Unguided Free Flow Painting Workshop Reviews

This is a fun activity in Chelsea, London

Grab a brush and let loose in this relaxed, unguided painting session in Chelsea, where the canvas is entirely yours to fill. There's no instructor here – just a creative space, all the materials you need, and as much time as you like to paint your way.

You'll have up to two hours of studio time to get stuck in, with everything provided: acrylic paints, brushes, palette knives, pencils and an apron to keep you mess-free. Choose your surface – a standard or X-large canvas, or a 23cm bear painted with brushes – and take inspiration from the artwork filling the studio, or simply paint whatever's on your mind.

This is a low-pressure, self-led session made for first-timers and seasoned painters alike, whether you come with friends or fly solo. Settle in with something from the full bar – coffee, soft drinks, wine, beer or cocktails – and grab a pizza or snack while you paint, making it as social or as switch-off-and-focus as you'd like.

By the end, you'll walk away with a one-of-a-kind piece that's entirely your own, plus a genuinely feel-good couple of hours spent creating at your own pace.

**Important to know:**
- This is an unguided session (no instructor)
- Duration: up to 2 hours
- Children are welcome with adult supervision (children must not be left unattended)
- Pouring paint on bears is not permitted during Free Flow sessions — please book a fluid bear workshop for this
- We aim to maintain a respectful and enjoyable environment for everyone. Please treat staff with respect and drink responsibly. Entry may be refused if someone is highly intoxicated.

“Amazing place. Hosted a birthday party here and the artplay staff were so helpful. Would really recommend. They provided us a nice area for all of us to sit together. The supplies available are great, all sorts of paints, brushes etc. The bar is great with a nice range of drinks, even has good coffee! They let me cut my birthday cake there too which was super kind of them :) One tiny nitpick, there was no WiFi (I wanted to use a website to give examples of the art challenge but the 4G/5G signal wasn't too great either). Obviously not a real problem but something to be aware of if you are planning to use online resources for your class!”

The walls were decorated with paintings and one could get inspired to start a new painting,the supplies were good quality and there was quite a wide variety or choice. The atmosphere was really creative,nice ambience music and fun vibes. I loved every bit.”
