Canvas Birthday Parties:  

Cost: $12 per child, plus $50 facility fee. (must have 8 to have an in-studio party... if you are wanting a paint party for less than 8 kids, we offer an at home party pail, click on that page for more info.). If you have less than 8 painters at your party, we will still have to charge for the minimum amount of 8.

Parties last 1 and a half hours.  

(see canvas design choices below)

  • We will sketch out a design you choose on each canvas and lead the guests through the painting, step-by-step. We provide aprons too! Look through our gallery to choose an image, and call the studio at 601-450-2787 to book a party. We do not book birthday parties over social media inbox or email inbox. You must call the studio to book the party, we will then charge the $50 facility fee to hold your spot on the calendar. If you call the studio and get the answering machine, just leave a message! Ms. Lissa is a high school art teacher during the school day, so she heads to Bristles for after school hours, and someone will return your call. Our normal weekly hours during the school year is M, Tue, Thurs 4:00-6:00. You will get a return call during those times. If during summer time, it may be during one of our camps, and that schedule is on our summer camp page.

  • Cost: $50 deposit for hour and half party. Plus $12 for each child that attends. Important: you must have 8 guests to host a birthday party, and we can seat up to 18 guests comfortably. If less than 8 guests attend, you will be required to pay for 8.

  • When you call to book your party, you will be asked the date, time, and what type of party you are wanting (canvas or pottery). If a canvas party, we will need to know which design you chose from this website. We cannot come up with a custom design unless given 3 weeks notice and we will decide if it is a design that is actually doable for children to complete in about an hour!

  • We DO NOT provide food items, but you are allowed to bring in whatever cake, food, decorations you want. We have one table set aside for food if you wish to use it (4ft long). Don't forget a tablecloth, paper products, and cake cutter! As far as decor goes, we have a pretty cute studio! No need to decorate! Most people just decorate their food table, and call it a day!

  • How to Book Your Party: Call the studio at 450-2787 to pick a date and time for your hour and half party. (you must have 8 painters) Choose what you want your child and guests to paint. Everyone needs to paint the same image, unless you offer separate image for different genders/interests. Once we put you on the calendar, you will have to come in and pay the $50 facility fee to hold the spot, or we will email you an invoice that allows you to pay via a link. The $12 per child is due at the time of the party, once we know how many painters showed up!
