We’ve been running events since 2016, and while you might know us as a fun way to unwind with a paintbrush and a glass of something, there’s a lot more that goes on behind the scenes. Here are a few things that make us a little different…
1. Still Run by the Two of Us
We’re not a franchise or a shareholder-owned company. Just us—Alice and John—still leading the way with the help of our small, brilliant team. Every decision is made with care, creativity, and a lot of paint-covered post-it notes.
2. We Believe in Balance
Our team of 45 work part-time by choice. We’re big believers in work-life balance and how vital it is for wellbeing, creativity, and sustainable energy. No burnout culture here—just good vibes and flexible working.
3. A Seriously Amazing Team
Our team spans all walks of life, from 20 to 70 years old, with diverse backgrounds in art, teaching, design, and beyond. And yes—90% of them are women. 💪
4. We Found Our Creative Home
In March last year, we moved into our very own HQ: a warehouse that we’ve transformed into a space where we can make, create, and collaborate. It’s our creative nest—and it means we can do even more hands-on work for every event.
5. No Pre-Drawn Canvases
We guide you step-by-step, but we don’t use pre-drawn outlines. That’s intentional. We want you to explore your own style, your own brushstrokes, and your own take on the painting. Everyone’s finished piece is completely unique—and we love that.
6. One of the First to Do It
We were among the first to offer casual painting events in the UK. Since 2016, we’ve hosted over 3,500 events and welcomed creatives from more than 20 countries.
7. It’s Not Just Paint and Sip
Yes, you can enjoy a glass of something while you paint—but we also offer family events, corporate team-building, hen dos, hybrid sessions, and paint at home kits. Art is for everyone.
8. We’re All About Inclusivity
Whether you haven’t picked up a paintbrush since school, or you’re a full-time creative—our events are designed to welcome everyone. No judgment, no pressure. Just encouragement and colour.
9. Proudly Independent, Passionately Personal
From Brighton to Edinburgh, our events are hosted in welcoming pubs and venues across the UK. We work directly with every host and artist to make each session memorable, relaxing, and totally you.
Thanks for painting with us—whether it's your first time or your fiftieth, we’re so happy you're here. 💛
