TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — A local boba tea shop is hosting a Pride Month kick-off paint and sip event Friday evening on the Eastside, and whether you’re a seasoned painter or a bold beginner, you’re invited.
If you’re looking for a fun way to get creative this weekend, then look no further than stopping by The Korean Rose on Friday, where local art educator Caroline Martin will lead a step-by-step workshop where you can paint directly onto vintage vinyl records.
This event is all about celebrating love, art, and community and the best of all, you’ll get all the painting material you need, plus the vinyl!
Tickets are $45 each, and $10 from each ticket will benefit the Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation (SAAF). There will also be local art sold, where 100% of the proceeds will benefit SAAF.
While you paint, you can sip on some drinks like tea, coffee, slushies, and a special rainbow drink is available for purchase throughout the event.
This event is all ages, but if you’re under 15, you must bring an adult.
The event is Friday, May 30, from 6-8 p.m. at The Korean Rose, located off Speedway and Wilmot at 6118 E. Speedway Blvd, Suite 102.
