Sip and Paint with Sarah and Nikki at the Moat Theatre

At Moat Theatre · Abbey Road, Naas, Co. Kildare
A guided painting session run at the Moat Theatre in Naas and hosted by Sarah Gallagher and Nikki Roche. The evening is built around step-by-step instruction, so it is set up for people who have never painted as much as for anyone coming back to it after years away. Everyone works on the same piece under guidance and takes their own finished painting home at the end of the night.
All art materials are supplied in the ticket price, so there is nothing to bring except a drink. The venue’s listing is explicit that guests bring their own beverages rather than buying them on the night, which is worth knowing before you arrive. The session runs from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM, giving two hours from first brushstroke to finished canvas, and it is pitched as a social evening rather than a formal class: conversation, music and a relaxed pace are part of the format. It suits a group booking, a birthday or a first-time try at painting, and no previous experience is assumed at any point.
The Moat Theatre is on Abbey Road in Naas, a short walk from Main Street. By car, leave the M7 at Junction 9 or Junction 10 and follow signs into the town centre, where the public car parks are a few minutes from the door. Sallins and Naas railway station is roughly 4 km out on the Dublin Heuston to Kildare line, and coach services along the M7 corridor stop in Naas, though the 10:00 PM finish makes driving or a lift the easier option.
