Pinot and Picasso

Overview

The widespread popularity of paint and sip classes has arrived in Parramatta in the form of Pinot and Picasso — a BYO workshop that offers major bang-for-your buck fun in more than 30 locations.

In Parramatta's Church Street shop, regular sessions rotate throughout the week. There's a wide range of subjects to paint here, from the northern lights, waterfalls and wildflowers to Yoda, Dobby and Frida Kahlo. For couples or friends, there's even a paint your mate night — which, depending on your skills and how many glasses of wine you have, could go one of two ways. As it's BYO, you're encouraged to bring food and drinks along with you, and the glassware is provided.

Tickets range from $49–59 and include a blank canvas, acrylic paints, brushes, a table easel, an apron and the aforementioned vessel for your booze. Crack that bottle vino and whack that brush on the canvas — we see a wine-fuelled masterpiece in your future.
