Your next favorite thing to do in New York City involves a canvas, some acrylics, and an Australian Shepherd named Oso who may or may not critique your brushwork!
Paint with Oso is a laid-back acrylic painting class at Studio Oso, a creative studio near the Brooklyn Navy Yard, built specifically for people who've always wanted to try painting but weren't sure where to start. Whether you've been Googling "how to paint with acrylics" or "painting for beginners" and feeling mildly intimidated by the results, this is the class that meets you exactly where you are. Some sessions are themed, others are more free-form -- either way, you're encouraged to take your canvas in whatever direction feels right. A working artist is there throughout to help with techniques, color mixing, and as much or as little guidance as you want. All supplies are included; it's BYOB, and the vibe is genuinely more "fun afternoon making art with good people" than a formal painting lesson.
You'll leave with a finished acrylic painting you actually made yourself -- something worth hanging on your wall and, honestly, bragging about a little!

Studio Oso is a neighborhood creative space in NYC, dreamed up by Anvesh and Aanya — a couple who love trying new things and wanted a place that made that easier, more affordable, and more fun. Tired of the city's usual barriers to having a good time (sky-high prices, packed waitlists, and ticking clocks), they built something with a different spirit: a welcoming, come-as-you-are space for making things, moving your body, meeting people, and just… showing up.
The studio is named after Oso, their Australian Shepherd and unofficial mascot, who — as the story goes — simply needed more people around, and this seemed like the most logical fix. Studio Oso is equal parts passion project and neighborhood gathering spot, run by two people who aren't professional artists or instructors, just genuinely enthusiastic participants in their own space. That energy shows. You don't need to be good at anything to belong here — you just need to be curious enough to try!
