what’s a
Paint Nite?
Paint Nite is a paint party like no other, so throw away all your previous notions of painting classes. Ours are in the likes of restaurants and bars. Plus, we do virtual paint parties!
The emphasis is on coming together and having fun—not becoming the next Picasso. But don’t be surprised if you pick up some tricks along the way. Your host will take you step-by-step through your painting while you sip and eat to your heart’s content!
Beats a raffle, bake sale, or car wash any day, right?

We’ll PayPal donations to the event organizer to forward
to the cause/non-profit organization, so make sure you
send us the corresponding email. Yaymaker does not
send money directly to your foundation/cause.
Most people sell tickets for $5-10 over our ticket price,
but that choice is up to you. Just keep in mind that the
difference between your ticket price and ours becomes
the donation.
For example, if you sell tickets to your painting event
for $50 (excluding taxes), each ticket will donate $11.
