our mission:
bring art to the people!
We're all about bringing folks together to share a laugh and try something new. And while getting drinks with friends is always fun, sometimes, you want more. We provide the “more” while you enjoy that glass (or two or three…) of wine, mainly in the form of Paint Nites.

FAQ’s
PaintNite.com is not a franchise—instead, it’s an
opportunity for passionate entrepreneurs to create their
own craft and sip business with their own branding
(should you desire).
The benefits of using our platform and not opening a
franchise or going out alone are you have…
● No need for business loans. It’s $2.5K for Event
Owners to get started vs. the $100K+ to open a
franchise.
● Access to our 3M+ email subscribers
● Marketing help & tools for success
● A brilliant support network of like-minded people
● A big-named brand behind you
Unlike competing paint and sip franchises, Paint Nite
has taken the paint and sip experience out of the
studio. Also…
● We are not a franchise—we offer a revenue share model.
This is an opportunity to have your own paint and sip
business.
● We use all original artwork (and pay our artists a
commission).
● We offer multiple formats and experience types—not
just painting.
● We put our artists front and center.
Other franchises use their own studios, but we party in
restaurants and bars. This means we’re supporting
existing locations and connecting them with new patrons
rather than opening a competing business.
Plus…
● There’s a better atmosphere.
● There are more food & drink options (not just
wine!)
● There’s no need to worry about a liquor license or
local regulations.
● There are no franchise fees, leases etc.
You don't have to be a pro artist or a paint and sip veteran to join our team of hosts. The focus for guests is on having fun and hopefully making new friends rather than becoming an expert. Experienced painters are welcome, but we offer many creative events if that’s not your thing.
Absolutely! Our team welcomes any creative skills you can bring to the table—not just painting. You can pick from our selection of experiences, but if you've got a new concept, we're all ears!
Hosts don’t need to invest anything into their new job. But, if you're interested in becoming an Event Owner and taking things to the next level, we ask for a $2,500 investment to help cover the cost of painting supplies and marketing materials. This is in comparison to the $100K+ paint and sip franchises require.
Assuming Paint Nites are the way you want to go, Event
Owners will receive an initial kit to cover their first
120+ guests. After that, you will need to replenish the
following:
● Acrylic paint (primary colors, white and black)
● Canvases (we typically use 16” x 20”)
● Tablecloths, paper plates & paper towels (unless you
want to go a more sustainable route)
And guess what? We have partnerships with
Michaels
and
JOANN, so you can access exclusive pricing and save money.
Not only do we offer in-person services but also virtual
and on-demand. So you can certainly run wine and paint
parties at home if you have enough space.
Virtual events are live and interactive over a video
call, so guests can connect with one another. Whereas
on-demand events are pre-recorded for guests to watch
whenever they like.
You can host various events, including public events, private parties, corporate events, large parties, intimate team-building activities and fundraisers. You can also choose which creative experiences you offer.
