Drip Bear Special: Paint a 9-Foot Bear at Atlanta Perimeter Studio

At the Atlanta Perimeter Studio in Sandy Springs, Georgia, the Aug 1st - 2nd Drip Bear Special turns an afternoon into a hands-on, larger-than-life art session. This two-day booking lets each guest take a nine-foot fiberglass bear through layered paint and drip techniques, creating a bold sculptural statement that stays with the studio until curing and pickup. The studio sits inside the Sandy Springs arts corridor just north of Atlanta, an easy drive from hotel corridors around the Perimeter. Inside the studio the scene is tactile and direct: worktables, tarps, buckets of acrylic and enamel paint, and the towering blank bear that becomes your canvas. Key features of the experience are the 9' bear sculpture, supplied paints and protective gear, step-by-step studio guidance, and a controlled curing process that ensures your finish lasts. The bear itself is a smooth fiberglass form—an accessible, urban-scale medium that invites pouring, layering, and sculptural color work rather than traditional brush-bound techniques. For anyone intrigued by public art or pop-up sculptures, the scale and immediacy are the draw. Participants arrive, check in at Atlanta Perimeter Studio - Sandy Springs, GA, select a bear size, and begin experimenting with color blends and gravity-fed drips. Studio instructors coach compositional choices and safety for working at height. Kids ages six through fifteen must be accompanied by an adult, and no one under six is allowed. Bears remain at the studio to cure; pickup windows are provided after the session. This event stands out in metro Atlanta because it scales street-art aesthetics into a studio environment—big, social, and messy in a way galleries usually avoid. It’s a perfect option for a creative date, a team-building afternoon, or families with imaginative kids. The compact 30–45 minute session fits into travel days, and the finished sculpture makes a dramatic memento or lobby piece. Practical details: groups up to five are included; larger groups must contact the studio. Accessibility accommodations are available by phone. The booking carries a strict no-cancellation, no-refund policy, so confirm schedules before arrival. Bring clothes you don’t mind staining, plan for pickup per the studio’s timing, and leave room in your car for a 9' sculpture if you collect it. If you visit, pair the visit with a stroll along the nearby Chattahoochee access points or a coffee stop in the Perimeter area. For photographers, focus on wide-angle studio shots and close-ups of drip textures; for families, lean into the joy of hands-on color. This event is less about polished craft and more about bold choice, scale, and the spectacle of transforming blank form into an individual statement. Book early; slots fill fast for weekend specials and bring a small note of inspiration to guide your palette too.
