The lounge was absolutely beautiful. I loved the decor and the flower backdrop added a really nice touch! The candle scents were aligned along the wall for us to smell and we were able to choose an apron and candle jar before sitting at our table. Our host was super fun and personable. She shared the back story of how the lounge came about and got us excited to create candles. I chose the Yuzu & Volcano scents which had a light, sweet scent. They walked us through each step and made the process simple and easy. For my drinks, I ordered the Cabernet and the Bacardi Rum Punch. I thoroughly enjoyed the Rum Punch. All of our candles turned out great and smelled amazing! We even went around the room sharing the name of our candles. I called mine "Elevate". Afterwards, we took group pictures and thanked them for a wonderful evening! The class was $45 and worth every penny. If you're looking for a girl's night out, date night or just a solo night, definitely stop in to Wick & Sip Candle Lounge! You will not be disappointed!!!

Went here Friday for Valentine's Day date night. This was my first time attending a Muse Paint bar…read moreclass. Upon walking in, we were directed to our assigned table and easels. We were originally assigned to a table with only bar stools, but asked to be moved to a table with actual regular chairs. At first, one staff member seemed like it was an "undoable" task until I spoke with a different person, the man who led our painting class, who easily said it was no problem. That was a little weird tho. Took us a min to get started, not sure what the hold up was. Once we began, I feel like our instructor went at a decent pace and explained directions thoroughly throughout the night. As the night went on, there was a staff member who consistently went around all night collecting trash and telling everyone their painting was "beautiful" and "nice." This made all of us attendees laugh because we all felt our paintings were actually looking crazy lol. Had the option to order food and drinks directly at the bar or to scan a QR code attached to our easels and order from our phones. We didn't get any food because we had dinner plans, but from what I saw other people order, the food looked pretty decent. I did try a drink, the White Peach Sangria (8/10) it was decently sweet and refreshing. I can see myself going back for another painting class. We did the individual paintings side of the building, but on the other side, the easels are coupled together for the paintings to be "connected" so I think we'll do that painting style next time. My overall rate of experience : 9/10

Ladies Night at paint bar is a perfect way to unwind after a long day or work day…read more Checking is smooth they have your name on your canvas to prepared you and the bar was very well assembled. Walking you are surrounded with a free space and vibrant atmosphere full of art that master create as well as pieces you can even purchase that are displayed on the wall. The instructor was phenomenal she guided us through each way and make sure we were happy with the piece and if there was any edit that we needed help with they were willing to help. And this was definitely beginner/advanced class but definitely a good start to those that want to try to look what masterpiece you can make. They do recommend you getting there the time the bar/kitchen opens to get time to order food and drinks .The service was good and the food and drinks were good I was recommended to try there pepperoni flatbread and that was honestly a good piece as well as there drinks are nice and light and not to heavy on you a perfect way to just unwind and let them you guide throughout the night. They do offer paint your pet might do that for our pet and. I did see a piece on the wall that I want to do that is happening tomorrow. And I did like the way they showcase Each of the painting so you can see it in person for the first time or when you visit you can see what each painting they're doing for that month. If you are first timer or pro all welcome here and I would come back again for another painting it was definitely a great time. Perfect way to start the new year to make artwork I did rebook for an afternoon and want to check out both day and night and for day it's all ages and night depending on what the event is.

This non-profit gallery was opened to help the people of Bangladesh receive help and funding through the expression of art. The community has helped her keep this gallery a float by doing a total remodel of the place. They've broke down walls and made the place more open and suitable for the gallery. She has begun to hold art classes every Wednesday. The classes are open for many local artist to come bring their creativity and for those wanting to get a better understanding and introductory to art. The place still needs a little more work to be done to get to bring art awareness. Perhaps 3/5 stars as far as presentation. But I'm in full support of raising art for a cause. It will be good to get this organization with full attention. I feel fine arts now a days has been lost with having technology. This is great for our local artist who are struggling and can get some recognition. It's nice to have local artist in the area come together and have their work on display. The gallery is beautiful and can't wait to try one of the classes.
