    Paint drying area

    Our class leader Louis was a blast and entertainment, and kept us going and taught us a lot about painting and made it so much fun! He clearly loves his job is such a professional and very talented at teaching others how to paint while making it super fun. We had music all through the class, played games, and laughed about our work!

    Was super fun class with instructor Louis! Had a multiple trivias going on throughout the class.

    This was a fun way to spend some time with the family. They had music trivia throughout the class which was a fun surprise. I only didn't give 5 stars because I don't think I'd be back personally.

    This was such a fun experience . The staff was absolutely outstanding! Especially Ms. John Paul who help my painting really come alive! I have to come back a few more times to really get the hang of it! But this was so much fun!! Thank you!!!

    John Paul was so helpful, extremely patient with all of us in the class. I will def be returning to this location. The atmosphere is pleasant and warming. Love the vibes. Also not to mention Elle also is amazing, very helpful and sweet.

    Our group had a blast! John Paul made it so fun! Definitely recommend the Heights location!

    My girlfriend and I found this place a while ago for date night. Jean-Paul has made every experience awesome. Besides being an amazing painter and teacher, his classes are funny, entertaining, and overall just a good time. Because of his great work we've made this a monthly date night, and always look for when Jean-Paul is teaching. Great work! See you soon.

    Great experience with Louis today ! 100% recommended for birthday fun activities ! We were 5 girlfriends we had a tons of fun !

    Having been to several of the different painting venues this one was by far the funnest. It makes a huge difference when the staff makes it fun definitely helps to keep it from becoming to a task. Its the same service provided at the other locations but staff and location make a difference. I will drive out of my way to come back here. Fun date event for sure - I would highly recommend coming here on a date or with a group of friends.

    Private room for our group party
    Diana S.

    I've been to this location twice now for painting classes and couldn't be happier! I came here recently for a work party and we were able to secure the private room since we had a small group. We had a group of 16 girls and were easily able to book the room a few weeks in advance for a Saturday afternoon class. There is a free, private parking lot in front of the store with plenty of spaces. This place is BYOB so feel free to bring as many bottles of wine as you like! A large bucket of ice is provided if you want your wine chilled and they also provide wine glasses and bottle openers. You can also bring your own food to eat- I suggest finger foods as it's easier to eat something quick and small while painting. They also provide you with aprons to protect your clothes from being painted on. TIP- don't wear anything super expensive or special to you- there's a huge risk of getting paint on yourself and we are told it will NOT wash out of clothing. BUT if you happen to get it on your hands or skin (which you WILL)- it will definitely wash out (after a few hand washings). PWAT has thousands of paintings to choose from and if you book a private group party, they allow you to choose whichever painting you want (they email you the link for private group parties). Otherwise, they have a calendar online that shows you which paintings they will be doing each day. Booking is very quick and easy to do online as well. The instructor we had for our group painting was Stacy and she was awesome! So engaging and fun, she made the class extremely entertaining. There were contests and music blasting- the 2 hours I was there flew by extremely quickly. The instructor gives you step by step instructions on how to paint your masterpiece so listen closely!! Stacy went super fast with her instructions so be sure to keep up or speak up if you're behind. My painting didn't turn out too bad (I am super NOT artistic and had low hopes for myself) so I really can't complain. This is definitely a fun night for a group outing or even for date night! Don't be scared or intimidated- even if you're a super UN-artistic, non-creative person like me you will still have a good time, I guarantee it!!

    What a fun place to go I went with a friend for a nice girls night!…read more We were tired of eating out all the time and this time I wanted to get out of the house and try something new. This place was certainly the place to do that, we did ax throwing, which I had done before, but we also got to do knife throwing and archery. Knife throwing is very difficult (do not be deceived by how each they make it look) and archery is as well, but we did enough axe throwing that we became very proficient at it. They actually also spend their time to show you each activity. There are two people there working, or at least there were when we were there that night, one man in the bar and Food and the other introducing you to each activity. They spent quite a bit of time making sure you know what to do the safety routines, and how to improve your skill. I would definitely be back. The food is also really good and they have a bar. It's just a really nice laid-back spot to get a little arm work in, try something new and eat good food. I highly recommend!

Called the number, spoke to someone, saw a worker doing a quick orientation for another group. Walked over and let him know I had a 7:30 pm reservation (it was 7:40 pm at this point). He came over got us checked in, let me know what area to go to, we went there, he went back to the bar and started making drinks for other customers. We were waiting for the quick orientation and axes. It was him only as the only visible worker. Then a lady who I presumably talked on the phone with came out. We waited 5 mins so now it was 7:45 pm. (Unfortunately we have 2 things planned back to back so I realized I would not be able to stay for my 1 hr reservation. So I walked over and told the two workers I get it, you are understaffed but I need a refund due to not being able to have enough time to throw for hr whole hour due to back to back activities and having been waiting so long. She apologized and refunded me. Honestly I don't blame the workers I more so blame management. Why would you have only two people running the show. It's very unfortunate because that would have been my first time going there, but the experience is ruined and I likely will not be going back and would not recommend. They did however refund me.

While it was great to see some familiar faces, it was even better to meet some new faces. We joined forces as team "Strawberry Scarlett" and never looked back! It was almost as if we knew each for the longest of times and we all had just met tonight. If anyone is looking for team building, I'd definitely recommend this place. You work together as a team and come up with answers to questions that you think you have it all together, news flash, who did y'all poll for some of these answers. Lol. It's all good because Strawberry Scarlett stayed on top till the very end. Yes there is some salt in that statement. It was a fantastic event overall. I am thinking the manager was having a little bit of scare towards the beginning and during team assignments (hence not 5 stars). I get it, it's overwhelming expecting so many people. Hopefully in the end she was able to relax because everything was great. KEKE and Savannah (I hope I have her bae right) made up for some of that experience. They kept us hype during game time Saint Arnold was there along with J. Lohr wines and whithaven for our libations. But let's pause and talk about that Knead Me Bakery lemon scone. I love any and everything lemon and they had it right on spot. We also were served some Chuys, tap the mic, jalapeño dip. Yum. Along with Zalat Pizza. Thank you Ms. Britt. Great idea as always. And you blew it out the park showcasing multiple businesses just a short walk away. You're the best! Job well done for sure.

Maybe that's just me being overly competitive but the rules are the rules lol! Overall it was a fun experience. I think going with a nice size group of friends, family, coworkers, etc. might make it a little better but date night also makes for a good time. They do have light snacks and beverages for purchase (standard venue pricing). The bathroom seemed cleaned and well maintained. And the entire staff was pleasant and seemed to enjoy what they do! So yes I would go again, I had a great time!

    I did a rug tufting workshop here with some friends and enjoyed a really unique and fun experience!…read moreOur experience was about 4 hours in total. Price varies based on how big you want your rug to be (20"x20" or 30x30") and if you make a rug on your own or share one with a buddy. Overall I found the price very fair for the experience that I had. I'm pretty clumsy but was able to tuft my rug with ease because of how beginner friendly the class is and how awesome our teacher, Ashley, was. I love the fact that you can create your own design even as a beginner. Upon registering for the class, you have to submit three different designs, and from there, the instructors will pick the design they think is most appropriate for your level. If there are any issues with the design, they'll call you to work something out, which shows great customer service. After you finish your rug, the studio keeps it for 2 weeks to shave it down and fix it up into a proper rug, and you'll need to pick it up afterwards. It's kind of confusing to find the studio, but your confirmation email explains the instructions. The workshop allowed you to BYOB, which was a fun cherry on top to a good experience. I would totally do this again and recommend this to anyone looking for a unique event for a date night or special occasion.

Our instructor, Ashley, was amazing! Super patient and it was easy to follow along. You submit 3 designs, and 1 gets approved for the custom rug (already drawn and set up at your station). Rug tufting took a few hours. Felt like a mini workout; be sure to stretch your hands/wrists/arms LOL. Rug pick-up usually takes a couple of weeks. Highly recommend booking a workshop with a group of friends! The experience was so much fun.
