Paint and Jrink

I had the great opportunity of having my birthday party here. Overall everything was exceptional.
Customer Service. I actually had trouble with contacting a few galleries about a paint party, but definitely no issues here. They contacted me back in 24 hours or my request for information. They then went to answer everything I needed to know. In addition, they were able to make a personalized theme for me and make it easy for all my guest to pay online. They were wonderful! On the day of the event the crew helped the guest and gave a great experience for everyone getting their paint on. They were great at communication and friendly!
Atmosphere. My birthday theme was street art, this location definitely went right along with it. Everything about this location is contemporary and just fresh and creative scenario. We had access to two rooms. The room where the paint happened (which could accommodate around 20 to 25 individuals) and the front room to set up for your food, drinks, and just having a more party vibe as well. It was wonderful.
For this location all it takes is for you to book your event in advance with a down payment of 105, which is the payment for 3 guest. Individual guest, with a minimum of 10 is $ 35/​each, which you and/​or guest can purchase in advance or at the event. This pays for instruction, canvas, and paint. For events you are allowed to bring in your own alcohol and food and set up any way you like! This location is all about customization and I love it. They also allow you to pick your music theme… I gave them a genre and they seriously channeled every song I love! They are musical mind readers and gave that extra touch I loved.
Parking. I actually was concerned about parking for my guest at first, being so close to the French Quarters on a Friday night, but it actually turned out to not be a problem. Everyone was able to find nearby street parking and paid parking. So it shouldn’t be too many issues in that area.
I would definitely do more events in this location. They are great for small to medium groups for different type of events, including paint parties for kids.

First off you guys you have to find parking. But don’t let that one bad issue turn you away from this fun experience. Yes, it was an experience. I really enjoyed myself. The vibe is really positive and fun. The owner was very welcoming and he understood that everyone there were first time painters. He gave us kind of a mini-​tutorial about using the different types of brushes and the effects they have on your drawing and the canvas itself. I really appreciated that he was willing to sit through and give everyone advice when needed on how to perfect their Masterpieces. Even though there were alcohol and food many of us still got our masterpieces finished. I felt like a real artist!!! I am looking forward to going back in the new year because I had too much fun!

These guys couldn’t have been more accommodating. My girlfriend decided to surprise me with this painting event and even suggested we paint out in the park. Paint and Jrink had never done that before but loved the idea and were all for it! Unfortunately it rained pretty hard that morning and we couldn’t paint outside. So we stayed inside and knocked out a couple of paintings while listening to jazz, drinking champaign, and even put on some football since it was Sunday. Jarren (I’m probably butchering the spelling of his name) was the consummate host! He doesn’t micromanage your canvas skills and he will offer any advice you ask for without hesitation. Overall great experience!

We had SO much fun. We were celebrating a few birthdays. The guys were so helpful and it was easy to book. The space is really cool. Book early though because it’s popular!!!

I arrived with a friend and a bottle of chardonnay to find an enchanting, airy studio adorned with some of the artist/owner’s amazing art. The hosts are professional yet warm and — effortlessly it seems — create an ideal atmosphere for a relaxing and fun night out. While I was there for quality girl time, the painting tutorial is a fun date night as well.
The instructor is infinitely talented but doesn’t make you feel like a d-​bag for painting like a drunken five-​year-​old. In fact, he helped my friend and I with a few adjustments on our own paintings and encouraged us along the way. I felt like a female Basquiat, but I think that was through the encouragement of the chardonnay.
The space is sizeable and has a wonderful energy to it, fabulous for hosting private events as well. I loved supporting and highly recommend this minority owned spot.

I had a great time here! Went for my friends birthday the guy was really nice and helped us a little so our painting wouldn’t look too bad lol. But it was a great atmosphere had a good time can’t wait to go back!

I had a BLAST at Paint and Jrink! I’ve attended a few paint and sip venues. But i can honestly say this was the best one thus far. This is my second time doing business with them. The first time was a date with my fiancé and the last time i booked a party for 30 people. Both times were exceedingly above board. The staff’s hospitality was phenomenal and they went above and beyond my expectations. Thanks Paint and Jrink. I will DEFINITELY be back!!!

This was a duplicate review so I thought I would edit it as I couldn’t figure out how to delete it My group was 5 people. My 68 year old mom who has never painted before, my teenage daughters, 13&16, my foreign exchange student, Guido age 17 from Italy (yes, that’s actually his name). Everyone had a great time!!!
If I did this again, I have spent some time in Merigny. I think this area had a fun Bohemian vibe and is under appreciated

I am one of the troop leaders for our Girl Scout troop. As such I am always on the look out for activities that our girls can participate in and love. I contacted Paint and jRink seeking a session for our girls and they were happy to do it.
The location is easy to find, the neighborhood is safe, and above all the actual gallery is endearing.
We were greeted by smiling faces, a sunlit room, and jazz music. I had chatty, shrieking girls and neither instructor seemed jarred by it.
I found that the sketches that were picked and the pace of the class were age appropriate for the different grade levels and age ranges that make-​up our multi-​level troop.
Overall, I was impressed with the environment of the gallery and it’s adaptability to our needs. I plan to book adult events with them as should you.
