SUMMARY:PaintPix & Chill @ The Lab
DESCRIPTION:PaintPix & Chills have become popular\, so we’ve decided to make them a permanent regular fixture at Wishbone. Due to the need for artists need to spread out and create\, the event is capped at 15 participants. \nEnjoy a relaxing\, enjoyable afternoon and let your creative juices flow freely with Kieran Hayes\, volunteer at Wishbone (aka The Sunday Guy). \nBYOM (bring your own materials) or feel free to use what’s available at the Lab. \nAll skill levels from zero to Picasso are welcome. \nWe are a default-vegan centre\, so if you’re bringing food\, it must be plant-based only. \nAs the building that houses Wishbone is a heritage building boasting one of the last attendant-operated elevators in the city of Toronto (but only during weekday office hours)\, Wishbone will unfortunately not be accessible to anyone requiring a lift to the third floor for this particular event. Our apologies in advance for this inconvenience. \nNote: Please check the Facebook event page for updates.
