We're keeping the studio closed a little longer but you can still learn to paint with us online.
Hi everyone and a big woohoo for getting us to lockdown level 2. ๐We're hoping you'll all be so busy enjoying all your favourite shops, cafes, eateries and fave spots again, that you wont mind that we've decided to stay closed a little longer. โ๏ธ๐ฐ๐๐๐
We don't believe we can offer you a quality painting experience and a 100% covid safe environment, so we'd rather wait till we can be absolutely sure we can deliver to our previous awesome Paint Party standard again before we reopen the studio for in person painting classes.
Our goal has always been to share the joy and healing of art with you, and we cant wait to get back to teaching you face to face as soon as we feel we can safely do so. We'll reassess as we get closer to Level 1.
Thanks so much for all the love, messages and ongoing support over the last couple of months. We're having a blast with virtual paint parties, but we really miss having you in the studio and can't wait to serve you in person again soon.
Till then, stay safe, stay healthy, stay happy

Poll: Divisive polls - should they be promoted here ?
Neighbourly encourages divisive opinion polls on pointless arguments constantly to get comments for the papers, should we put up with them trolling users this way ?
-
0% Yes, I'm happy for mindless content to be made.

100% No, I'm fed up with the pointless drama caused for comments.
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? โ
Wellingtonโs identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. Weโve seen the headlines about recent closures, and itโs a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets โ๏ธ
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.

-
44.1% I still indulge at my local cafe
-
9.5% Irrelevant - coffee is not for me
