Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced painter, this Halloween-themed Paint with Pals event is the perfect opportunity to relax, get creative and enjoy a cosy autumn evening with friends.
Paint with Pals is a welcoming, informal art event where you can paint at your own pace while enjoying delicious food and drinks from the bar. No pressure, no experience needed—just a chance to switch off, have fun and create something you're proud of.
