Illustrator James Stitt has been the man behind San Francisco’s Anchor Brewing and their unique beer labels for the last 40 years. The Seattle native and former Navy man was a technical illustrator for Boeing and has served as art director for many top advertising agencies. Each year, Stitt draws up a new label for Anchor Brewing’s Christmas Ale, and his handmade designs perfectly reflect Anchor’s homemade brews. This holiday season, Stitt’s ‘Iconic Labels’ will be spotlighted in a proper museum setting, opening with a reception on Saturday, Nov. 12, at Napa Valley Museum, 55 Presidents Circle, Yountville. 5pm. Free for museum members; $7 for non-members. 707.944.0500.
