Paws & Palettes: Paint & Sip Event for ‘tabanni’ Rescue Dogs!
Paint a rescue dog, sip coffee at Buunni Inwood, and support tabanni’s animals in Amman. No experience needed. All supplies provided.
Paws & Palettes is a family-friendly paint and sip experience built around animals who need homes. For our first event, we’re partnering with Tabanni, a volunteer-run rescue based in Amman, Jordan, and Buunni Coffee in Inwood.
You’ll choose one of three rescue dogs as your model: Anbar lost a front leg to a break that healed wrong. Atlas is a senior who was found unable to walk. Kulaib was hit by a car and made a full, remarkable recovery. You’ll work from large printed reference photos, so no dogs are at the event and none are put under stress.
No painting experience is expected. Most people who come have never picked up a brush, and that’s the point! Bring a friend, take two hours, make something to help our furry friends get adopted.
PAINT N’ SIP Hosted by Daniel Bonilla
$45 – All supplies included. Available on-line and in cash at the door. Includes one complimentary beer or glass of wine. Feel free to BYOB.
Join Inwood Artworks for a fun Paint and Sip at Inwood Art Works Studio! We will celebrate the fall harvest with a 11 x 14 painting . Sit back and relax and let’s paint!
Paint and Sip at the Studio is the perfect way to relax, meet uptown locals, and get creative right in your own neighborhood. Everyone is welcomed. Bring a date, friends, or family to unwind and get inspired. The session will include step by step instruction and all the supplies you need to design your own masterpiece!
What better place to paint than at a Studio! Paint and Sip will be led by a local teaching artist. Adults will be amazed at what they can create with little help from the instructor. No painting experience is necessary, just a willingness to have fun. Sessions will last 2.5 hours and paintings will be completed in Acrylic on canvas. As we begin getting our creative juices flowing, applicants will be encouraged to share their successes. It is suggested that the attendees where clothes they don’t mind getting paint on. By the end of the session artwork will be ready to take home and hang on the wall.
There is no experience necessary! Just a willingness to have fun!
