Question 1

Is Gettin' Festive Reindeer good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Gettin' Festive Reindeer is one of our most approachable paintings. Absolute first-timers finish this one looking great. Karren walks you through every step, and the whole group moves together so nobody falls behind. 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. Karren is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Rudy's Diner-Harrington, 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

What's Karren like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Karren is a real local artist based in Harrington — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 14 out of 18 guests who've painted with Karren say the instruction was amazing. Sherry G. said: 'It is a well attended event. Sponsors are friendly and helpful. You have to listen carefully and take the plunge because it's not easy to see the instructor because of the layout of the area. Despite...'

Question 4

What's Rudy's Diner-Harrington like?

Accepted Answer

Rudy's Diner-Harrington is a local venue in Harrington — 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 5

Are there more Paint Nite events in Harrington?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we have 11 upcoming events in Harrington this month.

Question 6

Is Gettin' Festive Reindeer a seasonal painting?

Accepted Answer

Gettin' Festive Reindeer is a winter painting — cozy seasonal vibes for a great night out.

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

Question 8

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Gettin' Festive Reindeer 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 Karren. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Rudy's Diner-Harrington — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 9

How long is Gettin' Festive Reindeer?

Accepted Answer

Rudy's Diner-Harrington'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 Karren 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.
