Dinner & drinks before your easel
Most of our Ashburnham venues are full bars and kitchens, so come hungry. Grab a bite and a drink before your easel, then settle in — your supplies are already waiting at your seat.
Grab a drink, follow a local artist step by step, and leave with a canvas you painted yourself. No experience needed — it's a night out first, an art class second. Here's what's coming up in Ashburnham.
4.8 average ratingPaint Nite in Ashburnham is the city's favourite paint and sip night — a guided painting party hosted right inside local Ashburnham bars and restaurants, not a formal art studio. A local artist walks you and your group through a featured painting over about two hours while you enjoy a drink of your choice. Everything you need is included: easel, canvas, paints, brushes and an apron. You just bring your people.
Whether you're planning a date night, a birthday, a team social or a low-key evening out, our Ashburnham events run across the most popular neighbourhoods in and around Massachusetts. Browse upcoming nights by date, venue or artist below, grab your seat, and check out online in under a minute — no experience required, and you take your canvas home.
New to it? Most first-timers are genuinely surprised by what they paint. The whole point of Paint Nite is that anyone can do it: your artist breaks the painting into simple, guided steps and works the room the entire time. Prefer to stay in? We also run live virtual and on-demand classes you can paint from home, anywhere in Massachusetts.
We host inside real neighbourhood bars and restaurants — explore the rooms, then pick your night.

Most of our Ashburnham venues are full bars and kitchens, so come hungry. Grab a bite and a drink before your easel, then settle in — your supplies are already waiting at your seat.
Candlelit wine bars and skylit lounges make Paint Nite one of the most-booked date nights in Ashburnham — a low-pressure, high-charm evening that beats another dinner-and-a-movie.
Our larger Ashburnham venues seat big groups, and we can run a private party just for your crew — no strangers at the table. It breaks the ice better than any escape room.
Nearly every Ashburnham venue is a short walk from transit or has parking nearby, so the whole group can get there easily — and get home easily after.
Every night is run by real local people — an event planner, a host artist, and a neighbourhood venue. Here's who makes it happen.
A local event planner books the venues, lines up the artists and builds the Ashburnham calendar — running it like their own small business.
A vetted local artist leads the room, teaching the painting step by step and keeping the night fun. Every host is a real person from your area — trained and quality-reviewed, never a script-reading franchise employee.
We don't own a single building. Every Ashburnham night happens at a real neighbourhood bar or restaurant with a full bar and kitchen.
Show up, paint, sip and laugh. Leave with a canvas you made yourself — no experience needed.
Bars and restaurants across Ashburnham fill seats and sell drinks on slow weeknights by hosting Paint Nite. We bring the artists, the supplies and the crowd — you bring the room.
The faces behind the easels
We had a great time, the instructor genuinely enjoyed her job, made you feel comfortable, welcome, she was very helpful, engaged, positive & it was really encouraging, fun, funny & gave any of us "non painters" with no experience the confidence to turn something blank into something beautiful
Cat is always fun to paint with. She creates a fun and relaxing experience
The environment and experience was relaxing mostly thanks to the host. The environment that the host creates is welcoming and inclusive to people at all levels of experience in painting. This was my third event attended with this host. I highly recommend Paint Nite with this host.
Paint nite with Shilpa was so much fun! I highly recommend her classes. It was a small group so we did lots of extra things and learned all kind of techniques! Shilpa was very generous with us all. She is very patient and a talented artist and teacher. This was a wonderful night out, though a small group we had lots of fun. The venue -Flying Dreams Brewery was awesome as well! Shilpa does private events , what a wonderful gathering that would make for friends and family! If you are interested in
Was very fun,Kay is the funniest artist and we loved her.
Very fun time. Loved that I could include my 2 granddaughters (aged 10 & 12). Host was very helpful and friendly. She was also very patient when we got a little bit behind and gave us different ideas and suggestions.
Had a great time! DJ was awesome! Paint Kits were so cool.
Love art and a good crowd? Become a Paint Nite host artist, set your own schedule, and get paid to lead the most fun night in town.
Can't make it out? Paint from home with a live virtual class led by a real artist, or grab an on-demand class and paint whenever you like.
