A #TeamCreativeMagic Paint Nite event with the hilarious and epic Joyce of Art isn’t just about painting—it’s about stepping into a realm where imagination sparkles and laughter dances through the air. The moment you arrive, the space shimmers with possibility. Canvases glow under soft, golden light, brushes rest like enchanted wands, and every color on the palette feels alive with promise.
You don’t need to be an artist—just bring your curiosity and a touch of wonder. With each brushstroke, the world outside fades away, replaced by the thrill of creating something that’s purely, beautifully yours. Around you, glasses clink, music swirls, and strangers transform into friends as everyone taps into the shared magic of art and joy.
By the end of the night, you’ll leave with more than a painting—you’ll carry a piece of the enchantment itself. A swirl of color, laughter, and light that reminds you how extraordinary it feels to let go, create, and believe in a little magic.

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Christmastime In The City is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Mayisha 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. Mayisha is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Casa Mexico, 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.
Mayisha is a real local artist based in Ottawa — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 15 out of 24 guests who've painted with Mayisha say the instruction was amazing. Rose K. said: 'We had a lovely paint night with Mayisha. It was a really pretty painting, with clear instructions, and we all had a really nice evening!'
Casa Mexico is a local venue in Ottawa — 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. 35% of guests who've attended events at Casa Mexico rated the atmosphere highly.
Yes — we have 192 upcoming events in Ottawa this month. You can view them here.
Christmastime In The City 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 Ottawa, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Christmastime In The City 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 Mayisha. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Casa Mexico — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Casa Mexico's doors open at 12:00 PM, the event starts at 6:30 PM. We suggest showing up by 6:00 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Mayisha 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.
