About this Event

Sober Opossum Paint & Sip (18+)
A cozy, creative night with a very special nocturnal muse

Join us for our monthly Sober Opossum Paint & Sip, a relaxed, alcohol-free, 18 and up art night designed for adults who want to get creative, unwind, and spend time with one of nature’s most charming sweeties - an opossum!

This painting session is beginner-friendly and all about having fun. We’ll provide the supplies, gentle instruction, and cozy vibes in the classroom space while we hang out with Opal the opossum! No art experience needed. You bring your curiosity, creativity, and favorite non-alcoholic sip.

What to expect:

  • A painting experience inspired by our opossum friend
  • A calm, welcoming, alcohol-free space (18+)
  • All art materials included
  • Time to relax, socialize, and make something uniquely yours
  • Cozy, slightly feral energy (encouraged)

Sips & snacks:
This is a sober event—feel free to bring your own favorite non-alcoholic drink or treat to enjoy while you paint. You can also bring opal a snack if you'd like - she enjoys organic fruits and veggies.

Whether you’re sober-curious, alcohol-free, or just looking for a chill alternative to traditional paint-and-sip nights, this monthly art night is for you.

Spots are limited - grab yours and come paint with opossums

Accessiblity note: please be aware that our classroom spaces are not wheelchair access at this time. We are happy to accomodate with an accessible classroom space for insect pinning on a case by case basis. Please email us with accessiblity needs before the class at [email protected]

Additional Note: Families are welcome! Children under 18 should be accompanied by an adult. If you or your child would like to simply watch the class without participating, we’d love to have you. You can easily grab guardian/observer tickets at the front desk or online through our ticket portal.
