Family Night

Learn about family-friendly painting events near you today!

You've got a whole list of family activities up your sleeve. You have a season pass to the zoo, and you're on a first-name basis with the lions, tigers, and bears (oh my!). You've spent countless rainy days at the bowling alley, and you've got the bowling shoe blisters to prove it. And, of course, you've spent your share of afternoons streaming cartoons on Netflix and playing games on the iPad together. Why not try something totally new at BestFriendz Sip & Paint? Sign up for an “ALL AGES” painting event on the calendar below to get the family party started! 

BestFriendz Sip & Paint painting sessions are fun art, not fine art. And you don’t need to be an artist to have fun! So, whether your kiddos are holding a paintbrush for the first time or grandma’s brushing up on her past hobby, there’s something for everyone to enjoy at our family painting events!

Plus, all of you will leave the studio with one-of-a-kind keepsakes created with a whole lot of love – and probably a whole lot of laughter, too! You might even leave the studio with a newfound passion. Win-win!

No shame here: there is a time and a place for screens. (Seriously, how do people fly on airplanes or survive sick days with young children without them?!) Even so, stepping away from technology and finding fun ways to unplug is a great way to bond as a family.

Our family painting classes feature step-by-step instruction designed for all ages and skill levels. What will you paint? There's plenty of masterpieces to choose from—from festive, seasonal pieces to portraits of your child's favorite animated friends. Get the whole gang together for a family paint night and spend some "non-screen" time creating memories in a relaxed, creative atmosphere. Everyone in your crew will have a blast unleashing their creativity and learning a brand new skill. 

Socialize and sip on your drink of choice while you follow along step-by-step with a local artist. We probably don't need to remind you to bring snacks, but we'll encourage you anyway! Finger food favorites like popcorn, string cheese, and seedless grapes are a great way to fuel your family's creative muscles.

At BestFriendz Sip & Paint, we want you to focus on what's important—having a blast with your family. Unlike those at-home art projects, there's no time for crying over spilled paint at our studio (and you don't have to clean up afterward)! Enjoy a family day with your favorite people, and let us take care of all the details—including messes and supplies!

Organizing a family outing that's fun for loved ones of all ages can be tricky! BestFriendz is your answer to this dilemma. From your littlest youngster to teenagers and beyond, everyone will love rolling up their sleeves and getting artsy. Even better? You'll be the family MVP for organizing this ultra-special family painting event. Your kids might not give you the credit you deserve for your party-planning expertise, but we will. Go, you!

Start building some everlasting family memories with a paint party at BestFriendz! Choose from our catalog of paintings, which you can find on your local studio's online calendar. Look for the "ALL AGES" painting events in the calendar above, and select one to book a fun-filled family painting event!

Group Mural

We divide you into groups where you work together to paint on large canvases with pre-drawn line art. 

Group Competition

Divided into groups, you collaborate with an artist to create the group’s own design. Everyone paints their respective group’s design on their own 16”×20” canvas. At the end, each group selects the best painting to be judged by the entire team, creating a little healthy competition. 

​Follow the Leader 

All guests follow along on their own canvas as our artist replicates an original piece selected in advance from the Tipsy Paint library.

Cherished family memories don't happen in front of a screen. They happen at BestFriendz Sip & Paint! Scroll down to find a family-friendly painting event near you. Trust us — you'll leave with far more than a painting! Visit a studio page near you to sign up!
