Popup Painting and Events
Testimonials
We loved the event hosted by Pop up painting. It was a lot of fun, and the team hosting were fantastic. Our artist really helped guide us throughout the event and the PopUp Painting manager was a great host. Throughout the process the team were really organised in getting information over to us and helped us plan the perfect event.

‘We loved working with Pop Up Painting. They were incredibly efficient in the lead-up, and flexible with regards to our needs – we ended up with a fantastic event that everybody who attended loved, as well as some great paintings. Thank you to all the team!’
Poppy, Penguin Randomhouse
"PopUp Painting proved a fabulous part of a recent hen party. Organizing a party from abroad was a challenge, but Phyllissa set my mind at ease with regular updates and prompt replies to my multiple emails. Thank you! The venue, Brasserie Blanc on Southbank, was ideal: we had a private room, and ample space to unleash our creativity! Instructor Anna was extremely helpful and patient in guiding us in creating our masterpieces, while Gareth kept us supplied with wine, paint - and top tips in removing acrylics from clothing! A huge thank you to the entire team - we had a blast, and gave the bride-to-be a hen party to remember!"

"Our team attended a PopUp painting session in London Bridge. Even though most of us were amateur painters and had not picked up a paintbrush in years, we were immediately able to learn the easy style that PopUp teaches. The friendly and fun atmosphere in the room allowed us to ease into two hours of relaxation at the easel. The instructors were welcoming, easy to understand and gave guidance that meant everyone ended up with a painting they would be proud to hang in the office (and have). Full credit must go to PopUp Painting for organising such a pleasant experience – our team would gladly book this event again."

PopUp Painting was a great corporate event. They were extremely accommodating of our needs and inflexible schedule while also providing a great solution for what could’ve been a very boring morning. The painting session was filled with laughs, chatter and really brought out the creative streak in people – We were blown away by the final masterpieces! Thank you so much PopUp Painting, we absolutely loved it!
Nishi, Air New Zealand
This was a well organised and fun team building activity. All participants loved it and have recommended it to others. The PopUp Painting Team did a great job at guiding the group through the different stages of the painting and everyone was very proud of their ‘masterpiece’. Highly recommend it to groups of all abilities and interests!
Ana – London Business School
Putting the fun at the heart of fundraising! It can be difficult sometimes to find ideas or organise fundraising events which are going to be both fun and an effective fundraiser - Pop-up Painting certainly tick both boxes. Phyllissa and the team make the whole experience very easy and I think that shows in how much everyone enjoyed the event. A huge thank you from me for your support of the Nine for Nicky campaign and I can't wait for the next one!
Oli Monks – CIRCA
"We have now partnered with Popup Painting for two of our charity event and we have had a fantastic experience both times. It is such a fun night and the Popup painting team do a great job at running the logistic on the night, which means we can enjoy taking part in the painting and mingling with the supporters, whilst raising much needed funds."
