Art Themed party..Any suggestions?

I am having an "Art" party this weekend for a few close friends and co workers. I have a wide range of art supllies. And was wondering if anyone here might have some art inspired ideas. For food, beverages and how to make it a fun atmosphere. Its going to be very casual. So the goofier or wilder the better.

Art Themed party..Any suggestions?
What a cool theme! Use painter's palettes as plates with little mounds of different colored food as "paint" orange = mashed sweet potato and etc. Have fun! Put utensils in old paint cans and have canvas cloths as table coverings. Maybe serve cocktails made with Van Gogh brand vodka.

Comfy chairs, light music, the heavenly aroma of coffee – what better place for your next party than the neighborhood coffee café? Your friends will find conversation easy as they discuss the merits of mocha cappuccino, soy latte or frozen white chocolate frappé. Encourage your guests to choose baked goods from the food case. You’re picking up the food and drink tab, after all. And whatever the occasion, gifts are right at hand. Whole-bean coffee, French press coffee makers, mugs and tiny gift books are perfect mementos for the guest of honor. Now, regular or decaf?

Reply:I think it would be fun to do the sugar cookies with the white icing - and then give everyone food color paints and paint brushes, and let them "paint" their work of art cookie.





The white icing is basically a box of confectioner's sugar mixed with just a little water and then mix by hand until all the lumps are out of the mixture. Then frost your cookies and let the icing set up - it will harden.





Then just make some more of the white icing and then add food coloring to these, and you can make all sorts of color combinations. These can be painted on the cookies with paint brushes.





Another fun activity would be a garnishes instruction - using speciality knife and veggies (there are books with this info). They are definitely edible works of art.
Reply:My children used to "finger paint" With pudding. In the summer I let them "paint" on their little table outside which I then just hosed off. In the winter they used cookie sheets with lips. I'd put some chocolate, vanilla and strawberry pudding out for them and let them go at it. They loved it and I didn't have to worry if they licked their fingers. LOL You could also have raisins, maraschino cherries, cuts, small marshmallows, etc. to decorate your pieces of artwork.





Or why not consider creating a holiday scene? One Christmas Eve day everyone spent the day creating a Christmas village out of Graham crackers, vanilla wafers, Royal icing, pretzels, various candy, small gingerbread cookie people, wafer cookies, sugar ice cream cones, whatever edible things I could come up with. I covered a large piece of cardboard with foil and people sat down and did their little part of the display and left, maybe came back later, etc. We ended up with 7 unique buildings, fences, roads, trees, flowers, people, an entire edible piece of artwork which I saved until it fell apart a few years ago. (lasted about 10 years)





Of course, if young and silly and not afraid of getting messy you could always create art on each other. (better warn guests beforehand though). People could wear swimsuits (or not) and using chocolate, whipped cream, jellies and jams, sauces, etc. mustard, whatever, paint each other's body

Whatever - have fun!.
