FAQ
What time do I need to arrive for a class?
We recommend arriving 15 minutes prior to event time to snag your seat. You are welcome to come early if you want to grab a bite or get your sip started. Also, feel free to order food and drinks as you are painting.
Events start promptly and you will need a few minutes to get settled. Guests will not be allowed to enter the event more than 20 minutes late as we want to be mindful of others’ creative process. Please see our cancellation policy for further details.
Events last about 2 hours unless otherwise noted, and there is usually a break halfway through to get up, stretch and get a refill if needed!
Where are you located?
Events vary in setting as they are hosted at different Sonoma County venues. Event information is listed under each location found in our “Events” page.
What do I wear?
We suggest wearing something comfortable that you wouldn’t mind getting paint on. We do provide aprons. Also, please take note of OUTDOOR events in which you may want the occasional hat and sun screen 🙂
If I come with a friend or a group, can we all sit together? What IF I Prefer Sitting UP FRONT, OR PREFER A SEAT NEAR THE BACK?
We encourage arriving to the event early in order to save the seats that you (or your group) will prefer.
