How a private paint party works

  1. Send a request.

    Tell Colleen the occasion, a date, and how many are painting. It takes about a minute, and she replies to plan the details.

  2. Paint along, one step at a time.

    Colleen shows each stage, then everyone paints it at their own pace. Chat, laugh, and enjoy the party.

  3. Everyone takes a painting home.

    Each painter leaves with their own finished canvas.

None of us have painted before. Is that okay?

Absolutely. No experience needed. Colleen breaks the painting into simple steps and shows each one before everyone tries it, so nobody is left guessing.

What’s included?

Canvases, paint, and brushes for every painter, plus step-by-step teaching from Colleen.

Where can the party be?

At your home, your workplace, or a venue you choose, in Steinbach and around southeast Manitoba. Tell Colleen where you’re thinking in your request.

How long does a party last?

Most paint parties run about two hours.

How do I pay?

After you send a request, Colleen emails you to confirm the details and share pricing and payment information.

How big can the group be?

Small groups and big halls alike. Tell Colleen how many are painting and she’ll plan around it.

Do you do kids’ parties?

Yes, private parties can be for kids, teens, or adults. Mention the ages in your request and Colleen will suggest a painting that suits the group.

What should we wear?

Something comfy that you don’t mind getting a little paint on. Acrylic paint doesn’t always wash out of clothes.

What if we need to change the date?
