"Express Yourself" Paint and Sip evenings

Tracey from Otaki District

🎨 “Express Yourself” Paint and Sip evenings: Unleash Your Inner Artist! 🍷
Join us for a night of creativity, colour, and a touch of indulgence! Our Sip & Paint evening is the perfect mix of art and relaxation — no experience needed, just bring your sense of fun (and your favourite drink!).
You’ll be guided step-by-step by an experienced art teacher who knows how to make painting easy, enjoyable, and full of personality. Together, we’ll turn a blank canvas into your very own creative masterpiece — with plenty of laughs and sips along the way.
All art materials are provided — you just bring the good vibes. Whether you come solo, with friends, or as part of a group (great end of year office party option!)... it’s the perfect way to unwind, connect, and let your imagination flow.
So pour yourself a glass, pick up a brush, and let’s make something beautiful — one sip at a time!

Scan the QR code attached or search www.facebook.com... for further details.
Sessions limited to 20 people.
