OUR COMPANY
Our company, A Palette of FUN Paint Parties is owned and operated by Gail Simpson.
It is a B.C. business, based in White Rock B.C.
While Paint ‘n Sip parties have been in the news for a long time — the history of our A Palette of FUN Paint Parties is a classic business where a hobby becomes a fun career. We didn’t invent the model! It is believed that paint parties were first pioneered in New Orleans in 2007 — two women started running them to bring people together after Hurricane Katrina.
We Are Locally Owned and Grown
We are a locally, owned and operated small B.C. startup business with venues in the South and East Fraser Valley. What sets us apart from other painting ventures, is that we are about fun and making your painting experience a memorable one. We want to introduce - or reintroduce - you to art in a non-threatening or intimidating way . We provide one-on-one tips and hands on training during our painting parties. We are proud that we are creating a vibrate community of painters at each session, many have gone on to pursue the craft in further detail. We encourage interaction with our instructors and the other painters who, together with you and your friends will make this experience a very fun, open and supportive event.

Testimonials
Ever heard of paint nights? You certainly don’t have to be Van Gogh or even creative…just have a good instructor who provides step by step instruction. Kudos Gail Simpson from A Pallette of Fun. It seems I have progressed from a barn door to a mediterranean door. Maybe leaves will be next?? Who knew painting could be so much fun! It helps you to focus, takes your mind off things for a few hours, and even therapeutic and relaxing. Something fun to do with family or friends. Pure enjoyment! ~ Debbie
Gail is an excellent instructor. With Gail’s knowledge, guidance and patience I learned to express myself through painting. I hosted a private party where all the guests had a great time. I continue to attend classes because with each session I learn new techniques. ~ Muriel
Think you can’t paint?? .. Wrong!! Gail’s classes are not only so much fun and delightful..they are transforming. You actually do have an “artist” inside of you. Gail brings that out along with being encouraging, enthusiastic, and such a gentle delightful teacher.
I wished I’d discovered this part of “me” years ago.. thanks for bringing the artist (ahem) out in me!! Not only the classes, but I had a b’day party. What a hoot and SO much FUN!! Many had never NEVER held a brush before and now their masterpieces hang proudly on their walls.. thanks Gail. ~M. B.
