Sip and Paint is a fun art experience where people gather to enjoy drinks while painting on a canvas. It’s normally done in a calm enviroment with good music, beginner-friendly, and designed to bring people together requiring no art skills needed.

How It Works

At a typical Sip and Paint session, you’re handed a canvas, apron, brushes, paint, and a glass of any drink of choice. A facilitator or instructor guides the group through a simple painting—step by step—while everyone follows along, sips, laughs, and gets creative.

The focus isn’t about perfection, it’s more of the experience. It’s about unwinding and connecting while been creative.
