- How do I register:
View our event page here. Click on the painting event you want to attend and bam, sign up you and friends for a great time! We recommend you register in advance because events fill up fast. - How much does it cost:
Seats in our events are typically between $35-$55, depending on the featured painting and project. You can view event costs by visiting our website calendars. Seating fee includes all the fun and everything you need to create a one-of-a-kind painting in a 2-hour period. (Funny and entertaining artist included too!) - What Should I Expect?
A typical event at Paint & Drip is an event like no other. You will be instructed to paint a one-of-a-kind masterpiece in a super fun and free environment. We also have a large variety of arts and crafts, including butterfly art, sea glass, cigar wrapper art, candle making, glass painting, and our totally unique Splatter Room! Expect to sing along to great music, maybe live music or karaoke, or just relax and zone out in your painting without a care in the world. The Aloha Spirit is alive and well in our tropical art paradise. - Do I Need to Bring Anything?
All you need to bring is yourself. We provide everything: paint, canvas, brush, apron and a really talented and funny artist to entertain and instruct you step-by-step. Come to the studio 10-15 minutes early so you can grab a drink and seat. We have a wide selection of delicious tropical mocktails, NA beer, soda floats, soft drinks, coffee, tea, and water for sale at our in-studio bar (***tiki bar is temporarily under construction | canned beverages only for the time being | 2026***). Private party guests ONLY may BYOB, including alcohol, cake, snacks, etc. Otherwise, snacks and alcohol-free beverages are available for purchase at our tiki bar. Seating is first come, first serve. - What Should I Wear?
Paint & Drip is a great place for a night out! Although aprons will be provided, please dress accordingly. For example, white pants are not the best option at our studio. Which is such a bummer because if you can pull off white pants, by golly, you should wear them…just not at our studio. Let’s face it…SPLATTER happens! We use acrylic paint and once it’s on your clothes, it really likes to stay there! You can purchase Grandma’s Secret Spot Remover from your local convenient store and it works like a charm, but you have to act fast and really put some elbow grease into it. - What is your Cancellation Policy
What a bummer! You can’t make it! Shucks! A 48 hour notice is required to have a studio credit issued to use at a later date. We do not issue refunds. No Shows will NOT be rescheduled. We welcome winter and rarely cancel events due to weather. Please plan accordingly or contact us at least 48 hours in advance if you are unable to attend.
Cancellations or rebooking requests MUST be done by Emailing: [email protected] - Is Your Studio BYOB?
Private party guests ONLY may BYOB, including alcohol, cake, snacks, etc. Saratoga Paint & Drip does NOT allow guests to bring their own food/beverages to regular classes. We have a wide selection of delicious tropical mocktails, NA beer, soda floats, soft drinks, coffee, tea, and water for sale at our in-studio bar (***tiki bar is temporarily under construction | canned beverages only for the time being | 2026***). - Do You Offer Private Parties?
Heck Yes! A Paint & Drip party is perfect for pretty much any celebration. Some parties hosted in the past have been bachelorette parties, baby showers, work parties, team builders and one of our faves, a retirement party where we all painted the guest of honor’s face. Visit our private events page for more information. We want to throw your most unforgettable luau yet! Get more info on Private Parties - How old do I have to be?
We welcome all ages, and we have small crafts available, as well as a wide selection of woodcuts and various canvas sizes. Coloring sheets are available at no cost, if littles need some art fun to occupy them while older siblings paint masterpieces at our classes or for drop-in art. Anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult, unless otherwise specified (e.g. kids camps). Our day camps and summer camp are limited to school age children – 6 years old and above. But drop-in art and regular classes are for anyone!
