As a completely self-taught artist, I have hosted events for Paint Nite (Yaymaker) since '15 in and around Phoenix, AZ - It is my hope that you all fall in love with Paint Nite as I once did, unleash that inner artist, and let the paint do the rest! "This is not something you should labor over or worry about. Let go, have fun with it! If painting does nothing else, it should make you happy" -Bob Ross Cheers! - Maci
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Swing into Summer is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Maci 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. Maci is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Dave & Buster's Phoenix, 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.
Swing into Summer is one of our most popular date night paintings in PHOENIX. 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.
Maci is a real local artist based in PHOENIX — 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. Stacey G. said: 'Maci did an excellent job walking us thru the painting with humor and simple instructions. It was a fun night!'
Dave & Buster's Phoenix is a local venue in PHOENIX — 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 15 upcoming events in PHOENIX this month. You can view them here.
Swing into Summer 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 PHOENIX, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Swing into Summer 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 Maci. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Dave & Buster's Phoenix — 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 Maci 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.
