Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the class price?
Everything you need to create your masterpiece! This includes a canvas, paints, brushes, and 2.5 hours of guided instruction from our artist.
Do I need any painting experience?
Absolutely not! Our classes are designed for all skill levels, from complete beginners to more experienced painters. Our friendly instructor will guide you step-by-step through the entire process, ensuring you feel confident and have fun.
Can I bring my own drinks or snacks?
Yes, please bring your favorite beverages (the "Sip")! We provide complimentary charcuterie boards (the "Graze") for you to enjoy while you paint. Please check class descriptions for any specific notes on alcohol for all-ages events.
Will we really see the mini highland cows?
Yes! Our studio is located at the beautiful Hillcrest Farms, which is home to a herd of adorable and friendly mini highland cows. They often graze nearby, providing a unique and charming backdrop for your painting experience. While we can't guarantee they'll pose for your painting, they are almost always part of the scenery!
What should I wear?
We highly recommend wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little paint on. We do not provide aprons, and acrylic paint can be tricky to remove from fabric once it dries, so it's best to dress for the mess!

Cancellations made within 48 hours of the class may receive a credit to be used for a future class.
