Company Profile

Company Overview

Paint Nite is a new concept of blending two timeless pastimes, artistic painting and drinking cocktails, as a way to draw patrons into local pubs on a slow night with a unique opportunity to socialize and be creative. The 2-hour Paint Nite painting parties are held daily with 25+ people in attendance who follow the step-by-step instructions of one master local artist from blank canvas to masterpiece.

Paint Nite is about making art accessible to people who don’t consider themselves artists or creative in any way. For many customers, Paint Nite will be a novel and memorable experience, as many have not touched a paintbrush since elementary school.

Using a technology platform and a strategic marketing plan, Paint Nite enables local artists and venues to plan, promote and sell out creative social painting events on a massive scale. The online event registration service makes it easy for the local community to discover events and share the events they are attending with the people they know.

The win-win-win:
Artists are able to profit from their passion for the arts and entertaining their local community.
Venues are able to convert unused space on a slow night into a profit center and engage new customers with a unique, memorable experience. Consumers are able to connect with friends, engage and find joy in the creative process, and walk home with an authentic piece of art that they created, proudly hang in their home/office and admire for years to come.

Every month, hundreds of local artists host experiential art events at venues, typically local bars, for a unique live experience in over a 100 cities across the world.

Headquartered in Boston, Paint Nite was founded in March 2012 by entrepreneurs Daniel Hermann and Sean McGrail.
