Located in the charming village of Prestbury near Cheltenham, England, The Kings Arms offers a unique evening experience that combines creativity with conviviality. This Festive Paint and Sip Night invites both beginners and casual painters to immerse themselves in a relaxed atmosphere while creating their own rendition of the ‘North Pole Penguin.’ Scheduled for the evening of December 10th, this two-hour workshop balances artistic guidance with a festive spirit that makes midweek evenings something to look forward to.
The Kings Arms, with its historic presence on Prestbury’s High Street, serves as the perfect backdrop for this event.
