H. Barry Strasbourg-Thompson BFA holds a BFA from the University of Ottawa, an Art & Design Studio Skills Certificate from the Ontario College of Art & Design University, and a Postwar Abstract Painting Certificate from Museum of Modern Art/Coursera. Strasbourg-Thompson’s studio practice and teaching practice conducts research and publishes Fine Artworks on the themes “Confronting Ageism”, “Conscious Contact-Staying in Touch”, and “Being Your Authentic Self”.
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Under the Red Tree is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Barry 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. Barry is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at In The Beantime Cafe, 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.
Barry is a real local artist based in Ladysmith — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. Paint Nite artists complete our certification program before their first event. Across all Paint Nite events, 93% of guests say their instructor was amazing. Sheena S. said: 'It was a lot of fun - the instructor was pleasant and engaging, and his painting assistants were loads of fun. I enjoyed the night and I was pleased with the results!'
In The Beantime Cafe is a local venue in Ladysmith — 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.
Under the Red Tree is a spring painting — a fresh seasonal pick that captures the energy of the season.
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 Ladysmith, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Under the Red Tree 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 Barry. Drinks and food are ordered separately from In The Beantime Cafe — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
In The Beantime Cafe's event starts at 6:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 5:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Barry 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.
