Paint in the Park

About this event

Looking for a fun way to spend an afternoon, meet new people and get creative? Paint Your Mate is a relaxed outdoor painting experience designed around connection, conversation and creativity.

Whether you come on your own, with a friend or as part of a group, you'll have the opportunity to paint a portrait while enjoying a laid-back afternoon in the park. No artistic experience is needed. This event is all about having fun, trying something new and creating memories.

You can choose to paint a friend you've come with or be paired with someone new on the day. We'll provide all the materials, guidance and encouragement you need. The goal isn't perfection, it's creativity, laughter and connection.

By the end of the session, you'll have your own unique portrait to take home, along with some great memories and perhaps even a few new friendships.
