What a fun concept! I had never done anything like this before. So glad I finally got to try. It's a perfect idea for date night, girls night, or just something fun to do to get out of the house. Classes are $35 for two hours or I believe $60 for three hours (our instructor mentioned something about bringing in a photo of your pet to be painted at the three hour class?! I must look more in to this). But they offer a discount if you sign up for a future class while attending the current class.
I am by no means an artist and was a little anxious that my painting would end up looking like a 6 year old was let loose with the big kids, but the instructor walks you through the process step by step, while still encouraging individuality.
The best part is that it's BYOB. They can provide you with glasses, wine key, refrigerator etc. Also they sell wine on premises in case you forget or run out ;)
