The painting we're doing Saturday is one I keep coming back to — a moonlit sky bleeding through sunset colors, trees silhouetted against something that feels like it shouldn't work but completely does. That tension between night and warmth, dark and glow, is what makes Moonlit Sunset so satisfying to put on canvas. We're doing it at Saltfire Brewing Co in Tempe, which has exactly the kind of relaxed, low-key energy that makes a two-hour painting session feel easy. Grab a craft beer, find your seat, and I'll meet you where you are — no prior experience, no pressure. By the end, you'll have something that actually looks like that sky.

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Moonlit Sunset is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Ryan paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Ryan 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.
A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Ryan is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Saltfire Brewing Co Taphouse, 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.
Ryan is a real local artist based in Tempe — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 8 out of 10 guests who've painted with Ryan say the instruction was amazing. . said: 'Ryan is by far the best Paint Nite instructor. He is great at explaining which brushes to use and how to use them. He’s very calm but funny at the same time. Half of my experience is painting and the...'
Saltfire Brewing Co Taphouse is a local venue in Tempe — 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 23 upcoming events in Tempe 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 Tempe, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Moonlit 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 Ryan. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Saltfire Brewing Co Taphouse — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Saltfire Brewing Co Taphouse's doors open at 11:00 AM, the event starts at 1:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 12:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Ryan 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.
