Turtle Reef Paint Party @ Colchester

Come and join us on Monday 20th October 2025 at The Dog & Pheasant, 24 Nayland Rd, Colchester CO4 5EG for a relaxed and enjoyable evening painting our Turtle Reef under the expert instruction of our workshop leader Sarah.

No experience needed. You can either follow the step by step instructions or ‘express yourself’ by putting your own personal touches on it as much as you feel comfortable to do so. If you so wish, you can change the colours (maybe to fit in with home décor or a favourite colour), change the silhouettes (if applicable) or add extra details. We just love it when people get creative but we are equally as happy when people stick to the set piece. It’s totally your choice. At the end of the evening you will have a painting that you love to take home and cherish.

We supply everything you need to paint including a blank 16” by 20” stretched canvas, quality acrylic paints and brushes, paint palette, water pot and apron.

Whilst our events are aimed at adults, this venue is family friend and therefore older children are welcome to come paint with their parent(s) or guardian(s).

This event will start promptly at 7:00pm and run to around 10pm. Full bar and food available, please do not bring your own.

As a minimum, please arrive 10 minutes early to book in.

Old clothing is recommended just in case there are any accidents with the acrylic paints. Aprons will be provided. We will be taking photos throughout the event for our website and social media. Please advise us if you do not wish to be featured in these photos.
