The food and the atmosphere at East Side Heartland do a lot of the work before the brushes even come out.

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. My Growing Christmas Heart is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Nirmala 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. Nirmala is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at East Side Heartland, 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.
Nirmala is a real local artist based in Mississauga — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. In Mississauga, 48 out of 66 Paint Nite guests rated their instructor as amazing. Laura D. said: 'It’s an easy step by step, fun and creative event.'
East Side Heartland is a local venue in Mississauga — 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 157 upcoming events in Mississauga this month. You can view them here.
My Growing Christmas Heart is a winter painting — cozy seasonal vibes for a great night out.
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 Mississauga, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to My Growing Christmas Heart 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 Nirmala . Drinks and food are ordered separately from East Side Heartland — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
East Side Heartland's event starts at 7:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 6:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Nirmala 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.
