Where are they hosted?
Paint parties are hosted in your own home or at a location of your choosing (if renting a venue the client is responsible for covering any venue fees and communicating the time allotted for the venue) and I bring all the supplies and expertise to you.
What ages are they for?
I have hosted parties for all ages ten to adulthood. I can handle parties for younger children by scaling down the difficulty of the painting to their age level for as young as five.
Do I choose the painting?
If you decide to book a paint party with me, you select your theme. I will need to know the approximate age and number of attendees so I can do a sample painting for your approval in advance of the party.
How many can you host?
Group size is dependent on age. For children 5-7 it is limited to groups of 5. For children 8-12 it is limited to groups of 10. For adults and children 13 and up groups can be as large as 15.
How much does it cost?
Regardless of age the cost is $25 per person.
Is food allowed?
If you’re hosting in your home there are no restrictions, if you are hosting at a venue—check with the venue. I can allot a thirty minute break in the middle of the painting for food and snacks. We can work out a timeline together for your event.
Is adult supervision required?
For children’s parties, for every third child there must be an additional chaperone in attendance to manage behavior.
How far will you travel?
I will travel within a one hour radius of my residence, which serves the Lady Lake, The Villages, Leesburg, Wildwood, Ocala, Eustis, Mount Dora, Zellwood, Clermont, Apopka, Winter Garden, and Ocoee areas. If you are further away contact me and we may be able to come to another arrangement.
What do you have to provide?
It is your responsibility to provide the location and a flat surface on which to paint and seating. Each person will need about 2 feet of tablespace to work in for supplies and movement. If you don’t have tables and chairs large enough for your party you may rent 2 8 foot tables and 4 6 foot benches from me for an additional $25.
What do I provide?
I provide table easels, 16x20 canvases (unless a smaller size is requested for younger guests—this does not change the per person price), paint, paint brushes, compostable plates to function as paint pallets, compostable water cups for cleaning brushes), oversized long sleeve shirts to serve as smocks, a tablecloth to protect the surface and step by step instructions and guidance on following along to paint. I will also bring bags with me to take the materials back home with me to cleanse and compost at home.
Do you offer any extra services?
I do not provide any catering or favors for parties but can offer recommendations.
How can I contact you for more questions?
You can always email me at elchurch87@gmail.com, or call or text me at (407) 755-7336 and I would be more than happy to answer any other questions you might have or to talk about a theme.
Can you do a different painting for the same group?
The basic structure of the painting would have to remain the same (meaning if it’s a mermaid the basic shape will still be a mermaid) but I can bring additional colors with me so that you can choose your own colors to paint with so that your painting is most suited to you.
Can younger than 5 participate?
If a single sibling under the age of 5 would like to paint I can bring an 8x10 canvas for them at no additional charge—though I cannot guarantee the outcome of their project.
How long do they last?
I will be there for 4.5 hours - 30 minutes to setup, 3 hours instruction with a 30 minute break, and 30 minutes for clean up. Timeline discussed prior to the party.
What skills does my child need to have?
Children must be able to remain focused on a single task for at least an hour and half and are able to resume the task for another hour and a half after a 30 minute break. They must also be able to color within the lines as the very young will have the shapes pre-drawn on their canvas.
What days do you host?
I can host on Saturdays and Sundays with start times from 10am to 3:30pm based on your preference.
