Virtual AAPI Heritage Month Paint and Sip

Celebrate AAPI Heritage Month through creativity, culture, and conversation with this interactive Virtual AAPI Heritage Month Paint and Sip.

Hosted live by a professional artist, this engaging online painting experience invites guests to recreate artwork inspired by some of the most influential Asian American artists while connecting with colleagues from anywhere.

Before the event, each participant receives a complete painting kit shipped directly to their door. On the day, your group joins a live virtual session where your artist host guides everyone step-by-step through their chosen artwork in a relaxed and supportive environment.

Guests can choose from a range of inspiring painting options influenced by renowned Asian American artists including:

• 🎨 Roger Shimomura: Create artwork inspired by his vibrant pop art style, blending Japanese American history with contemporary culture.
• 🏙️ Dong Kingman: Paint expressive cityscapes inspired by one of America’s most celebrated watercolor artists.
• 🌾 Hung Liu: Explore richly textured artwork inspired by the internationally acclaimed Chinese American painter, known for combining portraiture with powerful storytelling.

Throughout the session, your host will share fascinating stories about each artist, their work, and their contribution to American art and culture.

No previous painting experience is required. The workshop is designed for all skill levels and focuses on creativity, self-expression, and enjoying the experience together rather than artistic perfection.

Guests are welcome to bring their own drinks and snacks, or optional beverage and snack deliveries can be arranged separately for your team.

Perfect for AAPI Heritage Month celebrations, employee resource groups, DEI initiatives, virtual team building events, and company socials, this experience offers a creative and memorable way to celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander heritage through art.

The session concludes with a fun “show and tell” where guests reveal their finished artwork together, followed by an optional group screenshot to capture the experience.
