SUMMARY:BLOOM Paint & Sip: Rock Painting & Mocktail Night
DESCRIPTION:Paint a rock\, sip a mocktail\, and get creative with BLOOM! A casual evening of painting\, relaxing\, and connecting with community.\n\n\nWhat It Is\nPick a rock\, grab some paint\, pour yourself a mocktail\, and create whatever you like! \nWe’ll have rocks\, paints\, brushes\, and all the painting materials ready for you\, along with a selection of non-alcoholic mocktails to sip while you create. Paint a colourful design\, a little character\, your favourite quote\, something inspired by Newfoundland and Labrador\, or simply see where your creativity takes you. \nThis isn’t an art class or a formal workshop — there’s no instructor\, no pressure\, and no painting experience needed. It’s simply a relaxed space to slow down\, do something creative\, chat with others\, and enjoy the evening at your own pace. \nRock painting has become a fun and popular trend that spreads kindness and brightens someone’s day. People decorate rocks with colourful pictures\, encouraging words\, and positive messages. They can hide their rocks outdoors for others to find or take them home to display in their garden\, house\, or another special place. It’s a simple trend that brings creativity\, kindness\, and joy to the community. \nCome on your own\, bring a friend\, meet someone new\, and leave with your own little piece of art to take home. 🎨💚 \n \nWho This Is For\nAnyone looking for a fun and relaxed way to get creative and connect with others! \nYou don’t need to consider yourself artistic or have any painting experience. Whether you already love painting or haven’t picked up a paintbrush in years\, you’re welcome to join us. \n \nEvent Details\n📅 Saturday\, September 12\, 2026🕡 Time: 6pm- 8pm📍 Location: 7 Ricketts Road \n \nThings You Need to Know\n\nWhat to bring: Just yourself!
