Spend your evening sipping, painting, and creating something full of meaning.
In this relaxed Sip & Paint workshop, you’ll explore the beauty of African symbols and pattern-making, inspired by Adinkra (West African visual symbols) and Uli (Igbo/Nigerian decorative line art). Using these striking motifs as your creative starting point, you’ll paint your own artwork to take home — bold, modern, and completely personal.
This session is designed to be welcoming for beginners and satisfying for anyone who already loves making art. You’ll be guided step-by-step through the process, from symbol inspiration and simple sketching, to painting techniques and finishing touches. Whether you come for a creative night out, a little self-care, or a fun activity with friends, you’ll leave with a piece you’re proud to hang up or gift.
What you’ll do
During the workshop you’ll:
Learn the background and visual language of Adinkra and Uli-inspired motifs
Explore symbol meanings and choose designs that resonate with you
Plan your composition (even if you “can’t draw” — you’ll get templates and guidance)
Paint your final artwork using easy, satisfying techniques for clean lines, pattern, and contrast
Add finishing touches and details to make your piece look polished and gallery-ready
