Massage Envy Spa in Bellingham is sponsoring its first ever Date and Paint Nights with their very own artist (and Massage Envy Bellingham sales manager) Kevin Coleman.
Coleman will teach two classes: Sunday, August 30 from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Sunday, September 13 from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The first class will be held at Date and Paint, 4071 Hannegan Road, and the second in the SpringHill Suites lobby at 4040 Northwest Avenue.
For a cost of $40.00 per class (to be paid the night of the event), students will create a piece of art they can take home and enjoy.
“We’ll be doing a nature scene the first night and a Day of the Dead painting the second night, to go with the arthritis theme,” says Coleman, a former fine arts teacher and interior designer with a background in space planning and color theory. He’s also created murals for homes and businesses.
“I love teaching and helping people find their creative, healing side,” Coleman says. “I also believe that art is expression¾not perfection.”
These Paint & Date Nights are all about being creative and having fun, with the added bonus of raising money for the Arthritis Foundation as part of Massage Envy’s annual Healing Hands for Arthritis fundraising campaign. On September 16, $10 from every massage will go directly to the Arthritis Foundation.
“I believe in what we do and who we do it for,” Coleman says of the work his entire Massage Envy team does for the Arthritis Foundation. “I come from a family that has various forms of arthritis and limited mobility, and it’s a cause I believe in.”
Massage Envy also believes in supporting the Arthritis Foundation, teaming up with them every year to raise monies to help find a cure and treatments for those afflicted with arthritis through Healing Hands for Arthritis, the Jingle Bell Run/Walk, and other fundraising events.
Spaces for Paint and Date Night are filling up fast. To join in, contact a front desk person at Massage Envy Bellingham, 330 36th Street, or call 360-756-1100.
Date and Paint Night is simply a new way Coleman¾and Massage Envy Bellingham¾can help the Arthritis Foundation help so many millions living with this disease.
“It’s going to be fun,” Coleman promises.
