Essential Woman is a curated community for mums who are intentionally putting themselves first again. Through beautifully designed, small-group experiences across London, Birmingham and Nottingham, we create space for connection, confidence and real friendships beyond motherhood.

A Sip and Paint with a twist!
Canvas & Conversations
Grab a drink, pick up a brush, and get ready to see someone (and yourself) a little differently.
Canvas & Conversations is a Sip and Paint with a twist. Instead of painting whatever you fancy, you'll be paired up and asked to paint each other, guided by a set of questions designed to help you get to know one another as you go. Every portrait is a little reflection of the person sitting across from you.

About the event
Canvas & Conversations is a Sip and Paint with a twist.
Come with a friend and show her how you truly see her, or come solo and be paired with someone new, because half the fun is the conversation.
Discover how beautiful it is to be truly seen, and to see someone else the same way, through your art.
This one's for the mums who want an afternoon that's just theirs. Leave life at the door, just a drink in hand, a canvas in front of you, and a couple of hours to simply be.

Most women attend Essential Woman events solo.
We've designed the afternoon to make meeting people easy and comfortable, so you'll never feel like you're standing on your own.
Many women arrive feeling nervous.
Most leave saying:
"I'm so glad I came."
