Painting with Bats at Lubee Bat Conservancy

PAINTING with BATS

🦇✨Get ready for a creative adventure like no other! Join us at Lubee Bat Conservancy for a painting party and a private behind-the-scenes tour to meet some of the world’s most incredible giant fruit bats—up close and personal! 🦇✨

Local artist Samm Wehman Epstein of Samm Wehman Art will guide you in painting your favorite pet, animal, or (of course) the beautiful bat!

What to expect:

🎨 The Painting Party (3 hours)

Create your very own masterpiece! Samm will pre-sketch your chosen animal on canvas and guide you step-by-step as you bring it to life.

All art supplies provided by Samm, so just bring yourself and your creative energy!  FYI: The bats won’t be hanging out while you paint in the Education Center, but trust us— our Batcasos will be waiting for you. Creating their very own works of art!

🦇 The Bat Meet & Greet (Tour Time!)

After you finish your painting, go behind the scenes with one of Lubee’s bat experts for an unforgettable encounter with these fabulous animals.
