Wine & Design is a paint-and-sip studio at 1536 Fording Island Road, on the mainland just before the bridges to Hilton Head Island. An instructor walks the class through one painting step by step, so no art experience is needed, and everyone leaves with a finished canvas. Guests bring their own wine or other drinks.

How a Class Works

Each class has a set design, posted on the studio’s calendar, with afternoon and evening sessions. Canvas, paint, brushes and an apron are ready at your seat. You pick a class, book it online and arrive a little early to pour a drink and settle in. The studio does not take walk-ins, so book ahead, especially for a rainy day in summer.

Reviewers single out the owner and lead instructor, Erin, for her humor and patience, and many are vacationing couples and friends who wanted something different from the beach for a night.

Parties and Kids

The studio hosts private parties (birthdays, bachelorettes, team outings) and runs kids’ classes and camps under the Art Buzz Kids name. Call (843) 683-9101 between 10 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. to plan one; the studio is closed Sunday.
