The Carousel Lounge is exactly the kind of place where a night can go sideways in the best way — pool tables in the back, music up front, and now, apparently, painting. I love bringing my easel into a room like this, where nobody's taking anything too seriously and the energy is already good before a single brush hits canvas. Tonight we're painting Starry Lake Sunset, and it's one of those pieces I always look forward to — deep blacks fading into pink and blue, stars reflected on water, the kind of sky that looks harder than it is. I'll meet you where you are, whether you've painted before or you're holding a brush for the first time, and by the end of the night you'll have something that genuinely surprises you.

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Starry Lake Sunset is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Kara 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. Kara is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at The Carousel Lounge, 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.
Kara is a real local artist based in Anchorage — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. In Anchorage, 11 out of 15 Paint Nite guests rated their instructor as amazing. Craig B. said: 'The instructor, Jessica, is very good and an accomplished artist.'
The Carousel Lounge is a local venue in Anchorage — 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 93 upcoming events in Anchorage this month. You can view them here.
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 Anchorage, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Starry Lake Sunset 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 Kara. Drinks and food are ordered separately from The Carousel Lounge — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
The Carousel Lounge'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 Kara 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.
