Paint Your Pup @ Maddog Brewery

Join us at the vibrant Maddog Brewery for a laid-back afternoon of acrylic painting. Inspired by the bright colours of Brighton and the spirit of our favourite four-legged friends, this session is designed for anyone who wants to relax, recharge, and reconnect with their creative side in a supportive, dog-loving environment.

Settle into a joyful, welcoming atmosphere with a selection of craft brews, tasty alcohol-free sodas, and snacks. During this session, you will:

• Experiment & Play: Work with acrylics on canvas.
• Create Your Masterpiece: Be guided step-by-step through the process of bringing your pup to life on canvas.
• A Space for Everyone: Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned creative, this workshop is about process, not perfection.

To help us support the wonderful Maddog Brewery, we kindly ask all participants to purchase a drink (alcoholic or soft) upon arrival. They have a fantastic selection of brewed beers and refreshing sodas for the kids!

Making space to be creative is a powerful tool for wellbeing. Our workshop helps to:

• Reduce stress and anxiety
• Boost confidence
• Connect with others

No previous art experience is needed, just curiosity and a photo of your dog!

Materials

Canvas, acrylic paint, paintbrushes, and aprons will be provided.
