Paint and sip session run by Black Girls Space at Palmer 111, with paint, easels and drinks provided.
Black Girls Space are hosting a Paint and Sip at Palmer 111 in Reading on Tuesday 10 November, running from 6:30pm through to 9:00pm. It's a workshop that puts painting and socialising on equal footing, and the organisers describe it as 'a night of yapping and painting' — which tells you as much about the chatting as the art.
They've got the practical side covered: the paint, the easels and the drinks are all provided, so you don't need to turn up with your own kit. All that's left for you to bring is the creativity and the commentary. The 'yapping' part is a big part of the draw here; it's as much about the conversation and the company as it is about what ends up on the canvas.
If you've never done a paint-and-sip before, the format is straightforward. You get your own space to paint while you chat with the people around you, and since the materials are sorted, you can just focus on the painting and the people. It's a low-pressure way to spend an evening, whether you're someone who paints regularly or someone who hasn't touched a brush since school.
