Technicolor Hummingbird

Technicolor Hummingbird is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Joshua paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Joshua will help you turn any mistake into something intentional. Worth knowing: Paint Nite events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.

A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Joshua is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Rec Room WEM, a real local spot, not a studio. Paint Nite invented this format in 2012 and has sold more than 10 million tickets. The trade-off is honest: lighting varies, it can get loud, and the person at the next easel is a stranger. That's the point. It's more of a night out than a class.

Yes — Technicolor Hummingbird is a Paint Nite favourite for girls nights in Edmonton. Everyone paints their own canvas, so there's always something to laugh about at the end. If you're planning a bachelorette party or a larger group, private events of 10+ get reserved seating and a custom experience.

Joshua is a real local artist based in Edmonton — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 31 out of 32 guests who've painted with Joshua say the instruction was amazing. mark m. said: 'What a great time, It's intimate and interactive. A fun crowd with lots of laughs. Our painting guru Josh is an excellent painter and teacher, patient with jokes for days. My wife and I will be going...'

Rec Room WEM is a local venue in Edmonton — a real local spot, not a dedicated painting studio. Paint Nite events happen at places like this by design — venues with character, regulars, and a bar. It can get lively. That's what makes it a night out rather than a class. 67% of guests who've attended events at Rec Room WEM rated the atmosphere highly.

Technicolor Hummingbird is a spring painting — a fresh seasonal pick that captures the energy of the season.

Yaymaker is Paint Nite. We brought both brands together under the Paint Nite name — same artists, same events, same format we invented in 2012. More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you used to attend Yaymaker events in Edmonton, you're in the right place. Welcome back.

Your ticket to Technicolor Hummingbird includes the canvas, all the paint you'll need, the use of brushes and an apron during the event, and step-by-step instruction from Joshua . Drinks and food are ordered separately from Rec Room WEM — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Rec Room WEM's event starts at 6:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 5:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Joshua starts the painting.

You can reschedule your ticket to any other Paint Nite event up to 24 hours before this one starts. After that, tickets are locked — no refunds or changes. If Paint Nite cancels this event for any reason, you'll receive a full automatic refund.
