Cheaha Brewing
Art Gallery
by Benjamin Nunnally
If you’ve been to Cheaha Brewing Company, you know that there’s an artistry to
the place. Bobby Darin croons over the
radio, singing about a place beyond the
sea, putting out a romantic vibe over the
wooden bar, high windows and brick
walls. The place leaves an impression.
The art ranges from the deeply complex,
like Liz Mullendore’s intricate, colorful
pattern work, to minimalistic, like the
abstract art of Lee Jackson, color explosions commemorated on canvas.
Kevin Arnberg’s “Corn Maidens” hints at
mystic themes, with a trio of crows circling over the three colorful corn ladies.
Arnberg takes a different approach to
“Bluegrass Breakdown,” a lively piece
with a more abstract style that plays
with perspective and depth of field.

But it’s not just the building that’s beautiful. Artwork from several great, local
artists hangs on the walls, featuring a
range of subjects and styles.
