Everything to Know About Paint & Sip

Creative classes around the bay city split into two camps. Paint and sip studios in the CBD and Torquay walk a group through a canvas over a couple of hours, while clay studios in Geelong West, Drysdale and Bellbrae have everyone shaping a piece to be fired and collected later.

How the options compare:

Canvas or clay. Painting gives everyone a finished piece on the night, while pottery means a pickup or delivery after firing.
Drinks. Some studios are licensed and others are BYO, which changes both the budget and the planning.
Price. Studio classes start from $35 per person, rising to $130 per person for a longer hand-building workshop in a bush setting.
Group size. Rooms generally take somewhere between eight and 40 guests, so check the cap before inviting a big crowd.

These classes suit a hens party, a baby shower or a relaxed birthday, and several studios run kids' versions too. For a Surf Coast or Bellarine studio, a shared minibus saves the group juggling cars before and after the class.

The CBD has guided canvas classes close to restaurants for dinner afterwards.
Geelong West suits groups keen to try the potter's wheel, with private group classes and a fired piece for each guest.
On the Bellarine, a Drysdale clay studio lets guests bring their own food and drinks.
On the Surf Coast, Torquay has a BYO canvas studio and Bellbrae a clay workshop on a bush block.

Before You Book: Paint & Sip FAQs

Is pottery or painting the better pick for a hens group?

Painting finishes on the night, so everyone walks out with a canvas. Pottery takes longer, since pieces are fired afterwards, but working the clay tends to get a group talking and laughing.

Can we bring our own drinks to a paint class in Torquay?

The Torquay studio is BYO, and so is a Drysdale clay studio. Others are licensed, so check the policy before buying anything.

How much do creative party classes cost around the bay?

Most classes start from $35 per person, while a longer clay workshop at Bellbrae starts from $130 per person.

Are there paint or craft parties for children?

Yes. A CBD craft studio runs kids' birthday parties from $25 per person, and several pottery and paint studios welcome younger guests. Ask about age ranges.

When are pottery pieces ready to take home?

Pieces need drying and firing after the class, so collection comes later. Ask the studio for its timeline and whether delivery is possible.
