3 places to find paint and sip in washington

Hello and welcome to Artvana!  If you are looking for Paint and Sip in Washington state you are in the right place!

Maybe you have been hearing the buzz about how fun a paint and sip class is and you are ready to jump in and join the fun.  Or maybe you are a long-time paint and sipper and want to find more events and classes you can attend.

So let’s get you painting!

Artvana is a leading paint and sip provider in Washington state and we started locally in Yelm WA in 2017Since then we have expanded our team of artists to 10 and the number of WA counties we paint in to 6!  

WA Counties where you can find Artvana Paint and Sip:

King | Pierce | Kitsap | Thurston | Lewis | Spokane

We offer a large selection of approximately 30-40 classes per month, so you have more date and time options to paint.  One thing that really makes Artvana unique is that we do not have our own ‘Studio’ space.  Instead of limiting ourselves to one location that people need to travel to, we travel to you!  With a large list of excellent local partner venues, you can find classes near you almost anywhere!

Each venue brings a different vibe and atmosphere so you can pick and choose your paint and sips.  From coffee houses to breweries, alcohol or N/A, we know there is a paint-and-sip event waiting in our calendar that will be perfect for you!

Now let’s shine a spotlight on 3 of our partner venues!  Today we will be focusing on our partners in Olympia Washington.

#1. Top Rung Brewing, Lacey Washington

Top Rung is one of our long-standing partner venues and we have been painting it up there since 2018!  Retired firefighters opened Top Rung Brewing which has a stylish firefighter theme including hanging ladders.  It’s big and spacious with huge tables for painting which we love, well-lit and family-friendly.

Of course, we have to mention Lucas the long-time Taproom manager who has been holding down the fort with us all these years.  Be sure to say hi to him the next time you are in!  With great brews crafted on-site, to trivia nights, to community events and run clubs, you are sure to find community (and creativity) at this Lacey Brewery.  Visit Top Rung Brewing Website 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

#2. Cup of Swords Tavern, Olympia Washington

If you are looking for a paint and sip where you can really dive into your creative and make-believe side, this partner venue is where you will find it!  Cup of Swords is a recently opened tavern in Olympias Downtown that puts the FUN back into going out!  Besides regular Artvana Paint and Sips twice a month they also have some really unique and fun events happening regularly like:

Dress like a Pirate Day | The Scupper Monkeys Band | DND games and one-shots | Costume parties

Come indulge your fantasies with us at Cup of Swords Tavern, join their ‘Shield Wall’ mug club and get a huge HUZZAH when you order your drinks!  Visit Cup of Swords Tavern Website

#3 Fog and Fern Coffeehouse, Lacey Washington

As mentioned we don’t just paint at alcohol-friendly venues, we have some sweet spots for you non-drinkers too!  This one is close to my heart as it is my very own sisters shop!  I love that we get to collaborate as local business owners and the Artvana events here are relaxing and community-focused.

All of Fog and Fern Coffees pastries in the case are hand-made by my sistah!  They also serve top-of-the-line coffee brewed and poured expertly for your sipping pleasure.  Come check them out I am sure it will be one of your new favorite hangs.  View the Fog and Fern Coffee Website

Top Valentine's Day activities 2025

/5 minute read/

Celebrate and SHARE the love this Valentine’s Day with this FREE DIY Valentine’s Day project!

Hello, Rikki here, I am so excited to share a fun DIY Valentine’s Day project with you today that all ages can enjoy! 

Whether you’re spending Valentine’s Day solo with a cozy candle, some good music, and a warm drink in hand, or gathering with the kids or grandkids for a fun family project, this tutorial is perfect for everyone! It’s simple, enjoyable, and easy to do, making it ideal for all ages.

Maybe this year you and your partner want to get creative together while watching a rom-com—you can each make your own version of the project! The best part? It takes under an hour to complete. You probably already have most of the supplies at home, and a quick trip to the craft store will round out any paints or brushes you might need. Feel free to get creative and customize it however you like—it’s as flexible as a soup recipe!

Bonus points if you add a little extra sparkle with metallic accents, glitter, or rhinestones!

Let’s get started!

Alright, you’ve gathered your supplies, now set the mood, grab those candles, put on those slow tunes and get ready to let your creativity flow. 

If you are painting this DIY Valentine’s Day project with kids, the dry breaks are a perfect time to make some snacks, get drink refills, take a movement break and do some jumping jacks, if you kids are a little older perhaps you want to invoke the Vday spirit and talk about who you LOVE!

Not only are these caramels handmade in small batches in Utah, they come in the most beautiful packaging!  These will be a lovely treat for your lover, or yourself!

These candles are all natural and have that extra something!  They each come with an information card describing the fun add-ins and crystals, plus they have a delicious fruity and floral scent.
