About us
If you’re interested in developing your painting and drawing skills alongside like-minded people, this Meetup is for you! Absolute beginners and those more experienced in the arts are all welcome.
Learn in a relaxed, friendly environment with qualified art teachers who have over 25 years’ experience leading award-winning art departments (including the TES Award for Outstanding Innovation in Teaching and Learning).
Our new theme, “Around the World in Arty Days™,” invites you to explore art, colour, and culture from across the globe. Each session is a creative adventure inspired by a different country, complete with high-quality materials, expert guidance, and your first glass of wine on us. 🍷
At Art at the Heart, we’re different because social responsibility is as important to us as our passion for great art. We founded Art at the Heart CIC, a not-for-profit organisation, to add value to communities through inclusive arts and culture.
We run small, personalised art sessions to help you grow at your own pace, while offering opportunities to get involved in community art projects and exhibitions.
When you join our Meetup, you’ll not only develop your artistic confidence and wellbeing, you’ll also be helping us make a positive difference in the community.
Join us for creativity, connection, and a little bit of adventure, one Arty Day at a time.

Solihull Art Meetup: Paint-and-Sip (& More!)
The Beech House, 727 Warwick Rd, Solihull, GB- Do you enjoy drawing or painting, but rarely get the chance to actually sit down and do it?
- Curious about artists and cultures, but not in a dry, textbook way?
- Enjoy having a laugh, meeting new people, and doing something creative with your evening?
Then Solihull Art Meetup is the perfect group for you.
Inspired by the café culture of 1900s Paris, where artists sketched the world around them in cafés and bars, we hold relaxed monthly paint-and-sip evenings for adults.
Led by experienced teaching artists with over 25 years in art and design education, we look at artists and then give you the space to create your own response. You can take guidance or follow your own direction. No rows of identical paintings - each piece reflects the person who made it.
It’s a chance to switch off, be creative, and enjoy good company. There’s always conversation, a few laughs, and a welcoming mix of people.
No experience required.Booking:
