Last Sip of Summer
Summer doesn't last forever — but this painting will.
Join us on August 8th at the Williamsburg Winery Tasting Room for a laid-back painting party that captures everything we love about these last golden days. We'll paint a juicy watermelon slice on the beach, framed by a lush monstera leaf and a vibrant hibiscus flower — with a sweet heart-shaped hole right through the middle, because summer deserves to be felt, not just seen.
No experience needed — just come ready to relax, create, and leave with a painting you'll actually love. Our instructor will guide you step by step through the full piece, so even first-timers will walk away feeling like an artist.
🍉 All painting supplies included
🍷 Wine and drinks available for purchase at the bar
