Paint the Town completely dropped the ball. I spent weeks confirming headcount, party details,…read morepayments, and logistics with them. Then, on the morning of my daughter's party (scheduled for 11:30 AM), the instructor sent a vague text at 6:45 AM saying they wouldn't be able to make it and then never responded to any of my follow-ups. To make matters worse, I couldn't reach anyone at the company. I called, texted, and emailed multiple times trying to see if they could send a backup instructor or at least switch to a virtual format. Nothing. No support, no communication...just silence. Finally, I heard back from someone on Monday, asking if I wanted to reschedule. Because apparently, that's how birthday parties work? This company clearly doesn't understand the basics of customer service or event planning. I regret ever trusting them with something so important. I would not recommend Paint the Town -- look for a more reliable company that actually puts their customers first.

Decided to do this with co-workers, and honestly, we all had a great time. We all had various skill levels when it came to painting, but we all enjoyed ourselves. Our instructor was also very helpful - guiding us through the different steps of completing our portraits and encouraging us along the way. There were also food and wine options. I wouldn't say they're the best ever, but it hit good. Especially drinking wine and painting. I would highly recommend checking out this place next time you want to do something new :)

It was my first time ever doing a paint and sip and let me just say, I had such a phenomenal…read moreexperience here at Faded Strokes. From when you walk in and sit down, you are taking care of by Sophia and Gabe. They made sure that you had all the paint supplies, drink and food tickets. The music was upbeat and there were performances from local artist. The instructor didn't force us to copy what he was painting, yet instead told us to paint what we had in our heart and mind, but also that we were more than welcome to follow him. While you were painting, goodies were being passed out. You weren't judged or graded on your paintings, however you did receive compliments from the hosts, instructor, and guests. If you didn't want to paint you also had the option to just come and hang out and see what was going on. So at least for next time you can see if you want to paint or just hang out again. I wish I could do this again with Faded Strokes however I live in Texas. But if you live in the DMV area, I would definitely give it a try.

It was trippy with the black lights and projections on the wall of various etherial scenes. We all dressed up in the protective suit, googles and boots. The kids were a little small for the suits, but they managed to make it work! Once inside, you can throw paint all over, stomp on the artwork with your feet (a personal favorite of my kids), and twist the painting around to have the colors spread in all directions. We were joined by a staffer the entire time who took a few pictures along with a cute video. I recommend having the staffer snap photos with your own iPhone as mine came out a little better. But I did enjoy the video. At the end of the experience, they pack up the painting in gigantic pizza boxes. The paint is expected to dry in 24-48 hours, though ours took a much longer. I recommend putting the paintings outside on a dry day in the sun to help move that along. Granted ours had a lot of paint on it, but even after 48 hours it was super wet. This is a blast. And it's located in a classic 1990s mall. The kids LOVED this mall, complete with a Spencers gift store, bowling alley and reptile interactive experience. In fact, we'll probably come back here again once the winter sets in since there are so many things here to do with kids inside.

Event: Regular Splatter Paint Session to celebrate a couple birthdays…read more The space: The Splatter Room is located inside the Manassas Mall and is not located near an entrance so give yourself extra time if you have a reservation. The studio itself is cute with tons of display pieces and splatter paint artwork for you to look at that gets you in the mood to paint! The splatter paint room had really sticky floors which kept ripping my painting boots off. The experience: The splatter paint experience itself was fun! Before heading in, you put on a big thin white suit with a hood, rubber gloves, rubber booties, and plastic glasses. Make sure to wear clothes you don't mind getting stained because the clothing they give you doesn't work well to protect your clothes. We had to spend a lot of the time cleaning up in the bathroom afterwards which definitely should have been avoided by the establishment. You get about 6 bottles of primary colored paint, a paintbrush, and little cups to mix the colors. However, you can't easily splatter the colors you mix because the paint isn't in bottles at that point. Only one paintbrush was provided with no water so we couldn't reuse the paintbrush. You have an hour to do it but you really only need about 20 minutes. They give you a big box to easily take your painting home in. The service: Terrible. We walked in and no staff member approached or acknowledged us until we said something. The first girl we interacted with was rude and impatient with us. The main guy we worked with explained all the rules and how tos in a very confusing manner and he also spoke really low which was frustrating. Our group of young women couldn't hear most of what he said and he didn't clarify well. Overall, I had fun splattering paint with my friends and will be hanging what I made but I don't ever plan on coming back here and wouldn't recommend it.
