Van Gogh's Cat

Yes. Van Gogh's Cat is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Fraser Valley 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.

Fraser Valley is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Samz Pub Port Coquitlam, 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.
