**A Painting and Wine Class
Find your inner artist as you and your date come in for painting class, where you’ll enjoy some wine and beer, great music, and all of the supplies for painting that you'll need! We’ll have a talented instructor who will walk you through the painting, step-by-step, encouraging you the whole time! Let us know if you need extra help and we’re there for you! Trying something relaxing and creative like a painting class is a fantastic way to interact with your loved one as you get to know more about them and their artistic side.
