Painting And Other Fun Things To Do, ASAP!
If you’re looking for some fun things to do this weekend (and upcoming week), there are lots of things you can still enjoy during these times. Yes, it’s hard to know what is open and what the hours are if so; And as usual, it’s diffult to make the decison to come out and enjoy the things we always did (in a very differnt way than we used to), or to stay in and comfy at home like most nights.
No matter which you choose to do, we’ve got some great news for you! You can enjoy a painting class from home or in-person!
-- In-Studio Classes --
We know that some people are physically seeing one another, and so for those, our in-studio classes are great for you! We’ve limited the seating in the studio and are taking all of the necessary precautions for following safety guidelines; We’re also making sure to give the studio a good disinfecting, often.
We’ve been hosting customers in the studio for months and everyone has such a great time; It’s nice to see people doing normal things at a time like this, so if you and your friends would like to join us for a class, come on in and see us and remember to invite your friends, too!
-- Virtual Classes --
For those of you who are looking for a virtual experience, we have tons of amazing classes to offer you, as well! We’ve adapted to the virtual side of things very nicely and have been running these classes since March. People love the option of making some art while they’re stuck at home; It’s nice to have a way to unwind and get creative, and who couldn’t use more relaxing activities these days? Buy a bunch of classes for yourself to do during the day when you’re bored or at the end of a long one to de-stress. Buy some for you and some for friends so everyone can make art together - you guys can even Zoom or FaceTime with one another as you all paint the same things and have a blast making memories.
If you’re looking to spend time in a small group, host a painting event at your home and remember to take advantage of these classes and invite others, too!
Prepare drinks and snacks to enjoy as you work with loved ones, whether you’re together or apart, nothing pairs better than wine and painting!
-- Take Home Kits --
Lastly, you may have seen our ’Take-Home Paint Kits’ on the calendar, and these have been very popular as well!
You can paint anytime and anywhere with these popular classes and our customers have been loving these, especially for the kids!
You can buy some of the kids to do while you're busy with work or for you and the hubby to do while the kiddos are watching movie!
Buy some for a small Girls' Night In paint party (in-person or virtual), Or enjoy them for a date night or a relaxing night at home alone!
Keep our private parties in mind (both virtual and in-studio) for your holiday party this year, whether its a traditional office party, family and friends event — no matter what you’re celebrating! You can learn more on our website and book your private event where you get to select the date, time, painting, and guest list of your choice!
**ASAP though, as these parties do sell out fast - especially this year!

MORE THINGS TO DO TO STAY BUSY:
** Reconnect With Loved Ones
Schedule regular calls with friends and family like you would schedule a work meeting. If you can, make them video calls, using FaceTime, Skype, Zoom, or other video-calling options.
Start a text or email chain with friends about good articles to read, videos to watch, podcasts to listen to, songs to listen to, etc.
Catch up with old friends you’ve been out of touch with by email, phone, or on social media platforms.
Play online games with friends using apps, such as Words with Friends.
Start up an impromptu virtual book club with a friend or group of friends, by starting to read the same book together, then check in to discuss it.
Start watching TV shows or movies at the same time with friends, then check in to discuss them.
Call or video-chat with friends while taking virtual tours together of museums, national parks, and more from Google Arts & Culture.
Move together!
Plan walk-and-talk phone conversations for when you walk around your respective neighborhoods, plan to attend the same online workouts, or schedule online dance parties.
Start a recipe exchange with family or friends by email, a shared drive, or Google docs.
Tune in to live-streamed concerts and other events together.
Have neighbors you know? Plan to meet up outside at a safe distance for daily or regular check-ins.
** Get Out and Soak In Some Vitamin D
We know the weather is chilly right now, but it’s impotant to get out and breath in some fresh art and soak in the sun’s rays.
Talk a walk with loved ones or just by yourself to relax and get in touch with the beuatiful outdoor sights. Hike, fish, stroll, picnic, or just sit and read for a while, as often as you can.
