What is Paint & Sip ?
Our guide will lead you step-by-step through the creation of your own beautiful painting. No prior experience is needed—just a willingness to have fun! All the while you can sip on your favourite BYO drinks and nibbles while you chat and paint away.
You can customize your artwork to make it uniquely yours. Whether you’re a seasoned painter or a beginner, our sessions are designed to be enjoyable and stress-free.
We provide all the necessary art supplies, including canvases, paints, brushes, aprons and easels. Plus, we offer drink ware, plates, fridge and complementary tea and instant coffee. Just bring your favourite snacks and drinks. There is a bluetooth speaker so you can pop on your favourite tunes and bob through the session.
