October 1, 2014 | 5:00-9:00pm

Curated by Sarah Sandman, From Wick To Mott Haven is Scott’s first solo exhibition in the Bronx. It features 26 paintings of which magical elements are a natural part of an otherwise mundane environment, bringing to life an extended cast of characters that stretch from Ian Charles Scott’s hometown of Wick in remote Northern Scotland to his Hostos Community College studio. (Main Gallery)

5/150: Five Former Students of Ian Charles Scott is a collective exhibition showcasing the artwork of five of Scott’s former students Lee Jacob Hilado, Vanessa Isabella, Ptah Miller Osaretin Ugiagbe, and Dennesa Usher — all of whom are now all professional artists. (Project Room)

Beer of the Week 

DRAUGHT  

St-Feuillien La Blanche

Belgium   12oz     6.3%abv     $8

"La Blanche was conceived as blending of Belgian Wit and Abbey Tripel, and the result is a relatively strong, fully aromatic and wonderfully complex beer. It has the fine almost minty herbal character of St. Feuillien Tripel with a luxuriously full-body."

 

Sly Fox Pikeland Pils

Pottstown, PA     16oz 4.9%abv     $7

"A Northern German-style Pilsner brewed with German Pils malt & hopped with German and Czech hops. Light in body, light straw in color & dry."

 

Tröegs Hop Knife

Harvest American IPA

Hershey, PA     16oz       6.2%abv       $7

"Hop Knife recognizes the meticulous, time-honored tradition of hand-harvesting hops at the peak of maturity. Our HopCyclone process creates an inward spiral of hop dispersal during fermentation, releasing a bounty of citrus, resin and tropical aromas."

 

Southern Tier

Tier de Garde Belgian IPA

Lakewood, NY     12oz       8.1%abv     $9

"Citrusy, hoppy and spicy with some sweetness in the aroma, while being dry and effervescent on the tongue. The flavor is bitter and spicy, peppery and grapefruit zest is apparent. Also expect floral and apricot/pear notes."

 

BOTTLES

Sly Fox Phoenix Pale Ale (Can)

Pottstown, PA     12oz   5.1%abv     $7
