This entertaining night out provides an upbeat, casual yet creative atmosphere where Red Brick Gallery’s experienced and enthusiastic resident artists will guide you step by step through the process of recreating the party’s featured acrylic painting.

This party isn’t about creating the perfect piece of art nor is it a serious art lesson, it is about exploring your imagination and having a fun-filled evening as you get a peek into your inner creative artist. At the end of the evening, each guest will go home with the best party favor ever, your very own a one-of-a-kind art creation.

Each Arty party will be totally different than the previous one. They all will be filled with fun new friends, diverse opportunities to express your creativity and a wonderfully relaxed, social atmosphere in an inspirational gallery environment.
