Tipsy Ypsi offers public events throughout the week and private events anytime. With over a 14 years of Paint & Pour Party experience, we’ve developed a creative night on the town that combines art and entertainment! Grab a drink and a brush and follow along as we walk you, step-by-step, through the evening’s featured painting.
Events run for approximately 2-3 hours with FREQUENT sip breaks. You will leave with a painting that is uniquely yours, and you’ll be amazed at the art you can bring to life.

90-minute “sampler” classes or short beginner-friendly hands-on workshops for adult members of the community to explore textiles and the fiber arts.
A total of twenty-four (24) different classes are offered in various techniques including spinning, weaving, felting, and braiding. Classes are open to the public with a $10 contribution (per class) toward materials and limited to two (2) classes per person. Class sizes are small and require advance reservations.
A wide variety of fiber art topics will be presented including weaving techniques in multi- harness, pin loom, card or tablet, diagonal, tapestry and weaving on a foam core loom. Spinning methods include drop spindle, finger spinning and traditional spinning wheel. Both wet felting and needle felting classes are scheduled, in addition to braiding, finger loop braiding, and rug hooking. Classes will be instructed by WWAS Guild members, many of whom teach classes professionally and collectively represent decades of experience in the fiber arts. This program is being offered to educate the public and to stimulate a broader appreciation of textiles and the fiber arts in the West Michigan community.
