Take-Home Art

Looking for a relaxed, vibrant, and ultra-creative private group activity in Sydney? Ditch the standard canvas painting and step into ClayGround for our Sip & Paint Ceramic Painting Private Event! In this 2-hour social workshop, you and your group will transform pre-bisqued ceramic pieces into custom, functional works of art using our huge array of colorful underglazes and specialty brushes.

Hosted at our beautiful, light-filled studios in Brookvale (Northern Beaches) and Rosebery (Inner South), this experience is designed to be 100% stress-free and beginner-friendly. There's no wheel throwing or wet clay mess required, just pure artistic freedom! Our expert instructors will walk you through color mixing, painting techniques, line work, and splatter effects to bring your visions to life.

It’s fully BYO, so pop open your favorite wine or bubbly, set up your grazing spread, and let the creative juices flow. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, hosting a hen’s gathering, or organizing a team catch-up, you’ll enjoy a memorable creative session and take home a food-safe ceramic piece you'll use for years to come.
