Drink And Paint New York Info

By Allyson Burke


There are lots of thinks you and friends or family members can do for an afternoon or night out. If you want something that is out of the ordinary but still a lot of fun for everyone, then consider a drink and paint New York class. This is a great way to have a drink and create a piece of art that you may not have realized you had the skills to make.

The concept is actually quite simple, a small or sometimes large group of people get together and paint a picture based on a famous painting or perhaps a lesser known one. A professional artist will show you and all the guests how to paint a really great replica of your chosen piece on a real canvas. You will get periodic breaks to go have a glass of wine or a nibble.

There is a misconception among some people that you have to already be an artist or at least have painting skills in order to take part in one of these classes. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, people who have never picked up a paintbrush can still do a session because the teacher breaks down the painting in a way that makes it easy for beginners to recreate. You will be happy to hang your painting on your wall.

Most of these classes are BYOB, which means bring your own bottle. That means you have to bring a bottle of wine or champagne in order to have a drink. If your class includes lots of other people, some decide to share their wine and try other people's wines, which can help forge new friendships as you learn about new wines you may not have heard of.

You don't have to worry about bringing any kind of art supplies because the cost of the class includes all of this. This saves you time and takes all the pressure off of you. All you need to bring is the bottle of whatever you want to drink and a snack if you like, and you are ready to be transformed into an artist.

These classes can vary in size, but if you have a small group or if its just you, there will likely be a few other groups in the same class. Weekday classes are sometimes smaller because a lot of people try to book weekend classes when they are not at work. Keep this in mind when you call or go online to schedule your session.

Some people don't want to paint with people they don't know, or perhaps you have a really large group and wish to have your own session. You can ask the owner for a special closed session where only you and your party will be painting. There may be a discount if your group is large enough, so call to try and get the best deal.

A drink and paint New York class is a great way to have fun with friends and do something out of the ordinary. It's a fun way to spend a few hours and will net you a painting to hang on your wall to boot. Few experiences offer all of this in just the span of a few hours, so be sure to book your spot for a session today.
