Vincent’s Eat-Paint-Love. Studio is a mom owned & operated small business. All of our professional artists are local women who have been with us for years. We opened our doors in 2013 as the very first Sip & Paint studio in the lower Hudson Valley, Dutchess county region and have been painting our hearts out ever since!
What classes do you offer in the studio?
The majority of what we offer is canvas painting classes for children & adults but we love to get creative in all sorts of ways!
