PAINTING UNDER THE INFLUENCE

If you’re a fan of champagne and painting, then Veuve Clicquot has a fun little series of events happening this month that may interest you. Over the next three Wednesdays Veuve will partner with artist Holly Schroder to present the Colourama series, three evenings of champagnefuelled painting lessons. Even if your painting doesn’t get better by the end of the night, your champagne goggles will ensure you believe it has. It’s all part of the lead-up to the NZ Polo Open on February 23 where the Veuve Clicquot Marquee will be keeping the spectators tipsy as heck. Wednesdays February 13, 20 and 27, 6.30pm-8.30pm. Tommy’s Champagne Parlour, Seafarer’s Building, 52 Tyler St, Auckland. Tickets $99 plus booking fee from eventfinda.co.nz
