Planning for more than 15 participants? Please call Hightower Art House at 269-999-7111 or email us at Hello@HightowerArtHouse.com before booking so we can discuss space, staffing, and pricing.
Reference Photos
Some projects, including Paint Your Person and Paint Your Pet, require one clear reference photo for each participant. After booking, you will receive instructions for submitting the photos.
Each reference photo should:
-
Show only one person or pet
-
Clearly show the face
-
Be well-lit and in focus
-
Avoid filters, sunglasses, or anything covering important facial features
All required reference photos must be submitted at least 10 days before the party. Late photos or photo changes may not be accommodated because each portrait must be prepared on the canvas before your group arrives.
Private painting parties are designed for guests ages 16 and older. Your date is reserved once the booking process and required payment have been completed.

Before You Arrive
Please arrive 10–15 minutes before your scheduled start time so you can check in and get settled. All necessary art supplies will be provided unless otherwise noted in the workshop description.
Wear comfortable clothing that you don’t mind getting a little paint on. Aprons are available, but accidents can happen when creativity is flowing! Please review the workshop description for any age requirements or items you’ll need to submit or bring.
Cancellations, Rescheduling & Payments
Workshop bookings are nonrefundable because seating is limited and materials are prepared in advance. If you’re unable to attend, you may reschedule your booking with at least 48 hours’ notice, subject to availability. Rescheduling requests made less than 48 hours before the workshop may not be accommodated.
When a partial-payment option is available, the first payment reserves your seat and is nonrefundable. The remaining balance will be charged according to the payment schedule shown at checkout and must be paid in full before participating.
If Hightower Art House cancels or reschedules a workshop, participants may transfer their booking to a new date or receive a full refund.
