The Brewery Art Colony

The Brewery Art Colony is a large artistic residential project on a former industrial site with many converted warehouse and factory buildings. The spaces now serve as artist studios, apartments, galleries, and small restaurants.

The site started in 1903 as a power plant and was later used as a brewery. By the late 1900s, artists began converting the old buildings and transformed it into an arts center.

The place is home to many artists working in different fields like painting, sculpture, photography, and music. You can visit their studios and see their works directly as you walk through the buildings.

You can visit the artist studios and galleries on certain days when open events take place. It helps to check in advance when these events happen, as not all areas are always open to the public.

An old chimney from the original industrial facility still stands on the grounds and reminds visitors of the site's past. This structure connects the history of the place with its current use as an arts center.
