Our art studio is open and bringing social painting fun to your neighbourhood

Silke from Heart for Art

Hi Neighbours - If you've ever noticed the super bright red roof on the hill above the airport, it's just been converted into an art studio!

Come join us for a fun 3 hour social painting class where we’ll show you, step by step, how to create the days featured painting. You’ll leave with a massive smile and your own finished artwork. It's totally easy, heaps of fun and you don't need any experience. We'll even provide all your materials and afternoon tea. Awesome!
Lot's of local based paintings to choose from - you can paint Island Bay, Oriental Bay, Wellington by night or any of our others. Check out our upcoming events on our website and choose your favourite to create.

Come paint with us, we'd love to meet you.

Silke Hendel
Chief Paint Slinger and Owner
