Maybe your first grade art teacher failed to recognize your ‘Picasso potential’, but you can still unleash your creative spirit from time to time at the world famous Paint Along NYC studios.

It's surprisingly easy how first time painters can create wall worthy pieces under the expert Paint Along instruction. These canvases make the perfect gift for family and friends; whether its a birthday gift, a wedding present or something for the Holidays, the recipient will absolutely love the thought and effort you put into making him/her your very own work of art.

Yelpers LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Paint Along - a 5 star rating on 16 reviews can't be wrong:

• "My girlfriend and I tried out the All Ages Starry Night. We ended up with two drastically different paintings of the same image, drank through a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon in the process, and had a blast. We've been on several fun dates--Rock Climbing, Pottery-Molding, Boating, Jewelry-Making--but this one tops my list of favorites. Get on their website and pick out a painting you like--you're guaranteed to enjoy yourself!"

• "I now know why people paint. It is extremely cathartic. You get to narrate the story with all your imagination and fantasies....The instructor is easy to follow and always willing to help. And although I am a novice, I created a half-decent painting. I really enjoyed splashing colours on a blank canvas. A great first date spot and a fine evening with a fellow painter. I will be back for another class."
