Cooper Johnson, owner of Bricksworth Beer, passed away unexpectedly on June 19th at the age of 32. I am a friend of the family posting this for visibility.

Cooper was a husband and a father to a young son, so we're throwing An Art Fair to help out with his son Arthur's future college funds.

The Johnson family has been the heart of the North Loop food service community and vital to the Minnesota beer community at large, so, with the help of Bricksworth, Smack Shack, and workers and regulars in the community, we wanted to show our love and support for Franny and Arthur.

Join us Thursday, August 13th from 5-9 pm for a FREE event; we don't just mean free admission; all food and activities will be free!
We'll have a shrimp boil, mac n' cheese bar, salads, flavored lemonade, henna tattoos, cakewalk, painting, friendship bracelets, silent auction, & face painting.

Kiddos and doggos welcome, of course. 100% of donations will go towards Arthur's future college fund.
