Hello, and welcome to my host page! I host various paint nights throughout Central and Eastern Massachusetts. If you are ever visiting the state, feel free to visit my page here to view my upcoming schedule. I can teach you how to paint landscapes, animals, fantasy creatures and more! Come to any of the venues I host at! I also have a book called Zheph Skyre; Book 1: Fire. It is available through Barnes and Noble, Amazon, and signed copies are on Etsy.
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Bright Autumn is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Joshua paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Joshua 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.
A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Joshua is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Murphy’s Pub and Sports Bar, 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.
Joshua is a real local artist based in Manchester — 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. Shelley T. said: 'Joshua is a very friendly, easy-going and fun teacher who just wants people to relax and enjoy themselves and their creativity.'
Murphy’s Pub and Sports Bar is a local venue in Manchester — 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 5 upcoming events in Manchester this month. You can view them here.
Bright Autumn is a fall painting — rich autumn colors that capture the season beautifully.
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 Manchester, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Bright Autumn 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 Joshua. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Murphy’s Pub and Sports Bar — 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 Joshua 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.
