Meet Lauren Hazel: Our 2025 Artist in Residence

Lost Grove’s Artist in Residence program was created to use something we love (beer) to support something else we love (local art). This year, we’re thrilled to partner with the incredibly talented Lauren Hazel of Lofthouse Creative! Her designs have blown us away, and her passion for helping people forge meaningful connections aligns perfectly with our mission. Be sure to watch for barrel-aged beer releases throughout the year, each featuring artwork by this amazing designer!

About lauren

Design for me is about more than just aesthetics, it’s about telling a business’s unique story in a way that’s both beautiful and authentic. I’m deeply passionate about using my creativity to help local businesses stand out and thrive in a way that resonates with their communities. That’s what makes the work I get to do so rewarding: I get to fuse my love for design with my commitment to supporting businesses that make a real impact.

When I’m not designing, you’ll find me exploring Idaho’s rugged wilderness. This is where I go to disconnect and draw inspiration. As an avid outdoorswoman, I bring that same sense of exploration and adventure into my work. Whether I’m painting a landscape or designing for a business, I enjoy the challenge of turning these immense and gorgeous visions into reality.

Being part of a team that values individuality, curiosity, and continuous growth is something I truly cherish. We don’t just create–we connect. I’m proud to help local businesses build lasting relationships with their communities, one thoughtfully designed project at a time.
