Event Details

Unless you've worked out other arrangements with us, doors will open 30 minutes before painting starts. This gives guests time to arrive, settle in and socialize, and gives the host time to set up food or other items for the party.

Painting Selection

Please provide your top painting choice. We have an extensive Master Painting Library with over 1200 painting choices. We offer 2-hour paintings and 3-hour paintings for your to choose from along with many Do-It-Yourself options such as glass painting, chunky yarn classes, paper lanterns, wood palettes, string art, wreaths and much more! (Specialty items such as long canvases have a surcharge added price depending on the project picked).

You don't have to choose a painting in order to book an event, but the final selection must be confirmed with the studio at least two weeks before your event date.

Our painting library is huge! If you need assistance choosing the right painting for your group, just get in touch with us. We've hosted quite a few events and can help you narrow it down.
