saxon genitive - Use of the possessive apostrophe in a list

If I was to label something




The Poets and Painters' Distillery




do I only apply the possessive apostrophe after 'Painters' as in the text written above, or do I also need to apply one to 'Poets' so that it becomes





The Poets' and Painters' Distillery ?




I'm thinking the former is correct, but cannot be too sure.
