About Us
How many of us create all kinds of art as children, then stop developing our artistic side as we mature into adults?
Imagine having the opportunity to unleash your creative energy in an informal and friendly environment.
A fun night of socialising with friends, following the simple step by step instructions of a master artist from blank canvas to creating your very own masterpiece.
A painting you can be proud of and take home at the end of the night!
