Art & Libations, San Diego

Rock 'n' roll. Tattoos. Southern Californian culture. These are a few of the things in which Art & Libations owner Tiffany Acker finds inspiration. She channels that inspiration into the classes she organizes at Art & Libations, during which instructors help students create unique artwork. The setup isn't too far off from that of other paint-and-sip businesses; the main difference is that there's a hip edge to the subject matter and the general vibe at Acker's events. Canvases, paint, paintbrushes, easels, aprons, and nontoxic, water-based acrylic paint are all provided.
