WARRINGTON VIP – Visually Impaired People – hosted a successful “sold-out” Brush and Tipple fundraiser at the Old School Project, Fairfield, bringing together 30 people for an evening of creativity, laughter, and community spirit.
The evening, in support of Warrington VIP’s charitable work, began with refreshments provided by Fairfield Café before being officially opened by Warrington VIP’s chief executive officer, Fiona, Patterrson, whose light-hearted introduction set a fun and welcoming tone.
Then it was on with the painting. Guests were guided by Imogen and Ruby from Brush and Tipple through the creation of a wildflower sunrise painting using acrylics and just three brushes.
Participants enjoyed a mid-session break with a delicious selection of food and drinks prepared by Fairfield Café, including halloumi fries, mini burgers, chips, hot chocolate, gin and wine. A raffle was also held, with a fantastic hamper up for grabs.
Despite following the same instructions, each attendee produced a unique piece of artwork, creating a vibrant and inspiring atmosphere throughout the room.
VIP chairman Geoff Settle, said: “It was a huge success and really showcased what a fantastic venue The Old School Project is for community events. Fiona’s opening remarks set the tone, the atmosphere was full of laughter and high spirits, and the artwork produced was impressive.”
