Please join us at The Carousel for a monthly social miniature-painting event hosted by Ay Up Georgina and Dan. This is an evening dedicated to painting miniatures, enjoying a nice drink, and spending time with others in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Bring your miniatures, your paints, and enjoy a night of community and painting.

This event was created when Dan and Georgina were talking together about the therapeutic benefits of painting miniatures and how many people are drawn to the positive mental health benefits of making them. We discussed how miniature painting is often a solitary hobby or tied to competitive gaming spaces, and how we wanted to create a space that aims to offer something different. Something that aligns with the reason many people love painting them— how mindful it can be — and creating more community to support the many benefits of painting miniatures.

The intention is to create an inclusive, social space where painters can sit together, create at their own pace, and connect without competition or pressure. This is an open space for people to create, chat, and be in community with like minded people!

All miniature painters are welcome — whether you paint Warhammer, tabletop, or any other miniatures. Experience level doesn’t matter; the focus is on community, creativity, and enjoying the hobby together.

Please bring your miniatures and paints with you.

We have limited supplies to borrow that have been donated for our events.

Please be mindful that this is a 18+ event.

£5 tickets available here or available at the door.
