Cuddle parties, B-Girls and Bake-Offs! Discover the capital's secret subcultures
Social painting
Paintjam, a new social club that’s sprung up at the Candid Arts Centre (3 Torrens St, EC1V 1NQ), invites people to release their inner artist while meeting new folk. They provide the easel, canvas, paint and brushes, and you provide the inspiration. Okay, so you’re more Playschool than Picasso, not a problem – the emphasis here is on expressive creativity rather than masterful technique. Crucially, there’s booze on hand to help you find the muse.
See www.paintjam.co.uk for dates and times. £40, including all art materials. Food and drink served throughout the evening.

wagwan oi can i use this pic cause me teacher makin us do sumthin with body poppin safe yh
Why not go to the original painting gig at Westbourne Studios in Notting Hill.They do recycled canvases for £30 and it is a way cooler venue. www.fig108.com
£40 is steep and makes me think it might only attract city types, etc (who I'm not necessarily interested in meeting). The materials can't cost much more than a fiver so I'd be expecting a lobster dinner for my money.
I agree with Marcus - I'd love a go at this but it's far too expensive... I would maybe fork out 25 quid.
good idea but so exspensive. can we people not organise something this simple with a smaller price? paintjam at your house!
