Everything to Know About Paint & Sip

Creative group sessions on the Sunshine Coast come in two forms: a guided canvas painting night and hands-on clay work. Both are relaxed and sociable, and they work for a hens day, a bridal or baby shower, a team afternoon or a birthday where people want to chat while they make something.

Weigh up these differences:

Canvas or clay. A painting session in Mooloolaba from $59 per person sends everyone home with a finished canvas on the day, while clay pieces need firing and are collected or delivered later.
Handbuilding or the wheel. Maroochydore handbuilding starts at $75 per person; the Nambour studio adds wheel throwing, with firing included, from $150 per person.
Numbers. The Nambour studio takes 8 to 18, while Maroochydore runs private sessions from 2 to 30.
Drinks. The coastal studios welcome guests bringing their own; check glasses and ice are provided.
Ages. Two studios welcome kids, which helps for a family birthday.

Indoor sessions make a handy plan B in the stormy summer months. If the group wants more movement, see activities, or pair a session with a lunch from the hens party ideas.

Mooloolaba and Maroochydore sit close to restaurants and bars, so a session can lead straight into lunch or dinner.
Nambour suits a group based in the hinterland or a work team wanting a quieter weekday setting.
Ask each studio how long a session runs; two hours is common for clay, and it shapes the rest of the day.

Fitting the session to the occasion

Bridal and baby showers suit a canvas night: low mess, seated and easy for a guest of honour to enjoy.
Team-building groups often prefer clay, where a little skill and patience makes the session feel like a challenge.
Hens groups can theme a canvas or create matching pieces as keepsakes.
Kids' birthdays work at the studios that welcome children; ask about age minimums and aprons.

Before You Book: Paint & Sip FAQs

Is paint and sip in Mooloolaba different from a pottery workshop?

Yes. A canvas session is finished on the night, while pottery pieces need firing first. Canvas suits a quick, low-mess party; clay suits a group wanting a hands-on challenge.

How much is a creative workshop for a Sunshine Coast hens or shower?

Canvas painting starts at $59 per person and clay handbuilding at $75 per person, with wheel sessions from $150 per person.

Can we bring our own drinks to a coastal paint session?

The Mooloolaba and Maroochydore studios welcome guests bringing their own. Check what they supply, and keep it light if kids are joining.

What group size works for a clay class on the Sunshine Coast?

Nambour takes 8 to 18 people and Maroochydore runs sessions from 2 up to 30, so even a very small or a fairly large group can be covered.

Are kids welcome at Sunshine Coast art party studios?

Two of the studios welcome children, which makes them an option for a family birthday or a craft-themed party.
