Good afternoon everybody. We just want to let y’all know that beginning May 1st , all paint parties will be pre-paid before we sketch your canvas. In our open parties, everyone will have to pay. In our private parties the person booking will have to pay for one spot to hold that date. You have three ways to pay. You can pay by calling the store at 828-524-5676, you can come in the store and pay, or we can invoice you to your email address and it will be sent from square and you can pay securely that way. We understand that life happens so if you cannot come and paint on your scheduled night we will be happy to reschedule you for another night. Please make sure you contact the store to let us know that you will not be here. Often times we have a waiting list, for those wanting to paint. This will give us the opportunity to contact them to come in and have some fun. We are so thankful and blessed to meet so many of y’all each week. We will be celebrating our three-year anniversary in June, so keep watching for some fun stuff coming your way.

Matt paints right along with you giving you techniques for you to use in the future.  The best part is that, Matt pre-sketches most of all the parties we do.

You may bring your beverage of choice, snacks, finger foods, etc.,we provide water.

Just check our calendar on Facebook to see if your date is available.   Everyone paints the same picture, but you get to pick your picture.  We are unique that you pick your colors, your imagination, its your creation.


Pot Luck Once Per month.

Which means you can paint anything we offer in the studio except on wood or the "Red" truck.  Matt is not able to give a lot of instruction but will paint along on a painting to give you some details.  This also gives him a chance to walk around and help some, but the creation is all yours.
