When was the last time you learn a new skill? Back in your school or college days? Even if you are already in the working world, you can always find time to hone different skills like painting, carving or knitting. Here are the Top 10 Art & Craft Workshops in KL and Selangor that you might want to sign up for.
1) Art & Bonding
Creating a piece of artwork is more than just a self-expression. Art also helps to bring people together and that certainly rings true for Art & Bonding at Desa Sri Hartamas. The staffs are known to be both friendly and helpful, meaning you don’t have to worry even if you have no painting skills. Their “Sip & Paint Night” is particularly a must-try session if you are a first-timer. Imagine the joy of painting while chilling over a glass of wine. Now, that’s the kind of session you don’t want to miss.
