Queer Craft and Sip
A relaxed two hours of painting, drawing, and having a quiet drink with other queer folk on Smith Street. Artist Merichel Sanchez hosts the evening at The 86, guiding an optional painting session on tapping into your creative source, or simply leaving you to paint and sketch whatever you fancy at your own pace. All the gear is supplied—acrylics, brushes, and canvas—along with a shared fruit platter to graze on while you work. Drinks are available from the bar, and there is zero pressure to walk out with a gallery piece. It is strictly an 18+ affair designed for the community to unwind and connect without the usual high-volume pub noise.
