Sip & Wrap at Bar 98

Sip & Wrap are hosting a painting and drinking session at Bar 98 on Thursday 10 December, starting at 19:00. It's one of those nights that puts the social side of things first: you get a drink in one hand and a paintbrush in the other, and you spend the evening working on a canvas while you chat with whoever's sitting around you.

If you've never done a session like this, the format is pretty straightforward. You're not expected to be an artist to get stuck in; the whole point is to paint and drink at the same time, so it's more about the process than the finished piece. You'll have your materials laid out in front of you, and the evening is as much about the company as it is about what ends up on the canvas.

It's a mid-week one, too, which makes it a decent shout for a Thursday night out with friends rather than waiting for the weekend. If you're looking for something to do that doesn't involve just sitting in a pub, this is a good way to spend a few hours.

Bar 98 is at 98 Herbert Street in Pontardawe, SA8 4ED, just on the edge of Swansea. Entry is free, so you can just turn up on the night. It kicks off at 19:00 on Thursday 10 December.
