What if I don’t have enough for a Private Party?
Want the perks of a party without the commitment to a minimum number of painters?
Call in and see if the date/time you’re wanting is available and we can let you pick the painting for an Open to the Public Class – no minimum for you!
Limitations on an Open Class are as follows:
- Painting selection may be limited, we will not repeat something we just did or have already coming up on the calendar – but with thousands to choose from, it’s seldom an issue.
- Classes with less than 4 guests may be rescheduled or reservations moved to an Open Studio.
How do I reserve and pay for my party?
The minimum number of painters required for private parties Sunday-Thursday is 10, and for Friday-Saturday is 15.
Click here to Request a Party. Once we have your request, we will confirm your date/time and send you the Party Management Link for your painting selection. We recommend having the minimum number of seats for your event reserved by two weeks prior to your event.
For events where one person is paying for all the reservations, we ask for the first 10 seats to be reserved at the time you confirm your event. The remaining seats are due by two weeks before class.
For events where each guest will reserve their own seat, we simply recommend that your guests register their seats individually – aiming to have the minimum reserved by two weeks before class.
Once the private party has been booked and the painting is selected, the Party Management Link will convert into an Evite Like Invitation link. Hosts can email or print custom invitations. Guests can then go online and individually pay and register for the private party, or the host/hostess may instead pay with one payment for the party.
What if I still don’t have the minimum? If two weeks before class, you still do not have the minimum number of reservations, we have 2 choices. You can agree to pay for empty seats to meet the minimum – OR – we can open your painting time as a public class, doing away with the minimum. In the event that you choose to open your class – the time & painting may be subject to adjustment. However, all guests registered with your party will still be seated together, you’re still welcome to bring all the food/drinks that you like. (Every effort will be made to maintain your party details as initially established.)
Party Room can accommodate a maximum of 24 guests.
Main Room can accommodate a maximum of 62 guests.
(Minimum to reserve Main Room may vary dependent on date requested.)
Private Party Policy:
We may ask that you book a deposit of half your seats when you confirm your date/time. Registration of the minimum number of seats is due by 14 days prior to the party. If you are not yet at the minimum 14 days before the party, we will switch the class over to a public party and remove the responsibility of meeting the minimum. If you have not met the minimum, your painting selection and/or time slot is not guaranteed.
Once the private party has been booked and the painting is selected, the host/hostess will receive a passcode to distribute to guests. Hosts can also email or print custom invitations. Guests can then go online and individually pay and register for the private party, or the host/hostess may instead pay with one payment for the party.
Parties enjoy their studio space for 30 minutes before and after their painting time. Please arrive prior to your paint time to get settled in. We will begin you painting at the time on the calendar. If your party is running late, we can use your hour of party time before starting the painting. Guests staying beyond their allotted time may result in a $50 studio rental charge.
Cancellation Policy - please provide a 2 week notice of event cancellation - cancellations of events within 2 weeks of event date will result in store credit refunds for all guests.
For emergency situations, parties within 2 weeks of event may be rescheduled one time. Once a party has already been rescheduled, it is no longer refundable regardless of notice to cancel.
