Question 1

Is Love to the Moon good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Love to the Moon is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Alyssa 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. Alyssa is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at A. Virtual Newburgh, 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 good for a girls night or bachelorette party in Newburgh?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Love to the Moon is a Paint Nite favourite for girls nights in Newburgh. 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.

Question 4

What's Alyssa like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Alyssa is a real local artist based in Newburgh — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. Paint Nite artists complete our certification program before their first event. Across all Paint Nite events, 93% of guests say their instructor was amazing. Emma-Lynn C. said: 'Host was relaxed and set a good tone and pace for the event.'

Question 5

What's A. Virtual Newburgh like?

Accepted Answer

A. Virtual Newburgh is a local venue in Newburgh — 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

Are there more Paint Nite events in Newburgh?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we have 2 upcoming events in Newburgh this month.

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

Question 8

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Love to the Moon 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 Alyssa. Drinks and food are ordered separately from A. Virtual Newburgh — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 9

How long is Love to the Moon?

Accepted Answer

A. Virtual Newburgh's 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 Alyssa 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.
