Cherry blossoms have this quality where they feel both delicate and kind of overwhelming all at once — soft pink petals set against cool blues and greens, the whole thing quietly majestic. That's what we're building together on Saturday at Rec Room WEM, and I genuinely love teaching this one because it rewards you at every stage. I've been doing this a long time — over 800 events — so no experience needed; I'll meet you where you are and we'll build it up together. The Rec Room is a great backdrop for a night like this, and by the end you'll have something that actually looks like a painting worth keeping.

I'm an experienced artist and have hosted paint parties for both adults and families. I create a fun, interactive atmosphere where we can talk about painting, feelings, and your feelings about your painting. Interested in a corporate event or private party?

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Magic of the Cherry Blossom is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Glen paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Glen will help you turn any mistake into something intentional. 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. Glen is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Rec Room WEM, 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.
Glen is a real local artist based in Edmonton — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 14 out of 14 guests who've painted with Glen say the instruction was amazing. Val M. said: 'Great location with spacious room between each painter at the table, supplies provided was good quality, instructor, Glen was organized, friendly and very knowledgeable. The instructions were easily...'
Rec Room WEM is a local venue in Edmonton — 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 127 upcoming events in Edmonton this month. You can view them here.
Magic of the Cherry Blossom 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 Edmonton, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Magic of the Cherry Blossom 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 Glen. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Rec Room WEM — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Rec Room WEM's doors open at 4:00 PM, the event starts at 6:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 5:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Glen 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.
