Warm oranges bleeding into deep violet, a sun meeting the sea in that last brilliant second before it disappears — that's the painting Monique Rainville is guiding everyone through at Saffron's on Corydon, and it's the kind of image that actually looks stunning on a wall when you're done. Monique has run well over a thousand of these nights, so she knows exactly how to read a room and meet people where they are — no prior experience, no stress, just a relaxed pace and someone genuinely invested in making sure everyone walks away proud of what they made. Saffron's brings its own warmth to the evening, tucked into Winnipeg's Little Italy neighbourhood with a menu worth exploring before and after the brushes come out. The wave itself, all that light and colour moving across the canvas, tends to surprise people — it looks ambitious at the start and clicks into place by the end.
*13+, Minors must be accompanied by a participating adult, each with their own ticket. (No spectators will be seated in the event area). Delicious food and drinks are available for purchase; not included*

I'm thrilled to be hosting/instructing an experience that can be so empowering, transformative, and therapeutic (at the very least, huge fun!)... It's beautiful to watch people amaze themselves; doing something adventurous and overcoming doubts. I hope to provide you with a supportive, encouraging environment, where you can just relax, create, and laugh along with me (I goof around a lot)! My artistic background is wildly varied (pencil portraits, professional face painting, crafts/card making, carving, sculpting, design/decorating projects) - I love any chance to be creative! I can't wait to have you out to explore and unleash your own glorious artistry! Whether you're with your friends or flying solo, it's SO much fun! See you soon! :)
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Sun Kissed Wave is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Monique paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Monique 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. Monique is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Saffron's, 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.
Monique is a real local artist based in Winnipeg — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 72 out of 78 guests who've painted with Monique say the instruction was amazing. Kate B. said: 'Fun way to spend time with friends. Monique is an amazing teacher walks you through the painting step by step. Anyone can do this! Get ready to bring your inner artist and have some laughs!'
Saffron's is a local venue in Winnipeg — 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. 70% of guests who've attended events at Saffron's rated the atmosphere highly.
Yes — we have 99 upcoming events in Winnipeg this month. You can view them here.
Sun Kissed Wave is a summer painting — bright, warm tones that match the season perfectly.
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 Winnipeg, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Sun Kissed Wave 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 Monique . Drinks and food are ordered separately from Saffron's — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Saffron's's doors open at 12:00 PM, the 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 Monique 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.
