It all started when I ran into a friend in the supermarket. She told me she used to go to an art class years ago and absolutely loved it. She met her friends there, they had a few giggles and learnt some interesting stuff and generally had a great time.

I thought that’s exactly what creative people need. Somewhere to meet up with mates that’s affordable and then doing something they enjoy. So we’re excited to offer new paint & sip sessions on Friday mornings for $30pp

Anyone can attend any session but we’ve called them different names so like minded people are more likely to attend and that’s how friendships grow.
We will turn on the urn, take out the cups and saucers and play with paint.
