A guided neon painting experience designed to teach you how to create the illusion of glowing light using acrylic paint!
About this Event

This is not a “paint whatever you want” night.

You’ll be led step-by-step through professional blending techniques, contrast, and glow effects, using a predrawn canvas so you can focus on skill, not stress.

Participants will choose one of three curated neon statements, each with its own visual energy and mood. You’ll leave with a finished piece that actually looks like it glows.

Come for the vibe. Stay for the technique. Leave with confidence.

  • All painting materials
  • Black predrawn canvas (choose your statement at checkout)
  • Step-by-step neon glow instruction

No prior painting experience needed.


Participants will choose one of the following statements for their neon experience:

  • Lifted (clean, modern, and bold)
  • Do The Thing (motivational and directive)
  • Glow From Within (soft, reflective script)
