Whimsical Dawn is the kind of painting that looks like it came from a storybook — all soft pinks and oranges bleeding into a brightening sky, trees in silhouette, reflections shimmering in the water below. I picked it because it has this gentle, dreamy quality that I think surprises people when they realize they've painted it themselves. We'll build it up together, so even if you've never held a brush in your life, the whole thing unfolds naturally. Aroma at the Delta is a lovely spot to spend a Sunday evening — easy, comfortable, and the kind of place that makes the whole night feel a little more special. By the end, you'll have something genuinely worth keeping.
Prairie driven, artfully crafted. Aroma is located in the lobby of The Delta Saskatoon Downtown.
Relaxed, contemporary hotel stop offering Mediterranean dishes plus pizza, salads & a full bar.

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Whimsical Dawn is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Phaedra 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. Phaedra is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Aroma Restobar, Delta Hotel Saskatoon, 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.
Phaedra is a real local artist based in Saskatoon — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. In Saskatoon, 30 out of 41 Paint Nite guests rated their instructor as amazing. Carla B. said: 'Was such fun! I really liked how how the artist taught each step!'
Aroma Restobar, Delta Hotel Saskatoon is a local venue in Saskatoon — 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. 55% of guests who've attended events at Aroma Restobar, Delta Hotel Saskatoon rated the atmosphere highly.

More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you used to attend Yaymaker events in Saskatoon, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Whimsical Dawn 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 Phaedra. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Aroma Restobar, Delta Hotel Saskatoon — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Aroma Restobar, Delta Hotel Saskatoon's event starts at 5:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 4:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Phaedra starts the painting.
You can reschedule your ticket to any other Paint Nite event up to 8 hours before this one starts. Rescheduling more than 48 hours in advance is free; within 48 hours of the start time there's a $10 fee per ticket. You can't reschedule within 8 hours of the start time, but if an emergency comes up, reach out to our customer service team and we'll do our best to help. Event tickets are not refundable, but your reschedule codes never expire, so you can redeem them whenever it suits you. If Paint Nite cancels this event, you'll receive a full automatic refund.
