We did a team bonding event at Painting with a Twist in downtown Detroit and we had a great time! Kristy was very kind, enthusiastic, and willing to help teams members throughout the painting process if needed. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience. (:

I had a great time spending New Year’s Eve at Painting with a Twist in downtown Detroit. The overall experience was fun, creative, and a perfect way to ring in the new year. I loved being able to make both a painting and a candle, it made the night feel extra special. The instructor Neo, was very patient, helpful, and knowledgeable, and the instructor’s helper was nice and supportive as well. Together they made the class easy to follow and enjoyable. The atmosphere was chill and everyone seemed to be having a good time. This was not my first time attending. I also came for New Year’s Eve in 2024 and had an absolute blast then as well. That consistency is why I can confidently say I will definitely be returning to the downtown Detroit location again. A fun and memorable way to celebrate New Year’s Eve.

We had a great time. The atmosphere was calm and soothing. Our instructor Ashley was wonderful. Due to us being late we didn't get to finish our painting but they said we could come back. I would recommend this place. ❤️ 💙
