Pinot’s Palette

This was so much fun! I would have totally enjoyed a glass of wine, but since I was doing #whole30 had to skip it, and instead took my Yeti with perigrino & lime. The instructor was fun & easy to follow. The place was PACKED! Would be a fun place for date night:) i want to go again soon.

A coworker and I came for an evening wine-​n-​paint session. It was my first time and was really excited. All the staff were really helpful and friendly, and the wine bottle prices weren’t too shabby either. Though I wish our painting was nature themed (it was Jazz, instead), the experience was still really fun. I’ve already highly recommended this place to friends!

Pinot’s Palette is a great evening activity; it’s a unique experience and great for a date.
Classes range in price, but they’re usually about $ 50 or less per person. All you need to do is show up: they have all the paint, canvasses, etc. ready for you when you arrive.
If painting a picture sounds absolutely miserable to you (and to many it might), they have a bar with various beers and wines. However, the painting really is fun. Someone will sit up at the front of the room and walk you through the painting, step-​by-​step. If you’re careful and follow the steps, you can make something that’s pretty cool!
We’ve done it twice: our first was a «Starry Night» piece where we each painted half (on our separate canvases) and it formed one image. The second was a (coincidentally) «Starry Night» with Tulsa buildings in the foreground. Neither painting was too difficult, and if someone walked in and looked at mine they would recognize the image.
The only downsides of note are that the selection of alcohol is poor and you’ll undoubtedly sit by a paint flicker. First, I really like just basic beer. Give me a Bud Light… they have Stella Artois. Next, the paint flicking: you’re a little crammed in there with little rickety tables. There’s a good chance the person next to you will bump your table, nearly spill one of the cups of water, or insist on waving their paint-​covered brush around. That being said, I’ve only gotten a little paint on me after two visits.
Overall, this is a really fun activity and a nice change of pace.
