As a mixed media artist, I live and breath for all things creative. With a specialization in acrylic painting, I have made it my mission to share my passion for art with all of you.
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Desert Delight is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — She breaks every step down clearly. Most of our guests have never picked up a brush before, and they leave with something they're genuinely proud of. Worth knowing: Paint Nite events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.
A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. She is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at The Cat N' Fiddle, a real local spot, not a studio. Paint Nite invented this format in 2012 and has sold more than 10 million tickets. The trade-off is honest: lighting varies, it can get loud, and the person at the next easel is a stranger. That's the point. It's more of a night out than a class.
Yes — Desert Delight is a Paint Nite favourite for girls nights in Calgary. Everyone paints their own canvas, so there's always something to laugh about at the end. If you're planning a bachelorette party or a larger group, private events of 10+ get reserved seating and a custom experience.
She is a real local artist based in Calgary — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. In Calgary, 27 out of 39 Paint Nite guests rated their instructor as amazing. Susan T. said: 'It is so much fun. She Buy is an excellent instructor and so much fun. Keep it up. Thank you.'
The Cat N' Fiddle is a local venue in Calgary — a real local spot, not a dedicated painting studio. Paint Nite events happen at places like this by design — venues with character, regulars, and a bar. It can get lively. That's what makes it a night out rather than a class.
Yes — we have 84 upcoming events in Calgary this month. You can view them here.
Desert Delight is a spring painting — a fresh seasonal pick that captures the energy of the season.
Yaymaker is Paint Nite. We brought both brands together under the Paint Nite name — same artists, same events, same format we invented in 2012. More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you used to attend Yaymaker events in Calgary, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Desert Delight includes the canvas, all the paint you'll need, the use of brushes and an apron during the event, and step-by-step instruction from She. Drinks and food are ordered separately from The Cat N' Fiddle — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
This event runs approximately 2 hours. Doors open at 2:00 PM — we recommend arriving 15 minutes early to get settled and order your first drink before She starts the painting.
You can reschedule your ticket to any other Paint Nite event up to 24 hours before this one starts. After that, tickets are locked — no refunds or changes. If Paint Nite cancels this event for any reason, you'll receive a full automatic refund.
