Pick up a brush with University Life and join us for Painting with Strangers! Make new friends, dive into paint by numbers, and enjoy tasty mocktails and snacks.

After a fun warm-up icebreaker, choose a paint-by-numbers design and settle in to paint, chat, and hang out with new friends.

What you can look forward to: 

  • All paint-by-number supplies provided
  • Mocktails and snacks
  • Making new friends
  • Fun icebreakers to spark conversation

Take a study break, grab a brush, and connect with fellow students in an easygoing space.

All students are welcome. Entry is first come, first served until we reach capacity or run out of supplies.
