Paint Along is back at National Museum Cardiff for 2026 - and it's all Hip Hop!
But this time we’re bringing a street style twist. Gather your mates, hit the bar for a drink, and get freestyling!
We’re turning up the volume and vibing with our new Hip Hop Exhibition and you're on the guest list. Channel your inner freestyle artist as we take inspiration from iconic street art legends like Banksy and Mr. Brainwash... but Cymru!
Taking place after hours in the main hall with a live DJ session from DJ Jaffa, this unique urban style paint along experience is one you won’t want to miss.
Whether you’re passionate about painting or just here for the vibes, this event is for everyone – no experience needed.
This is your chance to chillout and unwind while unleashing your inner artist. The perfect midweek evening event for friends, dates and workmates.
