Three Little Birds Outside My Window

Yes — Three Little Birds Outside My Window is one of our most approachable paintings. Absolute first-timers finish this one looking great. Darcy walks you through every step, and the whole group moves together so nobody falls behind. Worth knowing: Paint Nite events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.

A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Darcy is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at The Old Spaghetti Factory - Arden, a real local spot, not a studio. Paint Nite invented this format in 2012 and has sold more than 10 million tickets. The trade-off is honest: lighting varies, it can get loud, and the person at the next easel is a stranger. That's the point. It's more of a night out than a class.

Darcy is a real local artist based in Sacramento — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 5 out of 5 guests who've painted with Darcy say the instruction was amazing. Lynette Y. said: 'Sign up now! You won’t regret it. No skills needed. Great instructor. Lots of fun!'

The Old Spaghetti Factory - Arden is a local venue in Sacramento — a real local spot, not a dedicated painting studio. Paint Nite events happen at places like this by design — venues with character, regulars, and a bar. It can get lively. That's what makes it a night out rather than a class.

Yaymaker is Paint Nite. We brought both brands together under the Paint Nite name — same artists, same events, same format we invented in 2012. More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you used to attend Yaymaker events in Sacramento, you're in the right place. Welcome back.

Your ticket to Three Little Birds Outside My Window includes the canvas, all the paint you'll need, the use of brushes and an apron during the event, and step-by-step instruction from Darcy. Drinks and food are ordered separately from The Old Spaghetti Factory - Arden — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

The Old Spaghetti Factory - Arden's doors open at 11:30 AM, the event starts at 6:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 5:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Darcy starts the painting.
