Paint Your Partner: YWCA Fundraiser
Get ready to trade your usual game night for a canvas! Join us for a hilarious and unforgettable evening where friends, family, co-workers, and couples come together to paint each other for laughs, not for perfection. We’ll provide all the paint, canvases, and a couple of creative drawing games to keep the fun (and the laughter!) going all night long.
This isn’t about skill—it’s about humor and coming together as a community for a great cause. Just bring your partner, a friend, or a co-worker and a great sense of humor and enjoy a feel-good night out. You’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind portrait and some great memories.
No partner—no problem! Make a new friend by coming solo or the host would love to join in the fun.
A portion of the proceeds from this special event will benefit the programs and services of YWCA NorthEastern NY, supporting survivors of domestic and sexual violence, racial justice initiatives, youth programs, and community empowerment efforts throughout our region.
Held on Juneteenth, this event carries an even deeper meaning. Juneteenth commemorates freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of equity and justice, values that are deeply rooted in YWCA’s mission to eliminate racism and empower women. In the spirit of connection, creativity, and seeing one another fully, this playful portrait class reminds us that community is built through laughter, shared experiences, and celebrating the unique perspectives each person brings to the canvas.
Classes at Thrifty Connections are intended for adults and suitable for individuals 16+.
Ticket Policy
All ticket sales are final. As a small business, we operate with limited class capacity. Classes require advance planning, preparation time, and the gathering of materials and supplies. Because of our limited capacity, we are typically unable to refill seats or recover the costs associated with cancellations. For these reasons, all class ticket purchases are final and non-refundable.
If you’re unable to attend, your ticket may be transferred to a friend or donated—just let us know ahead of time so we can update our guest list. Thank you for understanding and for supporting our small classes and creative offerings.
