Celebrate Black History Month with us by using your creativity to tell the stories that define Black culture, contributions, and identities.

They can be someone from history or from the present day, they might be politicians, activists, educators, thought leaders or community leaders – or someone you know personally. This event encourages us to shine a spotlight on the untold stories, the unsung heroes, and the everyday individuals who have made an indelible impact on Black communities.

Brush and Bubbles is a painting workshop where you will learn to paint an original picture on a canvas with step-by-step instructions from our Brush and Bubbles artist! We’ll provide you with everything you need for the workshop to unleash your inner Picasso. If you are a seasoned artist or if you haven’t picked up a paintbrush since school… it doesn’t matter! No experience necessary - just paint, drink and have fun! 🎨🥂

Included:

• All art equipment (apron, easel, paints, paintbrushes and canvas)
• 2 hour session with our Brush and Bubbles artist
• Glass of prosecco! (or a non-alcoholic drink if you prefer)

All you need to bring with you is a portrait photo of the person you’d like to paint.
