Bartender Holiday Gift Guide

As new "Stay-at-Home" orders take effect in Los Angeles and across the country, the hospitality industry is once again feeling the brunt of measures designed to slow the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. The timing of the closures is especially cruel - the holidays would normally be one of the busiest seasons of the year for restaurants and bars. 

With no financial relief coming from local, state or federal officials, many bartenders have turned to their creative side to try and make ends meet. To support bartenders during this extraordinarily difficult time, the Art Beyond the Glass Bartender Holiday Gift Guide features a wide range of handmade gifts and services offered by bartenders, including:

  • Handmade masks by Michiko Torres (@sewthefxckwhat) and Kim Snow (@sewbysnow)

  • Original inkwiped monotypes by Anna Wingfield (@awingding)

  • Acrylic-on-wood pet portraits by Amber Adcock (@amberadcock)

  • Accessories such as jewelry by Marissol Martins (@solsearchjewelry) and leather goods by Adan Maldonado (@nadamas.co)

Bartenders interested in being featured in the gift guide can fill out this Google Form: https://forms.gle/MTEPwocA36FU5C678

Shoppers can browse the Bartender Holiday Gift Guide below, or direct download the PDF at this link.

NOTE: ABTG is not selling the items listed in the gift guide, which is meant to be a directory and not a sales portal. Shoppers interested in buying gifts can reach out to individual bartenders with the contact info provided in the guide.

Happy holidays and thank you for supporting bartenders!
