WagWorks to host dog-friendly sip and paint evening in Islington this April

A London-based membership club for dogs is hosting a creative social evening in Islington on 22nd April, offering dog owners the opportunity to paint alongside their pets while enjoying a drink.

WagWorks, which operates membership spaces in both Fulham and Islington, will run the Sip & Paint session from 7.30pm till 9 at its north London branch. It’s aimed at dog owners seeking a sociable and creative evening out, with all painting materials provided on the night. Attendees can bring their dogs or work from a favourite photograph of their pet, and the evening will be led by artist and illustrator Stenning Designs, who aims for an experience that’s accessible regardless of skill or experience.

WagWorks describes itself as a membership club built around dogs and their owners. Its two London sites offer a range of services under one roof, including daycare, healthcare, grooming, training and a coffee shop, all delivered by experienced industry professionals. The dog-friendly format reflects a broader trend of venues and businesses catering specifically to pet owners. London in particular has seen a rise in dog-friendly hospitality and leisure, ranging from dedicated cafés to fitness classes that welcome four-legged participants.

The 22nd April session runs for 90 minutes in the evening with all materials included, so dogs and their human companions can join after work.
