How To Throw an Amazing Group Paint Party

Paint parties have increased in popularity recently for many reasons. They are an easy, creative way to gather groups of all sizes and ages, whether you meet in person or over zoom. Paint parties can also help take the stress out of party planning from corporate team bonding to a birthday!

At Canvas n Cup, we have a trendy and relaxing studio that creates the perfect environment for you and your guests to unwind and enjoy, whether you join us over zoom or in person. 

Why throw a paint party?

• They are a great way to gather with people who are close by or stay connected with those who are geographically dispersed virtually or both (hybrid)
• Have a personalized art experience with an instructor who can guide your private event within a small group setting and will help you create a piece of art you are proud of
• Leave the logistics up to us! Take the stress out of planning your own party or event- all you have to do is show up and paint
• Shake up your go - to weekend plans and unleash your inner artist through something new
• Give your kids and their friends or schoolmates a break from their routines and screen time and give them a canvas and paintbrush instead!
  

What kind of occasions make a good paint party?

If you can dream it, you can organize a paint party around it! Not only can you get creative with the type of event you book for a paint party - but these parties create lasting memories and homemade artwork that commemorate your paint night long after it's over. 

To take the guesswork out of it - here are some fun ideas for events anyone can use: 

Corporate Events - Companies like Google, Facebook, Instagram, Microsoft and more have utilized paint parties as a way to connect their teams over a paint party. It is a great way to host a team bonding experience that goes beyond work environment.

Birthday Parties or School Field Trips - Our instructors are great with painters of any age and we have many kid-friendly options in our gallery to engage painters of all skill levels. We also offer plenty of after school availability during the week for a kid’s night out. 

Sip and Paint - Nothing pairs better with painting and relaxation than your favorite drink and some friends. Canvas n Cup offers a variety of local Wine and Beer selections to patrons ages 21+ with a valid ID. For private parties or virtual parties, you are more than welcome to bring in any food or non-alcoholic beverages.

Holiday Themes - Book a paint party over a long weekend or before any holiday for a creative way to relax. Paint the holiday theme - like an American Flag for Memorial Day or a Pumpkin patch for Halloween.

Bachelorette Party - Gather your girls and the bride, some champagne and a good time! A girls night paint party is the best excuse for any occasion.

Date Night & Anniversary Celebrations - Want to spice up date night or make a memory on an anniversary and try something new? Get your significant other to paint you a new masterpiece to hang up at home. Whether it's just the happy couple or a group of family and friends celebrating together, in-person paint nights are a great date idea.

Fundraisers - Paint for a good cause! Host your next fundraiser through a paint party. Running the Boston Marathon or hosting an annual fundraiser? Canvas n Cup will donate 20% of events proceedings to your organization of choice. 

Church group outings - A wholesome way to bond with your church friends over art! 

Paint your pet night - Honor your best furry friend by painting his portrait. 

For private parties, we recommend a minimum group size of 6 and for Corporate Events and Fundraisers, we ask you to have a group size starting at 15.
