What Does a Mix and Mingle Silhouette Artist Do?

A roaming silhouette artist doesn’t wait in a corner. They move among your guests, cutting each person’s profile freehand from black paper with a small pair of scissors. Guests simply turn side-on and carry on their conversation, and a couple of minutes later they are holding a flattering portrait of themselves.

The Perfect Ice-Breaker For Corporate Events

At networking events, launches and awards receptions, a silhouette artist gives guests something to talk about straight away. For corporate events the mount cards can carry your logo, so every guest takes your brand home.

Elegant Entertainment At Weddings

During the drinks reception, while the couple are busy with photographs, a mix and mingle silhouette artist keeps guests entertained and gives each one a personal keepsake of the day. Read more about our wedding silhouette artists.

Perfect For Themed And Black-Tie Events

Silhouettes were the fashionable portraits of the 18th and 19th centuries, so a silhouette artist is a natural fit for Regency, Bridgerton and Jane Austen balls, Great Gatsby and 1920s parties, masked balls and black-and-white evenings. Our artists are happy to dress to suit your theme.

When Does A Mix and Mingle Silhouette Artist Entertain?

1. During the drinks reception.
The most popular time. Guests are standing, chatting and ready to be entertained, and the silhouettes give everyone something to show each other.

2. At the tables, between courses.
The artist works around the tables, so guests can have their silhouette cut without leaving their seats.

3. During the evening.
Perfect for guests who would rather chat than dance, or in a quieter bar or lounge.

Silhouette Artist & Close-Up Magician: Why Not Team Up the Two?

When planning a wedding, a corporate function or a private party, the right mix of entertainment makes all the difference. A silhouette artist and a close-up magician complement each other perfectly.

Mix and mingle entertainers

While a mix and mingle magician amazes small groups with magic right in front of their eyes, the silhouette artist moves among the other guests, cutting portraits they can take home. The entertainment never stops, and nobody is left out.

The Best of Both Worlds

Magic gives your guests a moment of wonder; a silhouette gives them a lasting keepsake. Together they keep the energy high and the conversation flowing from the first drink to the last.
