‘Tis the Season for Paint Nights!

Art From The Heart is a paint night workshop and experience intended to inspire and connect.

Come prepared to step outside of your comfort zone and get creative whether you’re attending with friends, a loved one or taking yourself out on a date! You’ll learn something new, have a good time and leave with a work of art you created all by yourself! All levels are welcome! Beginners encouraged.

Our intention is focused on creating a one of a kind experience instead of being the perfect artist. The paint night will run up to 2 hours in length, while you are guided through a 16×20” canvas painting. Dress to make a mess!
