I’m a self taught artist. I use my brushes, pens and colors to go vocal on social issues, capture emotions in portraits and share temptations of food. I have displayed my art in various galleries of Massachusetts and India. Won awards in juried shows. Got written about with my artwork printed on a coffee table book and this year had one of my pieces chosen to be displayed at the Fitchburg Art Museum. Whenever I can I donate my work for charity auction to give back to society.
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Rainbow Light House is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Anju 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. Anju is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Novotel Toronto Centre, 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.
Anju is a real local artist based in Toronto — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. In Toronto, 52 out of 62 Paint Nite guests rated their instructor as amazing. Tiffany D. said: 'A great event to enjoy with your friends (and meet new ones), and to unleash your inner artist)! The instructor was fantastic and helped us every step of the way.'
Novotel Toronto Centre is a local venue in Toronto — 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 148 upcoming events in Toronto this month. You can view them here.
Rainbow Light House 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 Toronto, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Rainbow Light House 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 Anju. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Novotel Toronto Centre — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Novotel Toronto Centre'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 Anju 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.
