Question 1

Is Aruba good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Aruba is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Suzannah 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. Suzannah is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Mongolian Village Grill West , 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 Suzannah like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Suzannah is a real local artist based in Nepean — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 11 out of 13 guests who've painted with Suzannah say the instruction was amazing. Kimya K. said: 'Suzanna was lovely and we had a great time painting our birch trees!'

Question 4

What's Mongolian Village Grill West  like?

Accepted Answer

Mongolian Village Grill West  is a local venue in Nepean — 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 Nepean?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we have 55 upcoming events in Nepean this month.

Question 6

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

Question 7

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Aruba 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 Suzannah. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Mongolian Village Grill West  — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 8

How long is Aruba?

Accepted Answer

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 Suzannah starts the painting.

Question 9

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.
