Paint—and Sip 🧋
💥 JOIN US at the Summer Writing & Arts Summit 2025 for a hands-on creative workshop, “Self-Care-Focused Paint & Sip,” led by one of our own, Kailey Burbank. 🎨
“Let creativity flow as you paint an abstract acrylic portrait while focusing on the self and being mindful of inner thoughts, expression, and manifestation. This paint and sip will feature relaxing vibes, a positive discussion on healthy habits for mental health, self-expression through art, and friendly conversation—followed by a sweet drink for our like-minded dopamine seekers. Let’s paint and have fun!” —Kailey
All supplies will be provided. Participants will have their choice of a chilled coffee (sponsored by Sharecroppers Coffee and Creamery) or Celsius (sponsored by BP Cycles), as well as a collectible sticker (sponsored by Toadily Handmade).
⚠️ Seating and supplies are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
