Painting with a Twist FAQ
What is Painting with a Twist?
Painting with a Twist is a FUN art studio that provides a carefree escape and easy to follow painting instructions in an entertaining venue! Our events are perfect for several occasions: date nights, girls' night out, team building, birthday parties, kids camps, anniversaries, bachelorette parties, wedding showers, and more! No experience is needed. Simply show up, follow along with a talented local artist, enjoy your favorite beverage, and create something amazing! Our events include painting on canvases of all sizes, wood boards, and wine glasses. Our drink menu includes wine, beer, seltzers, soda, and coffee. Pre-packaged snacks are provided! Please remember that no outside beverages of any kind are allowed in the studio.
Can I stop in anytime and paint? What is Open Studio?
We typically hold events at specific times, including open studios. Our open studios are self-led DIY classes, and guests will be provided with written instructions. You can choose any painting from the 'At Home Kit' tab above! An artist will be present to answer questions and provide tips but does not walk patrons step by step. You can sign up online, and Open Studios are offered once a month. These events are perfect for groups that can't decide which event to sign up for, as everyone can do their own thing! Be sure to sign up ahead of time so that our artists can prepare your materials.
We now offer Pop In & Paint! Simply pop in during our office hours and paint! Pop In & Paint functions the same as open studio classes where guests will be provided with written instructions with an artist present to answer questions or provide tips. Please note that Painting with a Twist can not help with personal artworks or pieces from other paint & sip studios.
Are we allowed to bring in beverages and food?
BYOB is prohibited in Indiana. For your enjoyment, we offer wine, beer, soft drinks, and snacks in-house. We do not allow outside beverages of any kind in the studio per Indiana State Law.
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, canvas, brushes, paints, and step-by-step art instruction throughout the class! When class is done, your artwork is ready to take home and hang!
Can my child come with me to paint?

Can my friends come and watch us without painting?
