Everyday Expressive Arts Play — an art party at Bebop Bottle Shop turning the everyday into the extraordinary.

Imagine a relaxed Sunday afternoon: friends at a long table, low lights, easy music, and no rules, no pressure. Just playful, exploratory abstract art making and delicious wine.

What to expect

• Prompts to using everyday materials such as coffee and spices

• Wines carefully curated by Bebop Bottle Shop matched to creative moods: bright, deep, sparkling. Sip between mark making or use a splash in your work.

• Small texture experiments using things such as staplers, corks, paper, & foil

• Process-focused abstract play; no skills required. Finished pieces are celebrated, not judged.

Who it’s for

• Beginners and curious makers.

• Friends seeking a low-stakes, intimate creative hangout.

• Wine lovers who enjoy tactile experiments and hands on crafting

Bring curiosity Bebop will provide the wines, and Miranda will bring the materials, and prompts. Leave with new wonder, a couple of playful abstracts, and stories to pair with your next glass.

Creating art playfully and without judgment lets us forget about being perfect. It opens room for self-reflection, connecting with others, and simply enjoying the process. Further more, making art together in a judgment-free space challenges ideas of what art “should be,” sparking conversations that build understanding and kindness. This open approach celebrates different viewpoints, since everyone’s background, experiences, and culture shape their art uniquely.
