Top Curacao Painting Classes

This is the only calabash painting experience in Curaçao led by a local artist and cultural entrepreneur. At La Hacienda Olivia Plantation you will learn about the centuries old history of calabash on the island, take a picture next to the tree, hold a calabash in your hands, taste local drink & snack, choose your piece: earrings, bracelet, pendant or keychain and paint it yourself with personal guidance. This experience is perfect for curious travelers, culture lovers, families with children aged 8 and up, and anyone who wants to take home something they made with their own hands rather than a mass produced souvenir.

• Unique blend of local cuisine and hands-on creativity • Enjoy local food while painting a Handelskade sculpture, inspired by Curaçao’s UNESCO World Heritage site • No prior artistic skills required, making it stress-free and accessible to everyone • Paint a personal keepsake that reflects your time in Curaçao instead of buying a generic souvenir • A creative pause during your vacation to slow down, relax, and connect in a welcoming setting
