Wine and paint nights have become increasingly popular over the past few years as a fun and creative way to spend time with your friends in Croatia. While drinking a virtually unlimited amount of local wine, you create your own masterpiece to take home with you. Art Bottega Studio offers one such exceptional experience.
At the beginning of the wine-and-canvas evening, you will be supplied with all painting materials needed, offered a glass of delicious Croatian wine, and instructed on the basic painting techniques by one of the six members of the Art Bottega painting team.
Once you get the gist, you will continue to paint over the next 2 or 3 hours with one hand while the other will hold your wine glass painted either red, white, or rosé.
No Previous Experience Needed for a Painting Party
Whether a beginner or a seasoned artist, you’re invited to channel your creativity as the wine kicks in. This DIY concept, combined with professional step-by-step guidance and bottomless wine all night, has proven to be an excellent authentic experience that many are keen to try.
Although this is not an art school or an art class, the attendees of the paint-and-wine night will inevitably learn something about the painting process, acquire a new skill, and much more. The Art Bottega team gathers painters, sculptors, photographers, designers, and the founder economist.
Stipe Mamić has always dreamed about creating a business that blends economy and art. So, he opened the first wine and paint studio in Split, Croatia, in 2018. Following the success of his first studio, Mamić opened two more Pineli & Vino studios in Zagreb and Zadar. The team is also organizing pop-up events all over Croatia!

Put Your Creativity to the Test and Go Home with Your Unique Art Piece
Art Bottega’s wine and paint night gives you an opportunity to socialize with people interested in art and/or wine, listen to music, and enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. The Art Bottega Studio is choosing wines from Dalmatian winemakers that are easy to drink and won’t overwhelm your senses as you’re trying to focus on your painting. The best part is that there is no chance of ruining the painting because it is all part of individual expression.
When booking your painting and vino experience, you book a theme for the night. The themes range from still life to landscapes to people to abstracts but do not limit your motivation, emotions, and artistic language. This adventure has the potential to awaken the child within and discover the real you! Are you the next Picasso or Frida Kahlo?
