As we become a web-centric world, more online
opportunities arise and the love for arts is becoming one of the most-sought
activities for kids and kids-at-heart.
Therefore, Eco Hotel Philippines, together with
Iris Alonzo, came up with an art workshop called “Paint and Sip."
Paint and Sip is an instructional painting lesson
usually consists of groups and accompanied by wine or other beverages. This
event has increased rapidly since 2007. Furthermore, Iris started Paint and Sip
in Yangon in July 2017 as a way to raise funds to run a primary school in an
isolated village in Mon State. Her event lives on in the Philippines to fund
art scholarships and to encourage people to explore their artistic capacities
with the help of wine and friends.
They have invited talented and accomplished artists to
share their expertise and journey to make it even more effective and incredible
event for attendees.

Spanish teacher, but her true passion is painting. She started at the tender
age of 6 and is happy to finally have found a relevant cause for her talent.

Iris is not an artist but an art enthusiast, with 6
years of development work experience in AIESEC, an international NGO. Through
