Herbert's Yard: Sip and Paint

Herbert's Yard is hosting a Halloween-themed Sip and Paint on Thursday 29 October, starting at 19:00. It's exactly what the name suggests: you spend the evening painting while you drink, with a Halloween-themed image waiting on the easel for you to work through. The whole thing is guided, so you're not just left to figure it out on your own.

One of the best bits is that you don't need any prior artistic skills to get involved. It's pitched as a relaxed night rather than a serious art class, so it works as a girls' night, a date, or just something a bit different to do on a Thursday evening. You'll have a Halloween painting to work from, and drinks are available to buy throughout the session, so you can sip and paint at your own pace.

If you're coming hungry, there's food on site from the venue's resident traders, which means you can grab something to eat without having to leave. Between the painting, the drinks, and the food, it's a full evening in one spot.

Tickets start from £27.50 and are available through Skiddle. The session kicks off at 19:00 at Herbert's Yard, 49 Austin Way, Longbridge, Birmingham B31 2QR.
