Painting by Candlelight Workshop - Winter Solstice

Experiment with colour, texture, and mood in a beautifully lit, intimate setting using acrylic paints on canvas.
About this Event

Join us on Friday 18th December for a candlelit painting workshop marking the Winter Solstice — a beautiful threshold moment between seasons. We’ll create in the soft glow of candlelight, embracing the reflective energy of the darkest day of the year. A gentle, atmospheric session perfect for slowing down, reconnecting, and welcoming the lighter days to come.

Kim will lead the session where you’ll experiment with acrylic paints, colour, texture, and mood in a beautifully lit, intimate setting whilst enjoying a comforting hot cup of cocoa or herbal tea of your choice with a selection of savoury nibbles. You’ll head home with your finished painted canvas.

Whether you’re looking for a mindful moment, a unique gift experience, or simply a cosy night out, this workshop wraps creativity and comfort into one evening.

Proceeds go towards our community art projects, providing mental well-being and creative health, especially for those facing barriers.

Please inform us of any allergies and food intolerance at least 3 days before the workshop. You are also welcome to bring your own snacks.

• All materials and an apron will be provided.
• You will work on a 30cm x 30cm canvas (or similar).
• Snacks, tea, coffee, soft drinks and alcohol offered throughout the workshop.
• A completed canvas to take home.
