Join artist Karina Veveris for a lively night out painting "Sleepy Koala." This beginner-friendly event is all about fun, not fine art. You'll have all supplies included, so all you need to do is show up and enjoy the company of friends while you bring this playful creature to life on your canvas. No pressure, just a great time out in the heart of Toronto. Mossop's Social House is the perfect spot for this Toronto paint night, located at 56 Yonge Street, right in the bustling heart of the city. After painting, you can explore nearby attractions or grab a bite at one of the many restaurants around. This is one of the top things to do in Toronto, especially if you're looking for unique Toronto date night ideas. If you’re not able to join us in person, we offer virtual options that allow you to paint from the comfort of your home. You can pause and rewind as needed, making it even easier to keep up with the fun. Private events are available for groups of 10 or more, making this a great choice for birthdays or team-building outings. If you bring along three or more friends, you can save 15% on your tickets. Plus, if your plans change, enjoy the peace of mind with our free cancellation policy up to 24 hours before the event. Grab your tickets now and get ready for a night filled with laughter, creativity, and maybe even a little mischief. Don't miss out on this fun experience!

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Sleepy Koala is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Karina 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. Karina is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Mossop's Social House, 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 — Sleepy Koala is one of our family-friendly paintings. All ages are welcome at this event. We recommend ages 5 and up for independent painting, though younger kids can share a canvas with an adult.
Karina is a real local artist based in Toronto — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 9 out of 10 guests who've painted with Karina say the instruction was amazing. Kelly C. said: 'Instructor was really positive and helpful. She gave clear instructions and offered help when needed.'
Mossop's Social House is a local venue in Toronto — 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 43 upcoming events in Toronto this month. You can view them here.
Sleepy Koala 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 Toronto , you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Sleepy Koala 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 Karina . Drinks and food are ordered separately from Mossop's Social House — 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 Karina 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.
