We had no expectations for the place since we've never been any place similar. Tipsy Paintbrush is a BYOB art studio that offers weekly classes focusing on various pictures and is available for private parties. There's also a rotating list of artists that teach the classes and offer painting techniques. On the day we attended, our class was full and picture of the night was sunflowers. It's a bright but small studio space. Parking is to be found on the street (namely Charles street which is located behind the studio) since the place only has four to five spaces to its name. There are rows of tables and stools with canvasses that have a sketch of the picture already drawn out. Classes are two hours. As for BYOB, you can bring bottles of wine/beer/spiked cider, etc that can be either be kept at your station or at the back to be shared with the rest of the class. Also, you can bring in snacks (various dips/salsas/crackers/popcorn/cheeses/etc). There are plastic cups and wine glasses available should you not bring any of your own (we brought in our own glasses). The only gripe I have is that the personal station space is pretty tight. In between having space for the canvas, paint, water glass, wine glass/beer bottle, and possible snack, there's not much room to put everything. Once class begins, the instructor will walk you through the science of color mixing and different techniques to bring the painting to life. The most important thing to remember is to have fun. It's just paint! Don't go in with such a critical view of how your work comes out. Our instructor of the night was Gina and she was great. She was really patient and offered some good painting tips! I HIGHLY recommend the Tipsy Paintbrush for a fun night out!

On November 15, I arrived on time for a class at The Tipsy Paintbrush. The class was scheduled for…read more7:00-9:00. The two instructors chose to delay starting the class untill all participants arrived. The class was scheduled to last two hours. After thirty minutes (at 7:30), the class had STILL not started. That is one fourth of the scheduled class time wasted because of late participants. I had other plans after nine o' clock, so I had to leave without painting, A few people should not be allowed to waste the time of people who show up on time. Very bad policy! I was an art teacher for 25 years, and if people were late for class, I would help them catch up....NOT hold up instruction for the majority. I lost my money....not going back! I agree with another reviewer that too many participants were scheduled so the space was simply too tight.

I was babysitting/"hanging out" with my 7-year-old nephew for the day and needed to find somewhere that would excite yet tire him out for a few hours. The place looks very unassuming upon pulling into the parking lot but once you enter, it's bright lights, colors, and games for days. In order to play the games, you have to buy cards, wristbands, etc at the front desk beforehand. Thankfully, we arrived right when it opened, so we walked right up and purchased the card for "bowling" and wristband for the bounce houses. The bowling (1 game = $3) set up does not include your typical bowling balls. They're smaller and much heavier. He was not the biggest fan of it but he L-O-V-E-D the bounce houses. There's four or five inflatable houses with various levels of difficulty and he went through all of them multiple times. The price for the bounce houses was $9.95 and allows your child to play ALL day. Best $10 I spent the entire day. The staff I encountered was very friendly and the facilities appeared very clean and well taken care of. Whenever I have children under my watch, I will be taking them here!

It's a small theater, and the crowd is encouraged to participate by throwing out topics or may even be asked to come up on stage and assist with a game (don't worry - they ask for volunteers). Shows typically last around 90 minutes and are BYOB, so it's a great bang for your buck! They also have drinks available for purchase right before you walk in to take your seat. By attending, you're supporting local, live theater, which is a great thing to do! Also, if you're interested in learning how to do improv and potentially performing someday, they offer improv classes for all levels.

Since my son lives in Richmond VA they were going to have to space out some lessons over the next couple of months. For me and my wife, we decided to sign-up for a few for more lessons, since we live here in Charlotte, and the first experience was so good. We had taken some previous lessons when we lived in Florida that we quickly dropped. Our instructor Alyona was great at getting us comfortable over the first set of lessons we took as a couple. That was in early December, and now we are both taking couple lessons and single lessons, because we are having a lot of fun. Alyona and her partner Jake are great coaches for me and my wife, because as both professional dancers they know we are there to learn and just have fun, not looking to go pro. The facility is very clean and the entire staff is very friendly. I would recommend this dance studio to anyone who needs lessons or just wants to experience having some fun from a group of folks who love what they are doing. Five Stars for sure
