Keely Finucane created her cocktail series while she was the Artist-In-Residence at the Kimpton Hotel Palomar in Downtown, Phoenix.
“For centuries, cocktails have been a social lubricant, providing people with the liquid courage to step outside of one’s comfort zone and strike up a conversation with a complete stranger. Cocktails are often the initiator of the first social interaction which can lead to long lasting relationships. No matter if your preferred drink is a cold brewski or a classic martini, you feel at ease, confident, and open to making new connections. In a world where everyone is staring at a screen, cocktails give us the opportunity to destress, reflect, connect and experience life with rose colored glasses.” - Keely Finucane
