Channel your inner Bob Ross

Swap your lecture notes for paint brushes

Join us for a relaxed, Bob Ross–inspired painting session where it’s all about good vibes, creativity, and having a go. No experience is required, just a can-do attitude!

Follow along with a calming tutorial, enjoy the process, and create your own version of a peaceful landscape full of “happy little trees”. Whether you’re a budding artist or just in it for the fun, this is the perfect way to unwind and express yourself.

All materials provided, all you need to bring is yourself and your creativity.

ResLife Ambassadors will meet you in the Clevelands lounge. You’ll be able to recognise them wearing a light blue t-shirt or hoodie with the ResLife logo on.

The Clevelands lounge is in the courtyard. The lounge is accessible via card access and seating in the lounge. There are no toilets available in the lounge.

At this event, you're invited to follow a beginner-friendly, step-by-step painting tutorial in the style of Bob Ross. You can follow along at your own pace, and ResLife Ambassadors will be available to explain and demonstrate if you get stuck. You’ll be able to recognise them by their light blue t-shirts and hoodies with the ResLife logo on.

At the start of the event, there will be some unstructured time while waiting for people to arrive which gives you the chance to introduce yourself, meet new people if you want to, and settle in. If you need some help with this, for example, if you arrive on your own, ResLife Ambassadors will happily help introduce you or find a seat on a table.

During the event you can chat while you paint, but the level of focus you put in is completely up to you and to what feels most comfortable.

There is no structured break during this event but you are welcome to leave and re-join at any point. The session runs for around 2 hours, but you can leave at any point and you’ll be able to take your painting home with you.

Refreshments such as snacks, hot drinks will be provided as well as access to a hot water tap. Feel free to also bring your own food and drink.
