Monroe, Georgia — on a crisp early-December evening at the MWCA gallery, brushes tap and conversation hums as neighbors and visitors gather for a creative night out. Paint pARTy with Jennifer • 12/1 is a two-hour, beginner-friendly workshop where participants paint a fluffy Highland cow decked in a Santa hat and a strand of twinkling lights. All acrylic paints, brushes, canvases, and guidance are provided; you arrive ready to make and leave with a finished canvas. Jennifer Dominy of Jennifer’s Art Studio, LLC leads the session, bringing approachable instruction and a lighthearted pace that suits complete beginners as well as regular hobbyists. Classes max out at ten people so Jennifer can offer one-on-one adjustments while maintaining a social, chat-friendly atmosphere. The workshop is held after regular MWCA hours in the gallery’s front lobby on the main level, easy to access and centrally located in downtown Monroe near the Walton County Courthouse. Practical details are clear: arrive a few minutes early, the class runs 6:30–8:30 PM on December 1, and the session is restricted to guests 21 and older. If the door is locked, ring the doorbell; instructors will let you in and settle you at your table. The evening stands out because it pairs hands-on technique, composition, color mixing, and layering, with room to personalize details so no two finished Highland cows are identical. That makes the class equally good for someone who wants a comfortable creative night out and for a traveler who wants a small, authentic local experience without a long time commitment. The structure is simple: arrive and settle, meet the featured painting, follow step-by-step instruction, personalize your details, and take home your finished canvas. Bring a friend, bring your holiday spirit, and consider bringing a small beverage if you’d like to BYOB; glass and food policies are the participant’s responsibility. Classes are planned monthly so featured paintings change over time, offering repeat visitors fresh projects and seasonal themes. This workshop also supports the local arts ecosystem—participants often browse the gallery show, chat with volunteers, and leave with a deeper sense of what makes Monroe’s creative scene active and inviting. Whether you’re staying in downtown Monroe or passing through Walton County, book early; with only ten spots the class fills fast around holidays. On arrival you’ll find welcoming instruction, good lighting for photographing your work, and the immediate satisfaction of a handcrafted holiday keepsake. Reserve a spot through the booking link, arrive relaxed and ready to paint, and expect to leave with more than a canvas: a warm evening connected to local artists, a new skill you can build on, and a festive piece that captures a little bit of Monroe’s seasonal cheer and creates lasting, memorable memories.
