Professional, oil-free Hypo-allergenic Paint

Our professional artists can accommodate any theme or unique request for your party or corporate event.  If you can imagine it, we can make it happen: full and partial face applications, or smaller details on faces, hands and arms. 


Our Face Painting Services include a guarantee that we won't leave until all guests interested are painted, using only professional-grade, oil-free, hypo-allergenic face paints, sanitized brushes and a colouring station for those waiting in line for their turn. 


$125 per hour for one face painter

Painting 10-12 Faces per Hour


$175 per hour for two face painters 

Painting 20-30 Faces per Hour


Our professional body painting artist can bring your vision to life for live events, photoshoots, film and more using oil-free, hypo-allergenic professional paint. Models being painted must supply their own personal protective garments for sensitive areas. We only work with persons over the age of 18 for full body painting projects involving nudity - no exceptions.

Additional Hours $75/hour

Art Party FAQ´S

We're all big kids aren't we?

Our art parties are designed with flexible options to accommodate all ages, abilities and interests. The hardest thing you have to do is decide what project you'd like to create at your next art party! 


Although we're well known for our painting parties, we also offer a variety of other party options, including: Pottery, Sculpting & Water colour, Splatter Painting and Pottery Wheel Parties. We also offer Stained Glass Make & Take Parties for ages 14+. 


Our Party booking system is set up for in-studio parties, and we prefer to host in our space where a mess is celebrated. 

However, if an in-home or on location event is preferred, we’re happy to accommodate. Submit your booking through our online system and add a note requesting an on location event, providing the address. We will confirm by email. 

On location party services include 1 hour of art making & instruction for kids or 2 hours of art making and instruction for teens/adults. It is up to the party host to ensure table and chair space for all participants. 

There are no additional fees for in-home parties within Haldimand County. A small travel fee of $35 applies for parties in Niagara, Hamilton, Burlington, Brantford and the GTA. 


We try to make booking a party easy. Go to our website, and review the Parties Page. There you will find visual examples and prices for groups as small as 4 people. 

All party bookings require a booking fee, and depending on the size of your party, additional fees may be due on the day of the party.

If you do not see a date/time you want listed, please reach out to us by email, we may be able to accommodate your specific request.  


All our art party activities are 1 hour for kids plus an additional hour for party fun, and 2hrs for adults.


If you choose to have a party in our studio, you can arrive 30m early to set up and we create art as soon as all your guests arrive. 


You can book additional time in the studio if you want to host a longer party.


Our base price for most of our party options is $149-$199 for 4-6 people. The price increases based on number of participants, add-ons, additional time in studio and travel fees 

If you book a party for 8-10 kids, but the day of, only 6 show up - you only pay for the kids who showed up. We never charge you for no shows.
Additional fees may apply for travel, or extra time in studio. 


You only pay for the party guests who participate in the art making activity.


If you'd like to invite others, please feel welcome. We ask additional guests to remain in the lounge while the art making portion of the party takes place, to help reduce distractions. 


Yes!, When you book an art party in our studio, you have the option to book additional time, after art making, for whatever you like, at an additional cost of $25/hr.

We have a lounge and table space for food, drinks, gifts and other party fare.
