Question 1

Is Jewel of Christmas good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Jewel of Christmas is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Honor 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.

Question 2

How is Paint Nite different from a painting class?

Accepted Answer

A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Honor is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at CW Coop's Barrie, 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.

Question 3

What's Honor like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Honor is a real local artist based in Barrie — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. In Barrie, 11 out of 15 Paint Nite guests rated their instructor as amazing. Natalie D. said: 'We had an awesome instructor and a fun time laughing! The paintings turned out fantastic'

Question 4

What's CW Coop's Barrie like?

Accepted Answer

CW Coop's Barrie is a local venue in Barrie — 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.

Question 5

Are there more Paint Nite events in Barrie?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we have 21 upcoming events in Barrie this month.

Question 6

Is Jewel of Christmas a seasonal painting?

Accepted Answer

Jewel of Christmas is a winter painting — cozy seasonal vibes for a great night out.

Question 7

Whatever happened to Yaymaker?

Accepted Answer

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 Barrie, you're in the right place. Welcome back.

Question 8

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Jewel of Christmas 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 Honor. Drinks and food are ordered separately from CW Coop's Barrie — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 9

How long is Jewel of Christmas?

Accepted Answer

CW Coop's Barrie's doors open at 2:00 PM, the event starts at 7:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 6:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Honor starts the painting.

Question 10

What's the cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

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.
