Sip Dip Paint doesn't have any one location because it rotates venues, but usually stays in Macomb or St. Clair County. If you check around online, you can sometimes find Amazon Local or other deals for the business, too. The venue is usually a local bar or restaurant, which sometimes does drink/appetizer specials that night. Sip Dip Paint's events are led by "talented local artists," and you'll be taken step by step through completing a painting - no prior painting experience required. The business also does private parties, girls night out, bachelorette parties, birthday parties and more.

Two classrooms are available, and Paint and Pour also has studio space for rent, as well as private parties.
