Allison Prior from Newfoundland, has been teaching art since 2005 on Youtube, and Facebook, and 2007 for art communities, Paint and Sip with Clay Cafe, Seniors homes, special events, birthday parties, teaching also for City of St. John's for the Boys and Girls Club, Arts Association of Mount Pearl, and the Murphy Center. With many years of experience Allison creates a fun and exciting event, teaching easy step by step instructions for all ages and skill levels!
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Starry Lake is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Allison breaks every step down clearly. Most of our guests have never picked up a brush before, and they leave with something they're genuinely proud of. 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. Allison is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Wooden Walls Distilling, 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.
Allison is a real local artist based in St. John's — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 6 out of 11 guests who've painted with Allison say the instruction was amazing. Susan W. said: 'It is fun but time is short so you have to keep a very steady pace.'
Wooden Walls Distilling is a local venue in St. John's — 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.
Yes — we have 2 upcoming events in St. John's this month. You can view them here.
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 St. John's, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Starry Lake 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 Allison . Drinks and food are ordered separately from Wooden Walls Distilling — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Wooden Walls Distilling's event starts at 4:30 PM. We suggest showing up by 4:00 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Allison 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.
This event has reached our minimum attendance threshold and is guaranteed to run. If we ever have to cancel a guaranteed event, every ticket holder receives a full automatic refund plus a free ticket to a future Paint Nite — no questions asked. The only exception is weather or force majeure, where full refunds are issued but free tickets are not.
