TUCKED AWAY OFF ST MARTIN'S LANE
Find Us In Goodwin's Court
Goodwin's Court is a charming little alley in Covent Garden, running alongside New Row between St Martin's Lane and Bedfordbury.
Harry Potter fans might like to know that it's rumoured to have inspired Diagon Alley. It's also where you'll find us!
Getting in is easy. The Bedfordbury end is step-free, while the St Martin's Lane end has two steps.
Once you're in the alley, our signs will point you to our door. We're up two flights of stairs, so aim to arrive about ten minutes before your workshop starts. That leaves time to get your coat off, grab your bubbles and settle in.
We're an easy walk from Trafalgar Square as well as Leicester Square, Covent Garden and Charing Cross stations. There’s more on getting here below.

PAINT, SIP, EXPLORE
Make A Day Of It In Covent Garden
One of the best things about our studio is what's right outside. Covent Garden Market, Trafalgar Square, Soho and the rest of the West End are all a short walk away, so a workshop slots easily into a day or night out in London. The best part? You don’t need any painting experience to join in! Here are a few ideas that we’ve planned around our different workshop times to get you started.
Weekend Daytime
Saturday 11am to 1pm, 2.30pm to 4.30pm or Sunday 12pm to 2pm
Browse the shops and stalls around Covent Garden Market and the Piazza, or pop into the National Gallery on Trafalgar Square, then come and paint. Or paint first and explore afterwards, canvas in hand.
Saturday Night
Saturday 6pm to 8pm
Start your evening with a paintbrush and a glass of bubbles, then head into Soho, Seven Dials or Chinatown for dinner and drinks.
After Work
Monday to Friday, 7pm to 9pm
Swap the usual after-work drinks for something a bit more creative, then grab a late bite nearby. There's no shortage of places to eat in Covent Garden!
Visiting London for the weekend? A workshop makes a nice change of pace from sightseeing and you'll leave with a painting you made yourself, which beats a fridge magnet as a souvenir. So if you’re looking for things to do in Covent Garden, or planning a day out in London, add us to the list!
RAIN, RAIN, GO AWAY
A Fun Indoor Activity in London
We all know the weather in London has a mind of its own. When the heavens open, our studio is a warm, bright place to spend a couple of hours, with the music on, a glass of bubbles in hand and a blank canvas in front of you.
It's one of the more colourful rainy day activities in London and with workshops on weekday evenings and on the weekends, there's usually one to fit around the forecast. Shake off your umbrella, pick up a brush and let the painting begin!
CAN'T MAKE IT TO LONDON?

Not everyone can get to Covent Garden, so we've made it possible to enjoy sip & paint at home too. Our DIY art kits come with everything you need: two canvases, a set of paintbrushes, a paint palette, acrylic paints, an arty beret and a Brush & Bubbles keepsake box.
