About

Join us for a special evening of creativity and culture as we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with a Frida Kahlo-inspired paint & sip! Paint your very own version of Kahlo's iconic Still Life with Parrot with step-by-step guidance from our teaching artist, Mimi Doyo.

No experience? No problem! We welcome all skill levels. This class is about having fun and making memories, rather than producing a “perfect” painting. We encourage you to paint in a way that feels good for you!

Doors 6:30pm | Paint & Sip 7pm – 9:30pm

This event is 21+
