They had an ice bucket to chill our drinks and a table in the back reserved for us to put any extra alcohol or snacks that we brought. They also provided us wine glasses to drink out of which was so convenient! I really liked that the host had a microphone attached to her and the volume was loud enough to hear her over the chatter from birthday festivities and other group conversations. Instructions were easy to follow along to, and it was a great birthday overall! Highly recommend!

We also were able to leave our art for a couple of hours so we could go to dinner which I appreciated.

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT have your kids party here! Rachel…read moreleft a very negative impression on at least half of the kids that attended. She is not well suited to for dealing with children, especially those who are creative and think outside the box. When the first kid arrived, she literally tried to send the parent away with "I want the parents to be gone so I can establish my authority" meanwhile the kids go to a special school for behavioral issues. After some words, she finally agreed to have the parents stay but in the back, out of line of sight of the kids. Her tone of voice reflected her totalitarian approach. Multiple kids came to talk to their parents about how mean the teacher was. I understand wrangling kids who are neural divergent can be a challenge, but there is a impactful difference between setting appropriate boundaries vs "Rule with an iron fist" smack downs. The parents can hear how she was treating the kids from the back, no wonder why she wanted them to drop and leave. One of our neighbors had a much younger kid, who stayed in the same room with the kids the whole time, told us Rachel yelled "Shut Up" several times at the kids. I regret having exposed these vulnerable children to someone who is clearly discriminatory. Please learn from my mistake, save your kids from Rachel! If you want a good place with much more talented teachers, go to ArteVino in Milburn instead, so much more friendly, and less stingy about materials. I'm not affiliated with them in anyway, other than us having a kids party there 2 years ago, just wish I went there this time also instead; lessons learned!

The owner (an art teacher) was very professional, but, made everyone comfortable and at ease. She made every last one of us an artist.

I can't wait to return with my daughter, boyfriend, or even another group of friends and family. I just love my painting and the experience I had here.

I can't say enough nice things!…read more We recently hosted our son's teddy bear making birthday party here. It was absolutely awesome!! We had a private room, which allowed the children to interact and play together. They started off with tattoos and coloring while kids were brought to another area to make teddy bears in groups of four or five. Lately, you go to a birthday party, and the kids are all just running off on their own and not playing together. Here, the activities got the children to play together, which I find so important. It was absolutely awesome! I also liked the quality of the teddy bears, clothing, and backpacks the kids got. I also can't say enough nice things about the service and staff. They were incredibly helpful in every possible way and accommodating. From the moment we walked in everything just worked seamlessly. There's also such a calm vibe that it is pleasant for the parents hanging out. The party area is open and spacious so everyone felt very comfortable. About three different families that participated in our party liked it so much that they're looking to do their kids party there as well. This place deserves even more than five stars... I don't think I've ever said that in a review!

Who knew you could be an artist after a few sips of wine? Pinot's Palette is a popular franchise…read morethat hosts BYOB "Paint & Sip" events. They have over 100 locations and host multiple classes every month. You can access the events calendar on their website. Most locations host a class almost every day that are two or three hours long. Weekdays typically have evening class times while weekends can have earlier times. They offer a wide variety of paintings like landscapes, animals, florals, and seasonal themes. They have specialty classes where you can paint a custom portrait, decorate a wine glass or tote bag, or use black light fluorescent (glow-in-the-dark) paint. Because there's alcohol involved, most classes are adults only. However, they do have a select few that are for all ages/family-friendly. Prices range from $30-$55+ per person depending on the class type and time. You can reserve your spot/s online ahead of time. If you're going with a group, you can type in the names of your party in the seating request section so you can all be seated together. We went to the Nutley location on a Friday evening. Street parking was easy to find at this time. The studio has a lively, welcoming, and social atmosphere. They provide you with all of the art supplies - paint, brushes, canvas, easel, aprons. You bring your own drinks and food, but they do supply glassware, corkscrews, ice buckets, plates, napkins, and utensils. Angie was our instructor who led us step-by-step through the painting. She was friendly, enthusiastic, engaging, and easy to follow. This was my third class and I'm definitely no Vincent van Gogh LOL... but I still enjoyed myself. Regardless of your artistic talent, this is a great way to be creative, relax, and socialize in a judgment-free space. All levels of artistry are welcome! You'll actually be surprised at how much of a masterpiece you can create by the end of class ;) Paint & Sip classes are a fun choice for a group bonding activity or celebration! They also do corporate events and private parties. If you're going to be a frequent flyer, don't forget to sign up for their rewards program! You get personalized deals, free events, priority seating, etc.

The painting they had this past Sunday (12/29) looked totally do-able for my kiddos so I signed us up that morning for a 12pm class. My kids were SO excited. I brought some snacks and kid friendly drinks with us and we got there 15 minutes early. We were the first ones there and our palettes and paints were waiting for us. They had aprons for kids and we put our stuff in cubbies. Once the other groups arrived we began painting. Our instructor (I totally forget her name and I feel so bad) was absolutely fantastic. She took her time explaining each piece of the painting and how were were going to create everything. She was very patient and answered everyone's questions. She walked around to make sure everyone was on the same page and that we had enough paint. She gave little tips that helped make the painting process easier. It was so much fun! My son had a little trouble with the painting and was getting a bit frustrated (he hated his tree) but he continued on, followed the directions, and did his best. I was so proud of him. He is a bit younger than the recommended age but he enjoys guided drawings so I thought he might enjoy it. In the end, he was happy to have a fun, finished product. My daughter had a great time. And I always LOVE a good paint and sip. I will definitely be back to Pinot's Palette in Nutley. I love that it's so close to me and they have so many events and different paintings to choose from.
