I had high hopes and excitement to try this location out. Tried reaching this company 13 different times. 9 phone calls(6 different times of day to be sure I was not bothering them during a session) two texts, one email, and one FAQ inquiry. I got one text asking "what can I help you with?" I responded but never heard back. I decided to just pop in to the location after work to ask my questions, they could be busy I understand that. They were closed. The site and Google says they're open until 9pm. How this place is still on business is beyond me.

This review is based upon my own experience. I went on a Sunday morning at 11am. I enjoyed the experience of painting with a friend. We had Groupons and were excited to go. I did not enjoy waiting 30 minutes for other participants to show up (not communicated), the Pina Colada was not good to me, having to pay for water to drink, not being able to refresh the water for the brushes but it was ok for a Sunday afternoon activity... The prices for snacks were super reasonable. The young man in the front needs Customer Service training.

Every time I go here it’s a great time! We did the Valentine Gnome painting and bottomless mimosas!! The artist goes at a pace that everyone in the class can keep up with. I would say about half way through they do fun drawings where you can win different prizes based off of the painters names located on the bottom of your seats! I recommend!

I have attended wine and painting classes in the past, but unfortunately, this one fell short of expectations. I am by no means an artist, nor do I have any prior experience with painting or drawing, so I approached the class as a complete beginner. The class was scheduled to begin at 6:30 PM but started approximately 30 minutes late. The room was set up with long tables, making the space feel somewhat cramped for a class of about 20 participants. Each person was given a small Dixie paper plate with standard paint colors—red, blue, black, green, orange, white, yellow, and purple. However, the reference image featured neon-like colors, which were not provided. Additionally, each participant received a single cup of water for four brushes, and the instructor advised that the water did not need to be changed. This was surprising, given the significant contrast between dark and light colors in the painting. For wiping excess paint and water, we were given a single thin napkin similar to those from McDonald’s, which was replaced only three times during the session. Many participants, myself included, resorted to using the table covering or even their aprons to clean their brushes. The ambiance was pleasant at first, with background music playing, but it quickly became an issue as it muffled the instructor’s voice over the microphone, making it difficult to hear instructions. The class initially progressed well, particularly during the sky portion of the painting. However, the small plates provided little space for proper color mixing. Our group requested an extra plate for mixing, but it was never received. The painting began with a black base on two halves of the canvas, which resulted in murky water. This became problematic when transitioning to highlights and gradients with lighter colors, as brushes remained tainted from the dark water. Without an option to refresh the water, many participants struggled with color accuracy. A simple water station or dump bucket for those who wanted to change their water would have been a helpful addition. The class included a break that was scheduled to end at 8:10 PM but ran long due to an activity where participants spun a prize wheel. While this was a nice touch, it cut into valuable painting time. When the class resumed around 8:30 PM, the instructor rushed through the remaining steps at an overwhelming pace. At one point, I found myself two steps behind, struggling to follow along. The biggest issue became apparent—the painting we were recreating was not an original piece created by the instructor but rather a screenshot of an Amazon tapestry. This meant the instructor was attempting to replicate it in real-time, rather than guiding us through a painting he had prepared in advance. As a result, the process became disorganized, and by the end, I opted to improvise rather than attempt to keep up with the rapid instructions. Overall, for $30, it was a “you get what you pay for” experience. While the instructor was friendly and clearly knowledgeable, I feel the class would have benefitted from a properly pre-painted reference piece, better supplies, and a more structured approach.

This was out first time here. It was a surprisingly comfortable and cool space. Lots of art on the walls and funny pictures and clever posters. The drinks were priced very fair. The mother and daughter team did an excellent job hosting the event. Everybody had fun. The art lesson was very well organized.
