The paint night idea is simple: you learn how to paint and get to enjoy an adult beverage of your choice. But the Paint Bar on Newbury Street takes it to another level; the small, intimate space (much unlike other paint night events) allows you to interact more with each other and the instructor; ours spent time teaching about basic art concepts as well as different painting techniques. It was a great way to learn, explore, and have fun all at the same time.

The space is also available for private functions, which definitely got me thinking about future events. Conveniently located in Boston's Back Bay, Paint Bar is easily accessible from the Green Line. Metered parking is available on Newbury Street.
My Tips:
- Don't dress too nicely. Even though you get to wear an apron, don't risk spilling paint on your favorite shirt.
- Eat locally. Newbury is filled with different restaurants. Make a night of the experience and enjoy a meal nearby.
