Paint parties sound fun, but what if I'm not artsy or creative?

No worries, that's exactly why our events and parties are led by our art instructors. Your group will be guided step by step and your art instructor will recreate the painting live right along with your group. Most of our guests have little to no art experience and that's what makes it fun.

I'm artsy, but my friend/date...not so much. How can I assure them that they will have fun?

Our mission is to create a fun, upscale, entertaining experience. Our environment is judgment-free, stress-free and encouraging. We invite you to come as you are with art skills or without. No matter the age, we want our guests to experience something unique, fun and far from the ordinary paint party.

Do I have to paint what the Instructor paints? Or can I just do "my own thing?"

It's your painting, you can absolutely go rogue if you'd like! Most of our guests follow along with the instructor. Occasionally guests will change a background color or the style of a flower. But we have had guests do something totally and completely different. Following along is lots of fun but whatever you feel inspired to create is totally up to you! We want you to tap into your ARTsy side.

I attended an event at ABF that I think would make an awesome private party at my location. Can that happen?

Absolutely! Any theme used for our special events can be selected as a theme for your private event.
