First of all, the property is absolutely beautiful and it is so much better than being cooped up indoors in some paint studio. You feel like you're on a retreat. Second of all, the instructions were very specific and we were very well guided throughout the process. I have two left hands - and art is definitely not my forte. However, even for someone like me- the painting was a success! Last of all, the food was phenomenal. I love authentic Indian food- and the food was very delicious and added a wonderful touch to the entire experience. I HIGHLY recommend coming here for a GNO, team building, or just to enjoy with friends. I am excited to bring my kids here for a party some day.

Wow! What an unforgettable experience at Paint and Picnic! I…read morewas planning my daughter's 17th birthday and originally thought of doing a picnic with a "paint with me" activity. While searching for vendors, I came across Paint and Picnic and I'm so glad I did! The website was easy to navigate, and everything was clearly laid out. I reached out to the owner, Sophia, and she responded quickly and answered all my questions. Booking was super easy, and once it was confirmed, everything was handled--setup, food, decor, and paint supplies! The venue is absolutely beautiful--relaxing, cozy, and perfect for pictures. Sophia works with a small local vendor in Berkeley for food, and each sandwich was customized to our guests' needs. I love that she supports small businesses! The paint session was fun and easy to follow, and all the girls loved it. Sophia is kind, professional, and incredibly accommodating. I didn't have to stress about a thing--just showed up and enjoyed the day. Highly recommend Paint and Picnic if you're looking for something unique, stress-free, and beautiful. You won't regret it!

Our instructor Will was very helpful, super charismatic & outgoing personality! Our bartender Laney was amazing, shout out to her for all the drinks! The mini bar menu has many options you will definitely find something up your ally. You can drink as much as you want or not drink at all. You are also welcomed to bring snacks with you to eat if needed. My cousins & I really enjoyed the step by step paint and sip night. Our instructor Will moved at a great pace really making sure his students could follow along, very beginner friendly. We definitely will be coming back for other classes they offer they are super affordable! This experience is one for the books, whether that be for a girls night out, a romantic date, a self care day for yourself, Pinot's Palette is has many different classes to offer! Check them out!

There is no way that she is running this place with any profit. It's clearly a labor of love for her! We had a fantastic experience and were grateful that Helen was so accommodating.

I went to the PETals and Pumpkins event by Paint Your Pet Events! It's a little different from…read morepainting but still very cute and customized to be a silhouette of your pet on the pumpkin! Buying tickets online was very easy and the instructions were clear. Send a side view photo of your pet to a certain email address or use the upload link on the website. We got one drink ticket per person and were able to order from the brewery. It was a super fun class! Highly recommend if they offer it again next year. They provide everything you need and lots of variety/options from the color tissue paper for the silhouette to the pressed flowers. Tickets for the class were around $60 per person. But if you consider the time and materials to set up for the project and the drinks it's not a bad value at all. The event started at 5:30pm and officially ended at 8pm. So there's plenty of time. Heather gave great guidance/instructions and we never felt rushed. We will likely be ordering DIY kits from Paint Your Pet Events. They sent a 20% off promo code after attending the event! Super fun event and we got something that we can keep for more than the season!

The pet painting process is incredibly fun and approachable. They literally do all the work for you! You just show up, grab a drink, and spend the next couple of hours relaxing and painting your furry friend. The pre-sketched canvases and step-by-step guidance make it so easy, and the finished product turns out great- it's truly something special to take home. Heather is there every step of the way to help if you have any questions and you can feel the joy and energy in the room. Everyone is having a blast! As a small business owner, I also want to shout out how amazing Heather is to work with- she's responsive, friendly, patient, and just an all-around joy to collaborate with. If you're thinking about attending or hosting a Paint Your Pet event, do it! You won't regret it. 10/10 highly recommend!
