If you are 21, Paint Nite can be a wonderful opportunity to have a fun night out with friends and create a painting in two hours.

If you haven’t heard about Paint Nite, their slogan is “Drink creatively!” And they really mean it. If you want to drink with friends while painting, Paint Nite is definitely for you.

First, go to PaintNite.com where you put in the town or city where you want to attend a Paint Nite. Then you can choose the between dates in which you want to attend Paint Nite, how far away you want to look for an event, the level of difficulty of the painting, and even the main colors of the painting.

Once you choose the painting and order your tickets, arrive to your chosen event 15-20 minutes early. When you check in with the artist, who is also the host, you can choose your seats. Usually, Paint Nite events are held at restaurants, so there will also be a waiter or waitress so you can order food or drinks during the entire Paint Nite event.

Part of the great thing about Paint Nite is that the artist breaks down the painting. They lead you through how to paint the entire painting – including telling you which brush to use, how to use the brush, how to mix colors, and how to achieve certain looks. Everything is step-by-step and the artist paints with you so they not only tell you how to paint, but they show you how to do it too.

Everyone has their own personality and style so each painting is different, but everyone has fun. There’s music, laughter, painting, food, and lots of drinks! It’s a lot of fun to paint with friends, but Paint Nite can also be a relaxing and fun solo night out, too.

After you attend your own Paint Nite, you’ll get a coupon code from your artist or if you take the survey they sent to you, you can get 35% off your next Paint Nite! I’ve gone to five Paint Nites and they have all been fun, relaxing, and rewarding because I always come away with a painting I’m proud of!
