Drip Bear Workshop at Atlanta Splatter Studio in Virginia-Highland

Turn a painted bear into an object that scrambles the line between craft and statement at Drip Bear, a hands-on session at Atlanta Splatter Studio in the Virginia-Highland neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia. In this 35-minute class you transform a nine-inch plaster bear into a layered, drip-painted sculpture you’ll want to keep. The experience puts technique and play on equal footing: pour paints arrive in small cups, tools and protective gear are provided, and a studio guide walks each guest through color layering, drip paths, and leaving negative space for contrast. The finished bears are left to cure in the studio’s drying area and later available for pickup. Key features here are tactile: the compact 9″ bear form, the fluid movement of poured acrylics, and the textures created as paint pools and runs over rounded planes. The process highlights how gravity and viscosity become compositional partners—the way a paint’s thickness beads on an ear or creates marbling across a flank becomes the point of the piece. Families and solo explorers alike gravitate to the accessibility: ages six and up are welcome (children 6–15 need adult supervision), group sizes sit at five per booking, and the studio handles curing logistics so you don’t carry wet art through public transit. What makes this a standout in Atlanta’s activity scene is its design-forward spirit. Rather than drying on a wall, your work becomes a small three-dimensional object you can place on a shelf or mantle; it’s functional pop sculpture that captures a moment of intentional mess. The studio’s location in Virginia-Highland—a pedestrian-friendly district with historic early-20th-century roots—also makes it easy to pair a session with neighborhood coffee, galleries, or a walkable mural hunt. Practical notes: arrive on time, wear something you don’t mind getting paint on (aprons are provided), and expect to leave your piece at the studio for a brief curing window before pickup. Accessibility accommodations are available with advance notice; refunds and cancellations are handled per studio policy. Whether you’re a creative first-timer seeking a tactile project or a group looking for a cheerful team activity, Drip Bear blends low-barrier technique with high-design results. The visceral pleasures—in the drag of a dripping tail, the sudden bloom when colors meet—are a reminder that art doesn’t need to be precious to be made well. Sessions are ideal for birthday parties, bachelorette gatherings, or solo creative breaks; the studio accepts private bookings for small groups and will advise on pickup timing so pieces cure fully before collection. If you need shipping, ask the studio—many guests arrange pickup from the studio after the recommended curing window. Book a short slot, pick your palette, and walk away with a bear that will be an unmistakable conversation starter.
