About Studio Vino Pirie Street
Studio Vino is a locally owned paint and sip company that has run painting nights in Adelaide for many years. Its Pirie Street studio in the Adelaide CBD is a working art space rather than a gallery, so guests are free to make a mess. A private session runs for about two hours, with an experienced artist guiding the group through the featured painting one step at a time. Canvases, paints, brushes and aprons are supplied, and nobody needs any painting background to take part. Groups choose the artwork from a gallery of more than 100 pieces, or bring their own idea for a theme. The studio is also known for its Picasso-style partner portraits, which are popular with couples, friends and colleagues. Hens groups can add champagne on arrival, grazing platters and extended time for games. Corporate groups can choose a collage format, shared large-format canvases, or a three-hour session with drinks and platters included. Pirie Street is fully licensed, selling wine, beer and cider at low prices, or groups can bring their own drinks for a corkage charge. The studio is fully accessible, and a deposit secures each private booking.

Frequently asked questions
How many people do we need for a private party?
Pirie Street private events have a minimum charge equal to 10 people on weekdays and Saturday mornings, and 20 people on weekend afternoons and Friday or Saturday nights. The studio seats up to 36.
Can we bring our own drinks?
Yes. BYO is allowed with a corkage charge of $5 per person, or the studio bar sells wine from $5 and beer and cider for $6, along with soft drinks.
Can we bring food?
Snacks or catering are welcome at private events, but hot or greasy food is not, and most of the session is spent painting. Grazing platters can be added to hens bookings.
What should we wear?
Whatever you would wear for a casual night out, keeping in mind that acrylic paint is hard to wash out. Every painter is given a black apron to help protect their clothes.
Are children allowed?
Evening sessions are for adults aged 18 and over, and teenagers from 14 can join daytime sessions with a paying parent. Separate 90-minute children's birthday parties can also be booked.

This was a lot of fun. Kelsey was great guiding us through each step of our painting and there are reasonably priced beverages to choose from. A very enjoyable experience and I'll be certainly back.
