Question 1

Is Paris in My Dreams good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Paris in My Dreams is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Elizabeth paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Elizabeth will help you turn any mistake into something intentional. 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. Elizabeth is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Coral Tree Cafe Encino, 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 Encino?

Accepted Answer

Paris in My Dreams is one of our most popular date night paintings in Encino. You each paint your own canvas — same painting, different results — which always makes for a fun comparison at the end of the night.

Question 4

What's Elizabeth like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Elizabeth is a real local artist based in Encino — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire.

Question 5

What's Coral Tree Cafe Encino like?

Accepted Answer

Coral Tree Cafe Encino is a local venue in Encino — 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 Paris in My Dreams a seasonal painting?

Accepted Answer

Paris in My Dreams is a spring painting — a fresh seasonal pick that captures the energy of the season.

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

Question 8

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Paris in My Dreams 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 Elizabeth. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Coral Tree Cafe Encino — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 9

How long is Paris in My Dreams?

Accepted Answer

Coral Tree Cafe Encino's doors open at 8:00 AM, the 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 Elizabeth 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.
