Paint and sip businesses have really taken off over the past decade. A few of the big names in this space, like Painting with a Twist and Pinot’s Palette, actually launched in the 2000’s. But the concept has moved into many more communities thanks in large part to franchise programs over the last several years.
If you’re unfamiliar with how paint and sip studios operate, here’s the basic gist. Most of these businesses host private parties with groups of friends, family members, or business colleagues. The business owner supplies a canvas and paints to each attendee, along with an example piece of art that everyone can use as inspiration for their own work. As for the sip portion of the event, most venues have a BYOB model, but some do offer bar service or retail options as well.
