Bottle & Bottega, a wine and art entertainment studio, with an eclectic look, upscale approach and emphasis on real art, is a creative alternative to an ordinary event.
One part artistic adventure and one part cocktail party, the studios are great for fun and unique teambuilding activates, corporate parties or other group needs. Inspiring individuals to collaborate and think creatively, and helping to build trusting relationships in a positive working environment, the studios offer entertainment-style instruction on all types of paintings; on canvas, wine glass painting, mosaics and mixed media collage.
Groups are provided all the art supplies, including aprons and a professional artist to provide step-by-step guidance to complete their masterpieces. And don’t forget the ultimate elixir of creativity—wine! The studios can arrange for catering and it’s BYOB.
Bottle & Bottega can customize any type of event year-round, and offers special programs around the holidays, such as glass ornament painting. There’s also an option to give back with Creating for a Cause fundraiser parties. Each will paint their take-home piece of artwork and Bottle & Bottega will donate a portion of the ticket sales back to a charity of choice.
A huge hit is the Company Mural option, which has the entire group painting on one (or a few!) large canvases, strategizing and working together to create a single masterpiece. Another great choice for groups and teambuilding is Follow the Artist, where an artist instructs on one image from the gallery of artwork and the entire group paints and learns about the same image. In addition, the Pick Your Painting option allows the organizer to select four paintings to be taught about during the event.
Bottle & Bottega was founded in 2009 in Chicago by Stephanie King-Myers and Nancy Bigley, who left their successful careers in corporate America to pursue their passions and vision to start a business of their own. There are nearly now 20 locations across the U.S.
