THE STORY

So, it all began with an idea; something to do with friends rather than just go to a bar or café to hang out, and that’s where we wanted to start creating together! Malmö is a multicultural city and we wanted to add more creative communities to enrich this city with.

Sip and paint is a common concept in America, and a great way of learning how to paint while sipping and socializing in a fun and creative environment. Without limiting it to only painting, we named ourselves Sip & Create. Since we are all creatives we want to offer more creative activities to do together. Being creative was a big part of our childhood, and growing up to become adults, a lot of other parts of life often become the priority. Instead of creating in our loneliness, or not creating at all, we wanted to facilitate the creative process by offering a place where you get guidance, all the material you need and where you don’t need to clean after yourself.

 

AND SO IT BEGAN..

Natalie Fresia and Mia Borstrand are the founders of Sip and Create, and started this journey in 2019 as a fun way of bringing art closer to people, but also to bring people together. From painting together with friends in a basement on a cold winter day in March, they found the joy in teaching, guiding and seeing how people enjoyed themselves while being creative. Mia’s expert knowledge and passion for art, and Natalie’s social and marketing skills, are making Sip and Create, not only a fun place to spend your evening but a way to make new friends and acquire a new set of creative skills.
