When people say let your creative juices flow, they mean wine, right?
There’s nothing quite as relaxing as putting brush to canvas and watching a new masterpiece come to life. Sadly, not all of us are creatively gifted, so we need a helping hand from time to time. Paint and grape classes are essentially an art class like the ones we had in school, with the added bonus of a couple of glasses of wine included.
Here are five paint and grape classes you can get creative in.
Chill En Paint
Chill En Paint is the new class launching at TRYP by Wyndham on July 12. The class, held at The Nest, includes canvas, paints, paint brushes, an apron and easel, two glasses of wine, finger food and one-on-one tutoring with visual artist Wilfredo Leonardo, for Dhs249. You’ll be able to take home your completed artwork at the end to hang in your home too. The three-hour session will see you complete a unique piece of art from start to finish, while picking up tips and tricks along the way.
The Nest, Tryp by Wyndham, Barsha Heights, Friday July 12, 5pm to 8pm, more dates TBA, Dhs249. Tel: (056) 113 5491. chillenpaint.com
Drink, Paint and Party
Drink, Paint and Party takes place in various locations every Saturday from 6pm to 8pm. ArtistPals will be on hand to guide you through the creation of a masterpiece, from blank canvas to complete artwork. The theme for the next event is ‘Dubai Skyline’ and all art supplies including brushes, paints, easels, 40×50 cm canvas and aprons are provided.

Red, White and Paint
Media City cafe-cum-wine bar, Cafe W, has a series of events called Red, White and Paint. The classes include a three hour painting session, two glasses of wine and a cheese platter, or non-alcoholic beverages and a vegan alternative if you prefer. The next classes will take place at Cafe W on Monday July 22 and 29. It’s Dhs250.

Paint and Pour
Arabian Delights: Paint and Pour will be happening at McGettigans JLT on Saturday September 7. Enjoy three drinks and a food platter for Dhs250, along with your art materials. Paint and collage and frame your own creation to display proudly for all to see. The class will run from 2pm to 5pm and is open to all levels of ability.
McGettigans, Cluster A, JLT, Saturday September 7, 2pm to 5pm, Dhs250 (frame is extra). Tel: (04) 356 0560. mcgettigans.com/jlt-dubai
Paint and Grape
These classes take it up a level with each session focused on a famous piece of art such as the girl with the pearl earring, Monet’s starry night or the Mona Lisa – so they’re perhaps for the more advanced artist. For Dhs390, you’ll get two glasses of wine, or four non-alcoholic drinks plus three hours of teaching and all of the equipment provided. Classes are currently paused for summer, and will return again in September.
