4.8 average ratingPaint Nite in Oxnard is the city's favourite paint and sip night — a guided painting party hosted right inside local Oxnard bars and restaurants, not a formal art studio. A local artist walks you and your group through a featured painting over about two hours while you enjoy a drink of your choice. Everything you need is included: easel, canvas, paints, brushes and an apron. You just bring your people.
Whether you're planning a date night, a birthday, a team social or a low-key evening out, our Oxnard events run across the most popular neighbourhoods in and around California. Browse upcoming nights by date, venue or artist below, grab your seat, and check out online in under a minute — no experience required, and you take your canvas home.
New to it? Most first-timers are genuinely surprised by what they paint. The whole point of Paint Nite is that anyone can do it: your artist breaks the painting into simple, guided steps and works the room the entire time. Prefer to stay in? We also run live virtual and on-demand classes you can paint from home, anywhere in California.
We host inside real neighbourhood bars and restaurants — explore the rooms, then pick your night.

Candlelit wine bars and skylit lounges make Paint Nite one of the most-booked date nights in Oxnard — a low-pressure, high-charm evening that beats another dinner-and-a-movie.
Our larger Oxnard venues seat big groups, and we can run a private party just for your crew — no strangers at the table. It breaks the ice better than any escape room.
Nearly every Oxnard venue is a short walk from transit or has parking nearby, so the whole group can get there easily — and get home easily after.
Every night is run by real local people — an event planner, a host artist, and a neighbourhood venue. Here's who makes it happen.
A local event planner books the venues, lines up the artists and builds the Oxnard calendar — running it like their own small business.
A vetted local artist leads the room, teaching the painting step by step and keeping the night fun. Every host is a real person from your area — trained and quality-reviewed, never a script-reading franchise employee.
We don't own a single building. Every Oxnard night happens at a real neighbourhood bar or restaurant with a full bar and kitchen.
Show up, paint, sip and laugh. Leave with a canvas you made yourself — no experience needed.
Bars and restaurants across Oxnard fill seats and sell drinks on slow weeknights by hosting Paint Nite. We bring the artists, the supplies and the crowd — you bring the room.
The faces behind the easels
This was more fun and entertaining than I thought it would be. My Friend and I had a wonderful great time letting our creativity shine through on our canvas. Lady T is a wonderful instructor and made us all feel so at ease painting together and expressing our own unique ways of painting by encouraging us. I definitely would do this again. Thank you 🙏💕💕💕
The event was very relaxed and no pressure in painting something perfect. And Melodie cared more about my enjoyement of the time together than anything else.
Instructor was cheerful and helpful. Entertaining. Great for all ages!
Dakota was awesome! He made it fun and his directions were very easy to follow. He was also very encouraging.
Love art and a good crowd? Become a Paint Nite host artist, set your own schedule, and get paid to lead the most fun night in town.
Can't make it out? Paint from home with a live virtual class led by a real artist, or grab an on-demand class and paint whenever you like.
