A Shamelessly Spooky Sip & Sketch with Vanillacooldance

Join for a bold and shamelessly spooky evening of creativity, connection, and wicked self-expression at Sir Adam Hotel.

Led by Jessica Stahl — award-winning creator of the taboo-breaking cartoon Vanillacooldance — this isn’t your ordinary sip & sketch. It’s a one-of-a-kind Halloween experience where you’ll conjure secret desires, chase away dating ghosts, and claim wicked self-expression while sipping hauntingly good cocktails.

Under Jessica’s playful guidance, you’ll bring your cartoon alter-ego to life and dive into conversations that are haunting, liberating, and long overdue.

You’ll walk away not only with your own unique artwork, but with fresh connections, a deeper sense of shamelessness, and bold energy that lingers long after the night ends. Plus, you’ll leave with a wicked goody bag that’s more treat than trick.
