Sip & Sketch: Painting & Afternoon Tea Experience

Sip & Sketch at The Vineyard Hotel & Spa
1.00pm to 5.30pm
£95 per person | Includes a 2-hour painting workshop, a glass of All Angels Sparkling Wine and Afternoon Tea Dining

Unwind in the elegance of The Vineyard Hotel & Spa this spring with the launch of our new seasonal event series: Sip & Sketch — an inspiring afternoon of art, fine wine, and exquisite hospitality.

Led by acclaimed local artist Simon Pink, this relaxed 2-hour painting workshop invites guests of all abilities to explore the classical technique of still-life painting. Choose your own object of focus and allow Simon to guide you through the foundations of contrast, colour, light, shadow, and reflection — all in a tranquil and creative setting.

Your artistic experience begins with a glass of locally produced All Angels Sparkling Wine and the chance to connect with fellow guests who share a passion for art and gastronomy. All painting materials will be provided, so you can simply arrive and immerse yourself in the moment.

Following the workshop, enjoy a beautifully presented Afternoon Tea in our bar dining area, featuring warm scones, delicate sandwiches, and intricate choux and cake creations — the perfect way to round off an afternoon of mindful creativity.
