Sip-and-Paint Kintsugi Peonies in Omaha - Free Drink Included | Paint and Sip | Workshop

In Omaha’s Midtown Crossing, 200 S. 31st Ave Suite 4104, a two-hour painting session titled June 16th - Kintsugi Peonies FREE DRINK INCLUDED! blends approachable instruction with a relaxed social atmosphere. CorkyCanvas leads an instructor‑led, step‑by‑step class where beginners and practiced painters alike work from blank canvases into floral compositions inspired by peonies and the Japanese repair art of kintsugi, the latter lending the workshop its gilded accents and philosophy of beauty in imperfection. The room fills with the click of brushes and low conversation as the instructor demonstrates under warm studio lights. Materials are provided: stretched canvases, acrylic paints, brushes, palettes and a steady supply of sealant and gold paint for kintsugi-style highlights. An included complimentary wine or beer softens first‑time jitters, while non‑alcoholic options and snacks are available for purchase. Sessions typically last about two hours, making this a compact creative night out for couples, solo travelers, or groups. What sets this session apart from a generic paint-and-sip is the blending of a traditional mending aesthetic with botanical painting. The "peonies" motif gives artists a chance to study layered petals, value shifts and wet-on-wet blending on acrylic, while the kintsugi element introduces deliberate metallic lines that mimic repaired ceramics. That combination creates pieces that read as both floral study and storytelling object—each brushstroke keeps some trace of process and recovery. Situated in Midtown Crossing, a lively Omaha district beside the Missouri River, the studio sits within easy reach of parks, restaurants, and riverfront trails—so you can combine an artistic evening with dinner or a riverside walk. The class is family-friendly and welcomes a wide age range; check specifics when booking. Parking and transit access are straightforward in this mixed-use neighborhood. Bring curiosity, an old shirt or apron, and a phone camera to capture your progress. The instructor’s step-by-step approach means little prior skill is needed, but the format also rewards those who want to experiment with composition or metallic glaze. Whether you travel to Omaha for the riverfront or live nearby, this class offers a short, creative reset—an evening where paint, praise, and a poured drink converge into a finished canvas you can take home. Booking is handled through the FareHarbor link provided by the operator; check availability ahead of time as popular weekend sessions fill quickly. All paints are water-based, brushes are sanitized between classes, and the studio encourages guests to recycle paper palettes and limit single‑use plastics. If you have mobility concerns, contact the studio in advance—the ground-floor building and suite area typically accommodate wheelchairs, though individual setup may vary. Gift certificates and private group bookings are available for celebrations and corporate team‑builds, turning a short class into a memorable local outing. Reserve your easel.
