Wine and Art (a unique spin on the typical Happy Hour) Hot

This is a unique event that we are planning for June 2011. If you have a resident or two at your community who are art-savvy, maybe they can teach the class for you. We have two art teachers on property who are passionate about sharing art with others. If you don't have anyone interested in teaching the class, maybe you can find a teacher to donate their time. We will be providing a fun enviroment with wine and food for our over 21 residents to come in, create a painting (with instruction from the art teachers) and take their painting home with them. The painting is at a beginner level so that everyone (even those who aren't art-savvy) can have something to be proud of. All you need to host this event is lots of inexpensive acrylic paint, paper bowls (for mixing colors and washing brushes), inexpensive paint brushes, paper towels, mini canvases (our's were donated, but you can get them 50% off at Hobby Lobby) and any refreshments you want to provide (since ours is for the over 21 crowd, we are offering wine and cheese). After the event, and in conjunction with another event, we will host a Gallery Night where the residents can display their art throughout the clubhouse.
