Please don’t drink the paint water.

I’m going to drink the paint water.

That’s not a question. Don’t drink the paint water. I’m going to go scream into a pillow now, thank you kindly.

Yeah but, can I NOT drink the paint water?

Listen, you can do whatever you set your mind to, like having one heck of a good time at one of our events, or making something you never thought you could make. We all have the capacity to do great things for ourselves to better ourselves. Please don’t subjugate yourself to drinking the paint water

I drank the paint water and it tasted really bad. Can I have a refund?

Has it been up to 1 day before your event? We will refund tickets up to 1 day before our event starts. How did you get the paint water before your event anyways? Or are you at your event right now? If that’s the case, you broke the first two rules of Pub N Paint. Do not pass GO. Do not collect $200.

Are tips expected or can we just ignore this?

Expected? Yes. Please don’t ignore this, we provide a service ensuring everyone leaves feeling happy. We are artists and our job is to bring you a positive, creative experience. We appreciate your respect and recognition of our work; your gratitude shows that we succeeded in our goal.

Do I need painting experience?

Not at all, this event is beginner-friendly, and we’ll guide you step-by-step.

Do I get to take my painting home with me?

Yes of course! Please take your masterpiece home with you, we have plenty of our own. Seriously. We have a storage unit full of our duplicate paintings we use to teach our classes. You know what we do with them though? During special fundraisers, we sell them by donations given to a local charity!

I’m worried about getting paint on my clothes, will it come off?

We supply you with an apron that has withstood the test of many a Pub N Paint spill, and it does a darn good job at protecting your clothes. That said, we use acrylic paint which has a habit of drying and forming a solid plastic. Use cold water to pull out the wet stuff, and donate it if it dries.

Is the venue accessible?

Yes, GRETA is wheelchair accessible. If you have specific accessibility requirements, please contact us before the event so we can help accommodate you.

Will I be seated with my friend but also by a window? I like my friend but they smell bad.

We do our best to make appropriate accommodations for all of our attendees the day of, but if you have specific needs please email us beforehand and we will ensure the right space for you.
