The team at Austin Eastciders has come together to create its very own Arts + Craft program which supports local makers, artisans and musicians within various communities.
The Arts + Craft program was launched during the holidays, supporting non-profit organizations from Texas and in New York City through grants for creative events and programming, including:
- Fresh Arts in Houston, Texas
- Artpace in San Antonio, Texas
- Color Me Empowered in Dallas, Texas
- Creative Action in Austin, Texas
- BRIC Arts Media in New York, New York
“Our brand was born out of the creative community in the East Side of Austin. The Arts + Craft program supports our commitment to the artists and artisans in the communities where we play,” says Dave Rule, vice president of marketing at Austin Eastciders.
Since its founding in 2013, Austin Eastciders has been dedicated to supporting emerging artists and artisans, including chefs, mixologists, hobby brewers and cider makers. Eastciders has also partnered in events such as free concerts, outdoor film screenings, art shows, food festivals and other community arts programs.
