Artjamz is...cool. Basically, it is an art studio where you can hang out with your friends, or a date, or just to de-stress by yourself, and have a drink while you paint. They have all the supplies you need – paint, brushes, canvas, easels etc and also books for inspiration, and a guide to help you if needed. You can buy a canvas and also time, grab a drink at the bar and go on with the painting.
Now, I am not very artistic, so if you are wary about being creative and painting, there is no need to worry. As soon as you walk in, you will be inspired by all the artwork all over the walls, floor and basically everywhere you look! They also sell art by local artists!
It's a fun time and is great to see everyone else's personal creations. Lastly, the music they play is an interesting mix and definitely adds to the creativity and helps to find your inner artist!
"Tryst" bills itself as Washington DC's living room. On a cold morning, I feel lucky to snag a couch by the gas fire, sink in & order a truly fine coffee.
