Bring your friends and enjoy a night of artistic expression at our Paint & Sip at The Hall CP! Join local artist collective, Paint Amore, as they take you step-by-step through creating your very own masterpiece. No art experience required!

Registration includes materials, instruction and one drink ticket for a beverage of your choice (soda, beer, wine, rail mixed drink). Painting begins promptly at the scheduled start time, so we recommend that you arrive 15-30 minutes early to get settled. This event is recommended for individuals 18 years or older.

This event is part of The Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center’s NextNOW Fest 2023 and is open to the public.
