The rumors are true… Sip & Saddle is officially happening! (Or maybe Canter & Cabernet? We still haven’t settled the naming rights.)
📅 Wednesday, July 29th
🕕 6:00 PM
📍 Testimony Wine Bar – Redmond, Oregon
Join the Central Oregon Chapter of the Oregon Dressage Society for an evening of painting, wine, laughter, and horse people doing something other than obsessing over lead changes. Sign up fast as space is limited (you do not need to be a member to attend and guests/non-members are welcome!)
We are thrilled to welcome David Kinker, a professional fine artist and muralist based in Central Oregon, whose work has been featured at Tumalo Art Company and the Tower Theater in Bend. David’s work is inspired by the beauty of nature, and he’ll guide us through a fun and approachable painting experience. No artistic talent required (seriously, if you can draw a dressage arena letter, you can do this).
🍴 Come early!
Food will be available for purchase, and attendees are welcome to arrive early to pre-game, socialize, and enjoy a glass before the paint starts flying.
