About this event

2-hour blocks of unstructured art studio time on Thursday evenings for you to paint, draw, collage, enjoy our collection of art books with a cup of hot tea or coffee (provided), or just hang out and chat in a warm, inviting space.

Friend date? Romantic date? Date with yourself? Church of Art studio is that (alcohol-free) third space to hang out, either on your own or with others. No previous art experience is necessary. If you would like some guidance, Erika Halperin (the studio founder) will be in the studio and available to suggest activities based on your interests and skill level.

If you’re coming on your own and would like some company, Erika will happily spend time drawing, painting, or collaging with you. If you already know what you want to do or want to be left alone to read, write or make art in peace (or with a headset on), that’s ok, too.

All materials and supplies are included to make a collage, sketch with charcoal or graphite sticks, or play around with gouache or watercolor paints.

Come and go as you like during the two-hour block.

Non-alcoholic beverages and snacks are included.
