When you arrive you will go to the Check-In desk so we can confirm your registration and get you set up with everything you'll need, which includes the 16 x 20 canvas, paint, apron, paintbrushes, etc. Then the lead artist will take you step-by-step through every stroke...and you leave with your own painting!  After everyone is checked-in we will start the session!

Typically, Studio sessions are $35.00 for 2 hours, $45.00 for 3 hours
When we are hosted at other local venues the cost may vary depending on the cost to us to reserve/use their business space for the class.

When you are registering for a session, you will see a place to enter a Gift Certificate or Coupon code at the top of your shopping cart.  The value will be applied to the total due for your reservation.

One person may books for a group, the total entire amount will be charged on their card at the time of booking.  This will ensure that you will get the total number of seats you require at the time of booking (for example if the number of seats available in a session is close to being sold out).  Collecting payment from individual group members who you have paid for is not the responsibiliy of Arts & Corks, as long as their seat was paid for at the time of booking.

Alternately each person can book their seat individually.  There is a place in the checkout screen where you can leave a comment to indicate who you want to be seated with and we will do our best to seat you together.  This allows each person in the group to pay their own way.

Use the Contact Us link on the left menu to indicate the session and the names of the people in your group.  We will always do our best to accommodate any requests.

PRIVATE EVENTS:
Since it's your guest list, there is no age minimum for private parties at Arts & Corks Studio!

Unless otherwise noted, classes are 2 or 3 hours, more detailed paintings are done in the 3 hr sessions. Some kid-themed sessions are 90 minutes. The duration of the class is always listed with every posted painting.

Arrival
We encourage you to arrive 15 to 20 minutes early so ywe can get checked-in and settled. We don't open the doors until 30 minutes before the start of a session, so there's no need to arrive earlier.

Parking
We have FREE street parking in downtown Puyallup!  Evening parking is fairly open, however daytime parking can sometimes be a challenge, so allow yourself enough time to find parking, and walk to Arts & Corks before the start time of your scheduled event.  We will get started on time and we cannot run over the scheduled end time.  PLEASE NOTE: Our Studio is on Meridian, which is the main ONE WAY STREET through downtown, running from North --> South (toward Southhill). If you are not familiar with downtown Puyallup, please keep an eye out for the one way signs on Meridian.

You bring your sense of fun and inner artist, we'll supply everything else you will need for your class (paints, brushes, easel, canvas, apron, etc.)

Our canvases are 16 x 20 inches. If we have a special class with a smaller or larger size canvas or different medium, the size will be noted in the class description.

Absolutely!  The classess are designed so that your painting will be dry by the end of the session.  If you are running a little behind we even have hair dryers to speed up the process.

Not at all. This is YOUR painting, let your creativity shine!
If you like the look of the featured painting as it is, our artist instructor will guide you step-by-step through it. Or you may want to change colors or parts of the picture (for example, to match your home decor, a favorite color, etc.) to create your own unique artwork. Our experienced artists are there to offer help and encourage you to "make it your own."

 

Though we provide an apron, there is still a chance you will get paint on you.  The paint is water-based acrylic, so it washes off, but we still suggest you wear clothes that you wouldn't mind getting paint on.

We use water-based, non-toxic, acrylic paint.

Absolutely!  Book your private party at Arts & Corks Studio in downtown Puyallup.

No. For two reasons, 1- We are a Bar, no minors are allowed in the studio, 2- at Family & Kids events held outside the studio, where age 5 and up are allowed to paint with a parent present, please do not bring infants and toddlers. 

While painting is a relaxing and enjoyable experience, it does require your full attention and both hands to do.

We love babies and children as much as you do, however, please arrange for childcare before your session.  This will allow you to relax and unwind without having to care for your child(ren), and will not disrupt the session.
