Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a class cost?
Classes are 2 or 3 hours and cost $40- $47 respectfully. Special event classes are $70
When do I need to arrive for my event?
Doors open 30 minutes before class starts to allow time for you to get settled in and mingle before the painting starts
Is there reserved seating?
Yes, we have your easel set up for you at your spot before you arrive for class. If you have friends attending the class that you’d like to sit by, you can let us know when you book the class or you can send us an email (…just make sure to give us at least 24 hours notice).
What is the cancellation policy?
Our cancellation policy is as follows: all cancellations for classes can have a reschedule into a future class or a credit value of the class that is good for up to 60 days. Please contact the studio for private party cancellation policy. Due to the nature of our classes we do not give refunds only class credits as stated upon making your reservations. Credits are valid for 60 days.
What should I bring to class?
We provide the canvas, easel, brushes, paints, and apron for the class. All you need to bring are appetizers you might want during the class. We have plates, napkins, and silverware for your use. We do not have the ability to reheat food. **Kentucky state law prohibits BYOB. We do not allow outside beverages.** Our studio features a bar where you can purchase beer, wine by the glass or the bottle, several varieties of bourbon & vodka, as well as specialty drinks.
I don't have any artistic talent. Will I be able to complete the painting?
Absolutely! Our artist will guide you step-by-step through the featured painting and will ensure that you stay on track to completing your masterpiece by the end of class. There are no mistakes, but Acrylic paint dries quickly, making 'happy accidents' easy to fix and perfect.
When does the next month's calendar of events get posted?
We try to post the next month's calendar around the 15th of the month. If you'd like to receive an email each month when our new calendar is posted, be sure to add yourself to our email list.
What should I wear to class?
No dress code here...dress casual or dress up. We will provide you with an apron but painters have been known to get involved in their work of art. Don't wear anything you would be heartbroken to get paint on!
Can a minor attend if I promise he/she won't be drinking?
Please keep in mind others around you may be consuming adult beverages so some language may be more advanced. Minors are welcomed with an adult however we are considered a bar.
Can I bring my own wine or drinks?
No- Kentucky law prohibits BYOB (including non alcoholic drinks, tumblers and bottled water), but we have a full bar for your enjoyment!
Are drinks included in the cost of my class?
Just like other entertainment venues, drinks are additional. The Kentucky ABC prohibits any establishment to give away alcoholic beverages for free.
Do you offer classes for kids?
Yes! We offer 1-2 "all ages" classes per month. We do not recommend children under 13 attend an adult class as we are considered a bar.
