Shani's Drink & Draw
An experience by: Shani Nizan
About this experience
Shani's Drink & Draw is somewhere between an art class, social event, and a performance. It's a night where people drink, laugh, be social with each other, while also learning something new.
The experience is for those with zero art experience to experts. Shani gives very basic tips for beginners that want to get a taste of the skill of drawing. (while tasting alcohol.)
The experience lasts 90 minutes including a short intermission in the middle.
The space requires chairs, and if there are more than 30 participants, then also a microphone.
I recommend a minimum of 10 people for the experience!
Hamptons is subject to an additional $100 travel fee.
