private gallery. We'll be hosting between 10-12 artists of diverse backgrounds and mediums to come to show offf their creations either for appreciation or for sale.</p>
