WHAT OTHERS SAY: “I knew it would be fun, but it was A LOT more fun than I anticipated. There were some vulnerable moments — our partners shared what they thought they couldn\'t do — but they left feeling like they COULD be creative. So I think it challenged our own thought process of what is possible.” - Shannon Garcia, VP of Operations, Starbucks WHY IT WORKS: When you partner with us, you can be confident that even the most art-resistant member of your team will leave with a sense of camaraderie, a feeling of creativity, and a painting to be proud of!OUR STORY: In 2010, my daughter, Jackie, and I started The Paint Bar in the Greater Boston area to share our love of art and engaging others. We were the first paint-and-sip business in the Northeast! Ten years later, we’ve intentionally kept our approach “hands-on” by working with each client personally to ensure the highest quality for every event.
