While Caitlin may not have a formal education in art, she has always been the creative one of family and friends. She enjoys doing just about anything hands on, including (but not limited to!): interior decorating, building, antique refurbishment, drawing, painting (duh), and sewing. She is always working at at least a few projects at any given time. When it comes to the fine arts, Caitlin is self taught in pastels, and enjoys creating extremely detailed portraits of horses for clients. Speaking of horses, Caitlin spends her time outdoors training and caring for them full time, so excuse the stray piece of hay in her hair if she's teaching Paint Nite after being at the barn all day! Fun fact: Caitlin is one of the lucky few women to have color-blindness...so don't ask her if your shade of brown looks too green! Bottoms up
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes — Cats & Dogs is one of our most approachable paintings. Absolute first-timers finish this one looking great. Daraja walks you through every step, and the whole group moves together so nobody falls behind. 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. Daraja is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Mount Vernon Marketplace, 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.
Daraja is a real local artist based in Baltimore — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. Paint Nite artists complete our certification program before their first event. Across all Paint Nite events, 93% of guests say their instructor was amazing.
Mount Vernon Marketplace is a local venue in Baltimore — 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.
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 Baltimore, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Cats & Dogs 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 Daraja. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Mount Vernon Marketplace — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Mount Vernon Marketplace's event starts at 6:30 PM. We suggest showing up by 6:00 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Daraja 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.
This event has reached our minimum attendance threshold and is guaranteed to run. If we ever have to cancel a guaranteed event, every ticket holder receives a full automatic refund plus a free ticket to a future Paint Nite — no questions asked. The only exception is weather or force majeure, where full refunds are issued but free tickets are not.
