Yes. Design a Sign: Expression is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Diane 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: Design a Sign events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.

Diane is a real local artist based in St Albans City — 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. Sharon J. said: 'Step by step instructions were very good. Good music.'

Twiggs An American Gastropub is a local venue in St Albans City — a real local spot, not a dedicated painting studio. Design a Sign 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.

Your ticket to Design a Sign: Expression 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 Diane. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Twiggs An American Gastropub — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Twiggs An American Gastropub'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 Diane starts the painting.

You can reschedule your ticket to any other Design a Sign event up to 24 hours before this one starts. After that, tickets are locked — no refunds or changes. If Design a Sign cancels this event for any reason, you'll receive a full automatic refund.
