If you’re looking for something different to plan with your friends or significant other, besides dinner and a movie, check out ART on the BRIX in Golden for a paint night! You don’t have to be the next Picasso in order to create a beautiful piece of art and, maybe best of all, you can sip on wine as you paint to get your creative juices flowing! Here are some commonly asked questions from ART on the BRIX:

What is an Art on the Brix class like?
Art on the Brix provides a laid-back, social atmosphere in a way that inspires all ages and types of people to relax and get creative. No experience or talent is required. Our local artists guide all of the classes with easy-to-follow, step-by-step group instruction, plus everyone gets individualized attention and leaves with their own completed original artwork. Enjoy painting, crafts, wine or beer, music, games and surprises in our low-stress, fun classes that are playful and light-hearted encouraging you to just follow along or go outside your lines.

Do I need to sign up in advance?
Our classes have limited seating so signing up in advance is highly recommended. You can register online via our calendar or give us a call to reserve your space. Always feel free to drop us a line or drop in to see if there is any last minute availability. We try our best to accommodate everyone!

What is the cost of an Art on the Brix class?
Our classes start at $25 per person with most classes priced at $35. Pricing does vary depending on the type of class and its offerings. All prices are listed on our CALENDAR and CLASSES pages.

What is included in the price?
We supply everything you need including a canvas, paints, brushes, aprons and the local artist instructor. All classes include your first glass of wine or beer, snacks, music, games, fun and surprises! It's no surprise at all that we clean up the mess.

How long is an Art on the Brix class?
Classes are typically 2 hours long with plenty of entertaining breaks. Select classes
run 3 hours.

What do I wear?
We practice safe-painting with supplied aprons, but suggest you wear clothing that is not your nicest. Dress comfortably and remember splatter happens.

What time do I need to arrive for a class?
Try to arrive 10 to 15 minutes before the posted class start time. So you can check-in, find your seat, get your supplies and start sipping.

Do you serve alcohol?
Yes, and all classes include your first glass of wine or beer. We offer a nice variety of wines, beers and non-alcoholic beverages. Wine and beer range from $3-$5 each. You must be 21 years or older with valid ID to purchase or drink wine and beer.

Can I BYOB?
We are sorry but No. It is a legal thing.

Can I bring in my own food?
We provide free snacks during all our scheduled classes, and request no outside food be brought into the studio at these times. Private events can arrange to bring in their own food and non-alcoholic beverages.

Do I have to paint the featured artwork?
You certainly can paint anything you want although the instructor will be teaching
the featured painting. More often people will make the featured painting their own,
reflecting their personal flare and style.

If I come with a group, can we all sit together?
Seating is first come, first served, but if you call us in advance, or let us know when registering for a class, we typically can make sure your whole party stays together.

If I come with my significant other do we have to paint the same image?
Although every painting turns out differently, we can make suggestions so that both artworks compliment each other and you don't end up with two of the exact same paintings.

Are children welcome?
Yes! We are kid-friendly, although most classes are attended by adults. We do offer Family Sundays which is more geared towards younger artists. Friday and Saturday Party Nights are adults-only. Keep in mind, wine and beer are always available during every class We also offer kid's Summer Camps, Winter and Spring Break Programs.

When do new class schedules become available?
We do our best to publish the schedule at least a month in advance.

Do you offer any discounts?
10% discounts are offered to groups of 15 or more who register as a group for a scheduled class, college students with valid IDs and senior citizens 65+.

Where do I park?
Art on the Brix is conveniently located adjacent to a free multi-level public parking lot on the corner of Jackson Street and 12th Avenue with additional street parking also available. See our MAP for clarity.
Do you offer handicap access?
Yes. We are located on the ground floor with no stairs and handicap accessible bathrooms.
