Your happy place for creativity and connection!

Hi, I'm Lauren! I discovered painting during lockdown and quickly fell in love with its calming, joyful nature. That passion grew into Studio Fifty Art Club — a space where everyone is welcome to unwind, explore their creativity, and have a little fun along the way.

Through my inclusive and affordable Paint and Sip sessions, I bring people together in a relaxed setting for afternoon and evening events filled with colour, laughter, and connection. Here’s what makes us a little different - and a lot more welcoming - than your average Paint and Sip night.

I also run private events for parties, corporate teams, and social groups, plus kids’ art clubs during half-term and holidays.

Spent a very relaxing 2 hours at Lauren’s Sip and Paint last Sunday. Lauren is very good at guiding you through painting a lovely picture to take home.

Lauren hosted a brilliant corporate event for us, it was a super fun activity for a social evening in the office. Lauren guided us through the painting expertly. All our guests had so much fun and came away with a beautiful cityscape painting at the end of it. We also loved the fun playlist. Thanks so much, Lauren!

Lauren came to my company to run a social paint and sip, and it was absolutely fantastic. She handled a large group really well, and everyone was relaxed, creative and had a lot of fun. There was a great mix of people who had painted before, and people who hadn’t done so since school, and Lauren was able to adapt and cater to all of us, and encourage experimentation and play. I can’t recommend her enough! I’d previously done a regular paint and sip, and was impressed by how well she was able to scale up and adapt to a more ‘corporate’ environment, while still making sure we all enjoyed ourselves. It’s been really lovely seeing all the paintings proudly displayed on desks around the office too - they brighten the place up, and also bring back ongoing memories of a fantastic evening that worked brilliantly for team building, staff wellbeing and relaxation. Thank you!

Fab evening at the Green Man with Lauren, her instructions were clear and she gave you a little bit more guidance if you needed it, I will definitely book another evening!

My friends and I had a great evening at The George in Bilton. We all came away with our own ‘masterpiece’s’! It was a lovely class and each step explained really well and so easy to follow. Laura was great and we could paint at our pace. Thorough recommend xx

I always loved art but struggled to find time to do it around work and family commitments, and particularly developing painting skills felt like a lot of effort to set up and clean away for the sake of practice when I only had limited time.

The paint and sip event I attended was fabulous! Everything was set up ready for us and Lauren guided us patiently through the techniques while giving us room to experiment and explore. It was fun, relaxing and almost meditative, and at the end I had the first painting I had completed in over a decade, and I'm delighted with it! I couldn't recommend it enough, and I can imagine if you wanted to host your own paint and sip party it would be the perfect evening!

A fantastic and fun evening painting. As an inexperienced painter it was great to get tips and techniques. Lauren was extremely helpful and always available to answer questions. It was brilliant to do as a group, having a few drinks and chatting, along with the painting. I was very pleasantly surprised with the end result of my painting 😊
I would highly recommend Lauren’s sessions to anyone looking for an enjoyable evening with an artistic twist.

🎨 Why Choose Studio Fifty Art?

At Studio Fifty Art, we believe creativity belongs to everyone. Whether you haven’t picked up a paintbrush since school or you already love dabbling with colour, our Paint and Sip sessions are designed to be joyful, inclusive, and refreshingly pressure-free.

Here’s what makes us a little different—and a lot more welcoming—than your average art night:

💷 Affordable Creativity for Everyone

Many paint and sip events charge upwards of £30 a ticket. We think that makes creativity feel out of reach.

Our sessions start at just £15–£20, so that regular creative time is actually accessible. Because art isn’t a luxury—it’s a wellbeing essential.

🖌️ No Experience? Perfect.

You don’t need to be “good at art” to join us. In fact, you don’t even need to have painted before. Our sessions are about relaxing, experimenting and having fun, not perfection. You’ll be amazed at what you create—with no pressure, no judgement, and plenty of wine (or squash).

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Small, Friendly Sessions

Studio Fifty Art is not a faceless chain—we’re local, friendly, and community-minded. Our sessions are small and welcoming, so you’ll never feel like just another seat in a crowded venue. It’s about connection as much as creativity.

🍷 Venues That Feel Like Home

We partner with brilliant local pubs, cafés and community spaces—so the setting is always warm, sociable and relaxed. Whether it’s an evening out with friends or a solo creative reset, you’ll always feel comfortable.

🌟 Built for Wellbeing

Painting is more than a hobby—it’s proven to reduce stress, improve focus and lift your mood. Our sessions give you that sense of calm and accomplishment, even if you've had the busiest week. It’s creative self-care with a splash of prosecco.

🎁 Flexibility with Class Passes & Gift Options

Love it here? We offer affordable class passes so you can come regularly and save. Want to treat someone else? Grab a gift card for a present that’s fun, thoughtful and screen-free.

👩‍🎨 Artist-led, Passion-driven

Studio Fifty Art was born from founder Lauren’s own love of painting—and her mission to make art feel joyful, inclusive and accessible. Every session is led with heart, humour and a deep belief in the power of creativity to bring people together.

Come for the paint. Stay for the people. Leave with a masterpiece—and a smile.
