Dinner & drinks before your easel

Grab a drink, follow a local artist step by step, and leave with a canvas you painted yourself. No experience needed — it's a night out first, an art class second. Here's what's coming up in Ferryland.
4.8 average ratingPaint Nite in Ferryland is the city's favourite paint and sip night — a guided painting party hosted right inside local Ferryland bars and restaurants, not a formal art studio. A local artist walks you and your group through a featured painting over about two hours while you enjoy a drink of your choice. Everything you need is included: easel, canvas, paints, brushes and an apron. You just bring your people.
Whether you're planning a date night, a birthday, a team social or a low-key evening out, our Ferryland events run across the most popular neighbourhoods in and around Newfoundland and Labrador. Browse upcoming nights by date, venue or artist below, grab your seat, and check out online in under a minute — no experience required, and you take your canvas home.
New to it? Most first-timers are genuinely surprised by what they paint. The whole point of Paint Nite is that anyone can do it: your artist breaks the painting into simple, guided steps and works the room the entire time. Prefer to stay in? We also run live virtual and on-demand classes you can paint from home, anywhere in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Most of our Ferryland venues are full bars and kitchens, so come hungry. Grab a bite and a drink before your easel, then settle in — your supplies are already waiting at your seat.
Candlelit wine bars and skylit lounges make Paint Nite one of the most-booked date nights in Ferryland — a low-pressure, high-charm evening that beats another dinner-and-a-movie.
Our larger Ferryland venues seat big groups, and we can run a private party just for your crew — no strangers at the table. It breaks the ice better than any escape room.
Nearly every Ferryland venue is a short walk from transit or has parking nearby, so the whole group can get there easily — and get home easily after.
Every night is run by real local people — an event planner, a host artist, and a neighbourhood venue. Here's who makes it happen.
A local event planner books the venues, lines up the artists and builds the Ferryland calendar — running it like their own small business.
A vetted local artist leads the room, teaching the painting step by step and keeping the night fun. Every host is a real person from your area — trained and quality-reviewed, never a script-reading franchise employee.
We don't own a single building. Every Ferryland night happens at a real neighbourhood bar or restaurant with a full bar and kitchen.
Show up, paint, sip and laugh. Leave with a canvas you made yourself — no experience needed.
Bars and restaurants across Ferryland fill seats and sell drinks on slow weeknights by hosting Paint Nite. We bring the artists, the supplies and the crowd — you bring the room.

Paint Nite is a social painting event hosted at bars and restaurants across Ferryland — not an art studio.
