We celebrated my young niece's birthday at Painting with a Twist in Dallas and let me just say...we…read morehad a blast! The kids were happy, the adults were impressed, and even those of us who weren't painting had fun just being part of the energy. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond. Dana, Tanishia, and our instructor Eva were warm, attentive, and full of great vibes. They created such a welcoming atmosphere that the whole event felt personal and joyful, even though there were other guests in the studio. We had our own table up front with plenty of space for cake, presents, and all the birthday extras. And the glow-in-the-dark private room? Major hit!!We sang Happy Birthday in there, and the staff even played the birthday song over the speakers...it felt like a mini concert moment for the kids. It was the kind of thoughtful touch that made the day feel extra special. I left completely inspired (particularly my inner child). I'm already plotting a return for a grown-up girls' night--but next time, we'll swap the birthday cake for cocktails and small bites. Pro Tips: 1. Check the online calendar to view upcoming paintings, pricing, and reserve your spot. 2. Parking out front and street parking in-back is limited, so consider valet next door. 3. The vibe is upbeat, fun, and easygoing: perfect for parties, dates, and hangouts. 4. Ask about the private room for special occasions if you have 8-15 people, the glow-in-the-dark setup is a total crowd-pleaser. Happy Painting :-)

Texas Wood & Wine was the perfect place since it gave us room to spread out while still having a fun time! The way it goes is you select your design, build your board (nail gun and all!), stain, paint, and viola! Enjoy your masterpiece! We went for brunch and set up food and mimosas. The owner/instructor was so sweet and made sure we were safe (nail guns and champagne, hello?). I absolutely love my board and whole heartedly recommend them for your next socially-distanced girl's gathering!

I booked Buzzed Art Nite to host a special event celebrating black history month. The event was…read moresuch a success! They communicated at every turn followed up on special requests making accommodations for our needs. It is not easy pulling of corporate sponsored events, but the owner Tanasha, made this process feel easy. Everyone loved the event. The main arts Josh, is so talented. I am getting messages from the attendees that they had a great time and would love to do this activity again. Now for some info on what they offered. Her team comes to your location. They have all the supplies including canvases paintbrushes cups tablecloth aprons everything you would expect if you had to go to an actual location. It is a totally mobile painting experience. That is so big for those of us that have to plan events for large group of coworkers. The communication was quite and friendly. Even when I felt like we were asking to much Tanasha was gracious. And she was great with the room! You can tell she take pride in her company and in her brand! This was all around a great experience for all!

Worst experience ever. Tanasha is very unprofessional and rude so please save your money ladies…read morebecause it's not worth it all. I had a better experience with Paint with a twist.

Then we ordered our meal. Our meal arrived steak was ok, au gratin potatoes and the Cream spinach was great!!!! Ordered an after dinner drink and bread pudding. After another long wait (20min) they arrived Drink was great. bread pudding was cold w the ice cream melted. I think the pudding would have been great if it wasn't sitting out somewhere cooling off. Ok who's the blame ???? Was the kitchen slow? Or the Waitress??? Who knows. We were there for 2hr 15 min. A little longer than usual. Now will we go back. Good question? Paying $$$ for dinner I expect better service yes I tipped 20% due to not know who was at fault. I will say the food was good just really slow.

Attended a yelp elite event with this group and it was so much fun! I'm not sure how the pricing…read morestructure works, or if wine and cheese is *normally* included, as these breakdowns weren't provided for us... however, it was a lot of fun either way! The experience included a topless server (male) for our party, an instructor and a nude model (also male). Something else that wasn't specified was if you had a female model if you would also have a female server? So not sure on that. I would guess she would be in a bikini or bra top as no nude photography is allowed and they walk around during the entirety of the event serving drinks and handing out pencils as needed. This would be a fun event to celebrate bachelorette parties (obviously), but you could also utilize their services for any type of gathering. I can so see a ladies night in with my friends doing this, but she also mentioned divorce parties (in which case can we have a group of male models I'll take 5 thank u), birthdays for the artsy friend, baby shower because clearly they've seen someone nude and nobody likes baby shower games (she didn't say that but I couldn't resist).... anyways, I digress. The only thing I wish I'd had more of was explanation. Some of them felt kind of rushed and I had no idea how to shade which was detrimental to my artistry (jk my hands are detrimental to my artistry more than anything else)... Would definitely do this again!

At our event, Bobby the server refilled drinks and took care of us during the drawing portion. The instructor and muse were fabulous at providing instruction and maintaining a sophisticated AND fun environment. It was fun to learn drawing techniques, but my skill was just alright! Each round went pretty quickly, so I wish I could have taken a bit more time to draw.

This was a fun little event that i found out about on Instagram. I think my favorite thing about…read morethis is that it was not overly crowded. I think they could have easily sold more tickets and packed people in but it would not have been enjoyable. I also liked that the price was super reasonable! Tickets were $25 each with free entry for kids. Entry comes with a free drink- alcoholic or not, stickers, and tattoos. They also gave a card with food/drink discounts to downtown restaurants and bars that can be used throughout the month of April. I will say they did a lot with a pretty small space. The fake flowers were actually beautiful. There were a few qr codes around for an interactive experience but i didnt really get it. I loved the swings and the bubble machines. Very cute. There were a couple benches and chairs throughout to sit in/take photos but they were pretty flimsy. Please get some sturdier stuff out there next time. I wish they had more food options. They had adult lunchables that were around $12 and not great. My cheese was suspect. I ate it bc i was hungry and there wasnt really other real food. Like they had popcorn and kale chips. Some kind of random snack things. The drinks were very sweet- alcoholic and nonalcoholic. The drinks were served very cute in the bottle and bag. There were others in normal cups as well. This place didnt have bathrooms, but you can access some across the street at the joule hotel. I wasnt sure if you could get back in after leaving, so make sure you use the bathroom first. Event ran 4/5-4/14 with a couple different entry options- we went to golden hour. It is sold out for this year. I want to add that originally i had tickets for Tuesday afternoon but they cancelled due to the forecasted weather and issued refunds immediately. For some reason my explanation email went to spam and the refund email went to my inbox. When i emailed them to see what was going on they were quick to respond and explain as well as to tell me to check my spam. For the original email- which i did and found it. They also opened some extra dates so we could still enjoy the experience. I thought this was excellent service. Overall i will say it was worth the $25 and was a fun experience- lots of photo ops but its definitely something i would do once and probably not again. Cool art installation

Mr. Curtis King, the founder of TBAAL, is personable and usually allows a Q&A after the performances. There are multiple stages at TBAAL - from the main stage - to the more intimate Clarence Muse Theater, however I don't think I've ever had a bad seat. I highly recommend a membership - it helps support TBAAL as well gives you extra little perks (discounted tickets, early entrance, etc). However note that there is NO FREE parking at TBAAL. There are paid parking lots across the street.
