Get creative this weekend with a paint in the dark workshop in Dubai
Unleash the artist within…
Love a paint and grape? Try something different, set down the wine glass and opt for a Paint in the Dark workshop.
The unique experience opened for the first time in Dubai in April, with two more sessions planned for May 25 and 26. However, it is proving to be quite popular and the team have added two more dates on June 22 and 23, 2024.
What to expect?
The workshop takes place, well in the dark… but is backed with black light and neon art making the setting look retro-futuristic – it’s all to help fuel your creativity.

Also unlike many paint and grape experiences in Dubai where you are provided with an outline to guide you, here the canvas is entirely your creation.
First, you will be asked to paint your canvas either entirely black or white and after it dries, the magic can begin. You will get to create your work of art using fluorescent art. If you don’t know where to begin, or the creative wheel stops spinning, don’t worry! There will be an artist at the venue who will help get the wheels turning again. The team will also assist if you need any tips or guidance.

The experience will be backed with music (we were lucky to have a Candlelight performance taking place right next door) and plenty of chit-chat and laughter providing an overall fun and positive atmosphere.
The entire experience lasts around 90 minutes and includes soft drinks.

After it’s over, you can leave with your canvas to show off to your loved ones. Oh, and… unless you want to show off your paint-stained attire, come in something you don’t mind getting paint splashes on. You will also be provided an apron.
Want to have a go? All you need to do is book your spot and show up. Everything else is provided including an apron.
