In this article, we are going to explain to you exactly what you need to know about joining a Sip and Paint in Stockholm, whether you call it wine and paint, paint and sip, or simply a creative night out.

What is a Sip and Paint?

Let’s begin with the big question: what exactly is a Paint and Sip event?

When was the first Paint & Sip?

There are plenty of stories about the origins of Paint and Sip events, but one thing is clear: the concept started in the United States.

The version I find most convincing, and like to think is true, involves Wendy Lovo, an art teacher who may have accidentally created the very first session. Wendy noticed that her students were carrying a lot of stress, so - believe it or not - she decided to introduce a little wine to help them unwind. And that is how Paint and Sip was brought into the world.

Over 20 years later, this simple idea has become a global phenomenon -paving the way for the vibrant sip and paint scene we have today. Millions of people around the world now relax in front of a canvas with a glass of wine in hand, laughing and having a great time. Cheers to you, Wendy! And starting December 2026, you can finally experience the magic of Sip and Paint in Stockholm too.

What happens at a Sip & Paint?

The goal is simple: create your own masterpiece. There is always an art instructor on-site to guide you through the process, step by step. Even if you don’t want to follow the theme of the day and just want to do your own thing, they are right there to guide you and share tips whenever needed. Even if you have never picked up a paintbrush before, our talented instructors will help you create your very own Rembrandt that you can be proud of.

What truly sets our sip and paint Stockholm sessions apart is the atmosphere, which changes with every event as a reflection of the unique mix of participants. Love a good sing-along? Expect the playlist to get you singing all night long. Fancy yourself a dancer? Don’t be surprised if an impromptu dance party breaks out. Prefer a more laid-back vibe? You can sit back, sip, and let your worries drift away while you paint.

How long does a Paint and Sip take?

Typically, a Paint and Sip event lasts around two hours. However, the exact duration can vary depending on the organizer. Most events stick closely to the two-hour mark, but the session can stretch a little longer or wrap up sooner depending on the complexity of the painting and the pace of the group.
