Neon Sip and Paint in Baltimore: Glow-in-the-Dark Art Class

Your canvas glows the moment the lights go dark.

A neon sip-and-paint class in Baltimore where you recreate a street-art-style dinosaur with thick graffiti outlines and a crown using fluorescent colors that reveal their full vibrancy under blacklight. An instructor guides you step by step through the 90-minute session. No painting experience is required, and snacks and water are provided. Bring your own drinks (21+ with valid ID), your friends, and your energy.

The experience

What makes this different from a standard paint night is the blacklight itself. You're not just painting. You're watching your canvas transform as the room goes dark and the fluorescent colors come alive in ways regular paint never does. The design is bold and graphic (a neon dinosaur with thick graffiti outlines and a signature crown), so the structure is there to follow, but the colors and your own hand make it yours. The instructor walks you through every step, so whether you've never held a brush or you paint regularly, you'll finish with something worth taking home and showing off.

The setup is built around having fun with people you came with. Bring your own bottle (the space is BYOB for anyone 21 and up with a valid ID), and the venue provides snacks and bottled water so you're not thirsty halfway through. All the painting supplies (brushes, paints, the canvas) are included. The session runs 90 minutes, which is long enough to get into the work without feeling rushed, and short enough to fit into an evening out. The space is wheelchair accessible, and kids from age 8 can join in, so it works for a date night, a birthday group, or just a crew looking for something you can't do anywhere else in the city.

Top questions

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Youth (8 to 15 years). Children under 8 can't be included in the booking.

Do I need to know how to paint to do this?

No. The instructor guides you through every step, so complete beginners finish with a finished piece. Painting experience isn't required, just a willingness to follow along and have fun.

What exactly am I painting?

A street-art-style neon dinosaur with thick graffiti outlines and a crown. The design is set, so you're recreating it rather than starting from scratch, which keeps the pacing even for everyone in the room.

Can I bring my own drinks?

Yes, the class is BYOB. You'll need a valid ID if you're bringing alcohol, and you must be 21 or older. The venue provides snacks and bottled water, so you're covered on those fronts.

How long does the whole thing take?

The class runs 90 minutes from start to finish, which gives you time to paint without rushing and still have your evening ahead of you.
