Paint Party That Comes to You – A Creative Alumni Celebration
Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts, wanted to host a memorable event to engage alumni and strengthen connections within their community. The Alumni Office sought something beyond a standard reception, an activity that was hands-on, creative, and deeply personal to Clark’s legacy.
That’s where Canvas n Cup came in. As one of New England’s leading paint party providers, Canvas n Cup specializes in both in-studio and on-location paint and sip events. Known for designing custom paintings for universities, companies, and organizations, our team crafts experiences that combine fun, relaxation, and artistic expression.
For this event, Clark University invited Canvas n Cup to bring the paint party to their campus, transforming a familiar space into an interactive art studio.
Custom Artwork by Mahsa – Clark University Building Design
Canvas n Cup’s Mahsa Ghavamian collaborated closely with the university to design a custom Clark University Building painting, capturing the architectural beauty and school pride that define the campus. The goal was to create a project that would resonate emotionally, allowing every alumnus to paint a meaningful piece of their alma mater.
Our mobile paint party setup included easels, canvases, aprons, paints, brushes, and everything needed to make the experience effortless. We handle all event logistics, from set-up to clean-up, so clients can focus on enjoying the experience.
During the event, our friendly instructor led participants step-by-step, making it easy for everyone, regardless of artistic experience, to create something beautiful.
