About this event

A relaxed evening of nature-inspired painting, drinks, and new connections. This event is in collaboration with Girls Who Walk Preston.

Looking to meet new people in a calm, creative setting? Sip & Paint is a friendly night designed to help you unwind, get inspired by nature, and connect with others over paint, snacks, and conversation.

We’ll start the evening with a gentle social mixer—conversation cards and group chats will help you break the ice and start chatting with others (don’t worry if you come solo—most people do!).

Then it’s onto the painting! You'll have full creative freedom to paint what you like, with nature-themed inspiration images provided if you’d like a spark of guidance. Each guest gets a vinyl, paints, and brushes—everything you need to dive in. We are choosing to paint on old vinyl to be more susitainable that traditional canvas and do something a little different than the traditional sip and paint events, we will also have an artist video recording to follow step by step or you can do your own thing.

To keep things low-waste and low-cost, there won't be a frame included, and we’re using minimal-impact supplies wherever possible.

🖌️ Two ticket options available:

  1. Painting & Snacks
