Question 1

Is And Straight on till Morning good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes — And Straight on till Morning is one of our most approachable paintings. Absolute first-timers finish this one looking great. Maia walks you through every step, and the whole group moves together so nobody falls behind. 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. Maia is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Monaghan's Sports Pub & Grill - Oakville, 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

Is this a good date night in Oakville?

Accepted Answer

And Straight on till Morning is one of our most popular date night paintings in Oakville. You each paint your own canvas — same painting, different results — which always makes for a fun comparison at the end of the night. The painting has a calm, intimate quality — good for a relaxed evening.

Question 4

What's Maia like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Maia is a real local artist based in Oakville — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire.

Question 5

What's Monaghan's Sports Pub & Grill - Oakville like?

Accepted Answer

Monaghan's Sports Pub & Grill - Oakville is a local venue in Oakville — 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 6

Is And Straight on till Morning a seasonal painting?

Accepted Answer

And Straight on till Morning is a summer painting — bright, warm tones that match the season perfectly.

Question 7

Whatever happened to Yaymaker?

Accepted Answer

More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you used to attend Yaymaker events in Oakville, you're in the right place. Welcome back.

Question 8

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Your ticket to And Straight on till Morning 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 Maia. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Monaghan's Sports Pub & Grill - Oakville — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 9

How long is And Straight on till Morning?

Accepted Answer

Monaghan's Sports Pub & Grill - Oakville's event starts at 4:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 3:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Maia starts the painting.
