Last night my friends and I met up to celebrate our best friend Robin’s 25th birthday at Paint n’ Pour! Within the last year or so, we’ve noticed a TON of places such as these that offer group wine and painting sessions (naturally, being the wino’s that we are, we had been dying to try it).
Paint n’ Pour
Registering online with Paint n’ Pour was easy and convenient; you simply go on their website and select the calendar tab which displays all of the dates and paintings for each class. Saturday, September 7th “Starry Night over Boston” was our painting of choice (sign- up tip: if you’re signing up with a group, just call the studio ahead of time and let them know the number in your party, they’ll set it up so that everyone in your group can sit together!).
As soon as we arrived we checked in and made ourselves comfortable at the designated table for our group. Everyone was given a set of paint brushes and instructed to grab an apron and paint supplies from the back of the room. The canvases and other supplies were already set- up and taken care of for us.
It was entertaining, creative and hilarious. If you enjoy drinking wine (or beer) and cracking jokes with a big loud group of women, then this is EXACTLY up your alley! The teachers passed around funky hats and played great music, making it an entertaining experience for all.
FYI, you don’t need to be an artist to take one of these classes! Throughout the course of the night, the teacher provides easy step-by-step instructions, so there’s no reason to feel intimidated to try it! There will always be a few Picasso’s in your class- just try not to look at their paintings and drink more wine- you’ll be fine 🙂 This is a fun, creative experience to share with your closest friends or co- workers while enjoying a tasty glass of wine.
