Question 1

Is Song Tree good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Song Tree is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Susan paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Susan will help you turn any mistake into something intentional. Worth knowing: Paint Nite events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.

Question 2

How is Paint Nite different from a painting class?

Accepted Answer

A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Susan is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at MILAGRO 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.

Question 3

What's Susan like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Susan is a real local artist based in Carmichael — 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.

Question 4

What's MILAGRO CENTRE like?

Accepted Answer

MILAGRO CENTRE is a local venue in Carmichael — 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.

Question 5

Is Song Tree a seasonal painting?

Accepted Answer

Song Tree is a summer painting — bright, warm tones that match the season perfectly.

Question 6

Whatever happened to Yaymaker?

Accepted Answer

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 Carmichael, you're in the right place. Welcome back.

Question 7

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Song 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 Susan. Drinks and food are ordered separately from MILAGRO CENTRE — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 8

How long is Song Tree?

Accepted Answer

MILAGRO CENTRE's event starts at 11:00 AM. We suggest showing up by 10:30 AM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Susan starts the painting.

Question 9

What's the cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 10

What does "Guaranteed to Run" mean?

Accepted Answer

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.
