This isn’t your typical paint night—it’s an experience.

🇮🇹 Our Next Stop: Italy
 
Join Chef Rudy and me in the studio on Wednesday, June 24th from 6:30–8:30pm for an unforgettable evening inspired by the sunshine, flavors, and charm of Italy.
 
The studio will transform into a little slice of the Amalfi Coast as you paint vibrant Italian lemons on your own terra cotta flower pot. Then, before the evening is over, you'll plant a fresh basil plant to take home—perfect for adding a taste of Italy to your own kitchen.
 
While you create, Chef Rudy will prepare a selection of delicious Italian-inspired small plates for you to enjoy. To help continue the experience at home, he'll also share a favorite recipe featuring fresh basil from your new plant.
No experience is necessary! I'll guide you step-by-step through the painting process, making it fun and approachable for all skill levels. Feel free to bring your favorite beverage to sip while you paint. We'll have wine glasses and aprons ready for you.
