Join artist Brooke Dahmen for a fun-filled evening as you create "Kinusaiga Art" at Top Shelf Bar & Grill. This isn't your typical art class; it's an exciting night out where you'll create a vibrant piece featuring stunning colors like blue, red, and orange. All supplies are included, making it easy for everyone, whether you're a seasoned painter or picking up a brush for the first time. Bring your friends, grab a drink, and let the good vibes roll as you dive into this social painting experience.
During this two-hour session, you'll bring to life a beautiful abstract art piece that captures the Japanese art of Kinusaiga. Quilting without thread! With Brooke's impressive rating of 4.57 stars from 462 events, you can trust you'll be in good hands. Each participant will receive an 8x8 foam "canvas" and access to a wide array of fabrics necessary to create your own unique piece. It encouraged though, that if you have any fabric (clothing or blankets or something you want to cut up) that are personal to you, bring them along and we can incorporate them into your piece! This event is open to adults only (for now), so gather your crew for an unforgettable night of fun and creativity.

Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes. Kinusaiga Art is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Brooke 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: Fabrics/Knitting events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.
Brooke is a real local artist based in Gurnee — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 7 out of 9 guests who've painted with Brooke say the instruction was amazing. Susan A. said: 'Brooke is the best, she makes everyone feel like an artist!'
Top Shelf Bar & Grill is a local venue in Gurnee — a real local spot, not a dedicated painting studio. Fabrics/Knitting 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 7 upcoming events in Gurnee this month. You can view them here.
Your ticket to Kinusaiga Art 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 Brooke. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Top Shelf Bar & Grill — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Top Shelf Bar & Grill's event starts at 7:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 6:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Brooke starts the painting.
You can reschedule your ticket to any other Fabrics/Knitting event up to 24 hours before this one starts. After that, tickets are locked — no refunds or changes. If Fabrics/Knitting cancels this event for any reason, you'll receive a full automatic refund.
