An art gallery meets café meets bar meets classroom. That’s Muse Paintbar in a nutshell. During canvas-painting sessions, friends gather to bond and get acquainted with others as the staff mans the stocked bar, pouring glasses of inspirational wine and beer. While fledgling Picassos sip, relax, and nibble on snacks, a trained artist leads them through an easy-to-follow assignment, offering personal assistance and words of encouragement throughout the class. After they add the final flourishes to their masterpieces, guests proudly take their finished works home to hang over the mantel or the face of their least favorite family member. Muse Paintbar also hosts themed nights, including couples night, and it can be reserved for private parties and kids’ events.
