UNLEASH YOUR INNER ARTIST!®
Are you ready to go underground and ArtJamz at the metro area's coolest new arts complex – Art Underground in Crystal City? Your one-hour of studio time incoudes unlimited use of smocks, easels, acrylic paints, brushes and art materials such as stencils, graffiti markers, sponges, tape and glitter. Plus, our friendly art-trained Creative Enablers are always on hand to provide tips, guidance and encouragement. Canvases cost extra and range in pricea and size from (Mini- 8 x 10), (Small, 12 x 16), (Medium 16 x 20), or (Large 20 x 24). You can walk-in anytime during business hours; however, reservations are recommended. We encourage you to paint whatever you want – you are not restricted to paint the same thing like some kind of structured class that starts and ends at a set time. Need inspiration? Wine and beer are not served at our All Ages ArtJamz, but our ArtJamz music mix, Honest Tea, art books, graffitied walls, Pinterest page and friendly art-trained Creative Enablers will keep the creative ideas flowing – all you do is paint and have fun. Seriously. That's it.

BRING

WEAR
We have smocks! However we are painting in a live studio environment, so wear things you don't mind getting paint on, ergo, leave the Louboutins at home, ladies. We use water-based acrylic paints, but still, we don't want any nice stuff to get paint on it … although, that would be very fashion forward if you did. Paint splats are so in!!
TAKE YOUR CANVAS WITH YOU
We get asked a lot if people can leave their canvases at the studio. Unfortunately, you can't. We ask that you plan to take your canvases with you. Leaving them at the studio is not an option. If you do, we will paint over it and re-sell it as "recycled canvas." We do have carry bags available for .00 that you can use to carry your canvas out and we have blow dryers at the studio to help with drying.
VOUCHERS AND GIFT CARDS
Please present your gift card or voucher in digital or print format. We prefer digtal though. Please note that we don't accept vouchers, coupons or gift cards at private events.
RELAX
No one expects you to paint the Mona Lisa. In fact, there is a painting underneath the Mona Lisa, meaning even da Vinci at one point thought "this stinks, I think I'll paint over it." Some people come with ideas, pictures, concepts, etc. some people free style. Up to you. Either way our Creative Enablers are there to help you execute. There are no mistakes, just "evolution." Think of it more as "designing" a canvas as opposed to creating a painting.
GET INSPIRED
We have lots of sketch and art books at the studio and you can access our PINTEREST PAGE for ideas … or just ask our awesome Creative Enablers, who are always there to help guide you.
