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.

They have found a unit for 437€.The purchase of a ticket on the bus tour or any donation would be gratefully appreciated to assist in the purchase of the AC unit in order deliver the animals as comfortably as possible. You can donate here.
