Painting with a Twist FAQ
What is Painting with a Twist?
Painting with a Twist is a fun art studio for anyone interested in painting! In our events we use acrylic paints on canvases, real pine boards, and MDF products and teach the event step-by-step through the specific painting of the day. Most of our guests have no painting experience and all of them have great success!
We also offer candle making! Add a candle to your painting event reservation or come during Pop In & DIY to choose from dozens of scents and make your very own eco-friendly soy wax candle!
Can I stop in anytime and paint?
For self-guided painting fun, we offer "Pop In and DIY" where you can come in and paint almost anything in our gallery! To view our hours/any special hours, please visit the "Pop In & DIY" page.
For our artist-led, step-by-step paintings, we hold events at specific times. To join an event, please view our calendar, select a painting you like and register online. Pre-registration is required for all classes.
Are we allowed to bring in beverages and food?
Our studio is all BYO - we only serve paint water! Feel free to bring in your favorite beverage and some light snacks to enjoy during class! Remember you are painting most of the time so finger foods are best. You are also welcome to bring in a small cooler or ice chest to keep your drinks cold. We do not have a fridge, food plates, or utensils.
Are we allowed to bring in decorations?
Decorations (balloons, banners, etc.) are NOT allowed in our public events and Pop In & DIY. If you would like to decorate for a special occasion, please book a private party. If you are unsure if something is allowed or not, please contact the studio in advance.
Do I need to bring anything with me to paint?
Your reservation fee includes everything you need to create a beautiful and unique painting! When you arrive you are supplied with an apron, surface, brushes, and paints! When the event is done, your artwork is ready to hang. The only thing you may want to bring are some refreshments.
Can my child come with me to paint?
We have specific events on our calendar for young artists!
- Family Fun events are intended for ages 4 and up.
- Teens & Up events are intended for ages 13 and up.
- Evening events on weekends are for adults 18 and older, while evening classes on weekdays are for those 13 and older, unless otherwise stated.
Can I drop my kid off to paint without me?
All children under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian present at all times. The only exception to this rule is Kids Camp, which requires additional paperwork and waivers. Please be sure to purchase both a seat for your child as well as a seat for yourself.
My kid wants to paint but I don't want to paint as well, can I just watch?
All attendees must have a paid seat to stay on the premises during all public instructor-led events, no exceptions. Parents are allowed to stay and not paint during Pop In & DIY, but there may not be more non-painting parents/guardians in your group than there are painters.
Can my friends come and watch without painting?
Everyone needs a paid seat to stay on premises during all events. No unpaid observers are allowed.
