Paint Social

Come paint something with us. A cafe table in downtown Toronto, paints and brushes laid out, coffee and something sweet, and a couple of hours to make one small painting. We all paint the same piece and I'll show you how — step by step, from the first pencil line to the last stroke. You don't need experience. You don't need to be able to draw. If you can hold a pencil, you're sorted. You'll end up talking to the people next to you. That's half of why it exists. The piece is picked to be simple and forgiving — good-looking on a shelf, and kind about the mistakes you'll make getting there. **What's included** * All materials — everything to paint on, paints, brushes, the lot * A drink of your choice from the cafe * A finished painting to take home **Price**: **$**45 per person or **$**80 for 2.
