Wild Learning hosts fabulous Paint & Sip style Art Workshops @ Qirkz in the Hunter!

Paint Your Birth Flowers
A meaningful art night at Qirkz in the Hunter

Every flower tells a story. In this special paint and sip workshop, you’ll create a floral artwork inspired by birth month flowers — either your own, or those that represent the people and moments that matter most to you.

Choose from a collection of classic birth flowers or Australian bush flower alternatives, and design a piece that’s as personal as it is beautiful. Paint a single bloom, or combine several into a bouquet that honours your family, children, or significant dates.

You’ll be guided through the painting process using tracing templates and simple acrylic techniques — no drawing skills needed. Whether you come to reflect, celebrate, or simply enjoy a creative night out, you’ll leave with a finished canvas that holds meaning.

🌸 Choose a flower for each birth month or person you want to honour
🎨 Paint with acrylics on canvas using guided techniques
🖌️ Use tracing templates to shape your design with ease
🍷 Enjoy a relaxed, reflective evening of painting, conversation, and connection

No experience needed — just come as you are.
🎟 Limited to 25 guests, and tickets go quickly.

“I never thought I could paint, but I walked out with something I’m SO proud of — and I laughed all night!” – Jenny R.

Do I need to be artistic? Not at all — we promise you’ll surprise yourself.
Can I come alone? Absolutely — lots of people do, and we’ll make sure you feel welcome.
