Question 1

Is Peaceful Pine Lake good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Peaceful Pine Lake is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Katrina 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.

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. Katrina is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Sidelines Tavern , 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 EPPING?

Accepted Answer

Peaceful Pine Lake is one of our most popular date night paintings in EPPING. You each paint your own canvas — same painting, different results — which always makes for a fun comparison at the end of the night. The mood of the painting is romantic — expect something beautiful to bring home.

Question 4

What's Katrina like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Katrina is a real local artist based in EPPING — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 6 out of 9 guests who've painted with Katrina say the instruction was amazing. Tyisha G. said: '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...'

Question 5

What's Sidelines Tavern  like?

Accepted Answer

Sidelines Tavern  is a local venue in EPPING — 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

Are there more Paint Nite events in EPPING?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we have 2 upcoming events in EPPING this month.

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

Question 8

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Peaceful Pine Lake 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 Katrina. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Sidelines Tavern  — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 9

How long is Peaceful Pine Lake?

Accepted Answer

Sidelines Tavern 's doors open at 4:00 PM, 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 Katrina 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.
