Yes. Summer Cacti 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 Fox and Fiddle - Danforth, 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 — Summer Cacti is a Paint Nite favourite for girls nights in Toronto. Everyone paints their own canvas, so there's always something to laugh about at the end. If you're planning a bachelorette party or a larger group, private events of 10+ get reserved seating and a custom experience.

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.'

Fox and Fiddle - Danforth 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.

Summer Cacti is a summer painting — bright, warm tones that match the season perfectly.

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 Summer Cacti 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 Fox and Fiddle - Danforth — 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.
