Frozen Falls

Frozen Falls is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Create! paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Create! will help you turn any mistake into something intentional. 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. Create! is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Bent River Brewing Company, 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.

Yes — Frozen Falls is a Paint Nite favourite for girls nights in Rock Island. Everyone paints their own canvas, so there's always something to laugh about at the end. If you're planning a bachelorette party or a larger group, private events of 10+ get reserved seating and a custom experience.

Create! is a real local artist based in Rock Island — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. In Rock Island, 8 out of 10 Paint Nite guests rated their instructor as amazing. Jennifer H. said: 'The host was great and the artist is always fantastic! She is a great instructor and has great ideas for art.'

Bent River Brewing Company is a local venue in Rock Island — 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. 64% of guests who've attended events at Bent River Brewing Company rated the atmosphere highly.

Frozen Falls is a winter painting — cozy seasonal vibes for a great night out.

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 Rock Island, you're in the right place. Welcome back.

Your ticket to Frozen Falls 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 Create!. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Bent River Brewing Company — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Bent River Brewing Company's doors open at 3:00 PM, the event starts at 6:30 PM. We suggest showing up by 6:00 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Create! starts the painting.

You can reschedule your ticket to any other Paint Nite event up to 8 hours before this one starts. Rescheduling more than 48 hours in advance is free; within 48 hours of the start time there's a $20 fee per ticket. You can't reschedule within 8 hours of the start time, but if an emergency comes up, reach out to our customer service team and we'll do our best to help. Event tickets are not refundable, but your reschedule codes never expire, so you can redeem them whenever it suits you. If Paint Nite cancels this event, you'll receive a full automatic refund.
