A time when imagination and creative energy awaken and we are ready to get moving! Everyone is welcome to our event at Action Painting Porto.

No prior experience is needed. Many participants arrive with a fixed idea and leave with something completely different\, often surprising themselves in the process. \n\n\n\nThe emphasis is on freedom\, expression and the shared moment of creation rather than perfection. At the end\, the artwork remains in the studio to dry properly and can later be collected either rolled or mounted on a wooden frame (additional cost of €50)\, ready to hang at home.Date : Wednesday\, March 11\, 2026Time : 3 pmPlace : Action Painting PortoR.
