Musical Chairs Painting at the Park

Musical Chairs Painting is a collaborative community painting event. It takes place Sunday, June 26th, 2022, from 6 to 8 p.m., at Freedom Park, 1908 East Blvd, Charlotte.

The cost is $15. Registration and more info here.

Meet up and engage in some Pass-Along-Painting!

Here’s how it works: Everyone starts with a painting and when the music stops you pass on the painting to the right! Paintings can start and end however you want! The exciting thing is as the group moves on from painting to painting you’ll be learning to let go and at the end of 1.5 hours you’ll receive the painting you started with, with contributions from everyone at the event.

• Arrive
• Get situated and comfy / get out any snacks you brought
• Contribute a song to the playlist we’ll be painting to
• Start painting…and get ready to pass along the painting the second that the song switches!
• You’ll take home a painting that everyone at the event has contributed to which could be anything from an abstract piece to a landscape to a portrait! No paintings ever turn out the same!

Location and Parking at Freedom Park

The exact location of the class/workshop is Shelter #6 at Freedom Park. Please make sure to read all of the following details before purchasing your ticket!

Parking/Walking to Location
Parking at freedom park is not always easy. There’s a map on the Eventbrite page that shows where we are meeting, and where you could potentially park at Freedom Park. Please make sure to view that. Walking will be required, from parking to Shelter #6. Depending on where you park, it may be a walk of around 0.25 (a quarter) mile.

Once you park, you are welcome to give the organizer a call. The phone number will be sent out in the order confirmation.

 It might be hot in the park!
There will be a cooler with water bottles, and iced coffee. However you are encouraged to dress as lightly as possible, and just be aware that summertime in Charlotte can get very hot. The meeting is in an outdoor shelter, so there’s no air conditioning.

 In the Event of Rain
You will be given a refund in the event of heavy rain and/or storms. The event will be canceled for extreme weather. In the event of light rain, the event will take place, but you can get a refund if you prefer. Although rainy day landscape painting can actually be a lot of fun… just bring an umbrella to get from parking to the shelter!

Try to get to the park about 15-30 minutes early
So you have time to find parking and the painting location!
