Alice Cassel is hosting a Paint Nite where you'll create your own "Bright Northern Night." It's a fun, laid-back evening of painting and socializing. All supplies are included, so just show up and have a blast. No experience needed, just bring your friends and your favorite drink! Get ready to paint a stunning scene featuring a forest, a tranquil lake, and a sky full of stars in vibrant blues, greens, and purples. Alice Cassel, our five-star artist with rave reviews, will guide you through the process. You'll be working on a 16" x 20" canvas, and all materials are provided. The event lasts about two hours, and it's open to those of legal drinking age, so you can sip and paint to your heart's content. Join us at Mountain Mike's Pizza, an excellent spot located at 4501 Montgomery Drive in Santa Rosa, CA. Not only will you be enjoying a unique Santa Rosa paint night, but you're also in a great neighborhood with plenty of things to do in Santa Rosa. Grab a bite before or after your event, and make it a full night out. Whether you're looking for Santa Rosa date night ideas or just a fun evening with friends, this is the perfect way to spend your night. Interested in a private event? We can accommodate groups of 10 or more. Plus, if you bring three or more friends, you save 15%. Remember, you can cancel for free up to 24 hours in advance. So what are you waiting for?

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Bright Northern Night is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Alice 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. Alice is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Mountain Mike's Pizza, 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.
Alice is a real local artist based in Santa Rosa — 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. Terri G. said: 'Alice Cassel was fabulous she was very fun and was a great teacher. I had a lot of fun. Alice let us take the time to do our best.'
Mountain Mike's Pizza is a local venue in Santa Rosa — 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 30 upcoming events in Santa Rosa this month. You can view them here.
Bright Northern Night is a winter painting — cozy seasonal vibes for a great night out.
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 Santa Rosa, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Bright Northern Night 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 Alice. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Mountain Mike's Pizza — 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 Alice 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.
