Paint & Sip for St. Herman Church — Lakeside Evening Art Night in Kalispell | Paint and Sip | Events

Q: Where do proceeds go?

Proceeds support St. Herman Orthodox Church’s new building project in Kalispell.

Paint & Sip for St. Herman Church in Kalispell is an easygoing evening of art, wine, and community hosted by Events at the Harbor just off US Hwy 93 South in Lakeside, Montana. The session meets at 7135 US Hwy 93 South Lakeside, MT 59922 and runs in the early evening, making it a perfect way to unwind after a day on Flathead Lake or exploring Glacier Country. The room hums with low conversation as an instructor walks the group through a guided painting step by step; absolute beginners and confident dabblers work side by side on identical canvases while sampling one included glass of wine. All painting materials are provided, so you only need to bring your willingness to explore color and composition. Light refreshments are served by the host, and proceeds from the night support St. Herman Orthodox Church’s new building project in Kalispell — a tangible way to combine social time with local impact. What makes the event special is its lakeside setting and community purpose. Lakeside sits on the eastern shore of Flathead Lake, one of the largest natural freshwater lakes in the western United States, and the harbor venue channels that relaxed, social energy. You won’t find a sterile classroom here; instead, the space reflects the region’s casual, outdoors-informed culture — people who kayak, hike, or fish by day and gather for creative nights at local hubs by evening. Key scene features include communal tables, easels set beneath string lights, and wide windows that, on clear nights, frame the faint outline of the lake. The activity is low-impact physically but high in social return: a calm, guided creative session that’s ideal for date nights, small groups, or solo travelers wanting to meet locals. The guided format means you’ll leave with a finished canvas, even with no prior experience. Practical details: the event is 21+ and runs from 6–10 PM; tickets are $45 and include materials and one glass of wine. Check the meeting address — 7135 US Hwy 93 South Lakeside, MT 59922 — before you go. Parking is typically available at Events at the Harbor. Consider arriving early to mingle, or pair the night with a late-afternoon boat cruise on Flathead Lake. This Paint & Sip blends creative instruction, neighborly fellowship, and a fundraising motive into a single, memorable evening — an approachable way to spend an evening in Montana’s lake country while supporting a local church project. Bring a light sweater—Lakeside evenings cool fast—and wear shoes you don’t mind splattering with paint. Ticketing is online through the host's booking system; reservations are recommended since seats are limited. Whether you come with friends or solo, expect clear instruction, warm encouragement, and a finished canvas to take home as a keepsake of your Montana night.
