Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at studio@engagearts.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What should I expect at my birthday party?

During the first 15 minutes of the party, a craft of the party child's choosing will be provided for each party go-er engaging in the project. Markers and paper will also be available for use. Then, a designated party instructor will walk you through your project which is normally completed within an hour. Once all party go-ers are done their project and washed up, it is time for pizza (if requested) and then cake! After eating, any favors provided by the parents/guardians can be handed out. Lastly, the parent/guardians will pay the remaining balance for the party.

Can we bring banners, balloons, etc?

Due to the nature of the room, there is no wall space for hanging banners. Balloons and table decorations (that are not loose like glitter/confetti) are great option! Please consult your party instructor prior to placing decorations in order to ensure they will not be in the way.

Are presents opened at the studio?

No. Presents will be bagged and ready to easily grab at the end of the party.

What do you provide?

For birthday parties we offer juice, water, cake (if requested), forks, napkins, cups, plates, candles, lighter, cake knife, table cloths, one free time craft per attendee participating in the project, smocks, and all other art supplies.

What should party go-ers wear?

We understand the temptation to dress up for a party however please note that some of the supplies we use are not washable. There is always a risk of getting messy at an art studio. Close-toed shoes are also highly recommended.

My child has food allergies.

The bakery we use has cakes that are peanut free however, are still processed in the same facility as peanuts, gluten, dyes, and other allergens. If you would not like to purchase a cake through us due to allergy concerns, $20 will be taken off your party total.

Is space available for parents who want to stay?

We offer a small amount of space to the side for approximately 5-10 parents to sit.

I am unsure of my party's headcount. When do you need to know?

For canvas projects, please let us know your final headcount at least one week prior to the event. For other projects with specialty supplies, please notify us at least three weeks in advance with your headcount.

There is a rooster at the door! What do I do?!

That is our pet rooster Rembrandt! He is kinda like a dog. He has been socialized around people his whole life and is pretty friendly. He can however get an attitude, as he is a teenager. He will chase you if you run from him but only because he wants to get inside. If he is blocking the door, just let him in. An employee will make sure he gets outside again. Please be aware as you are coming in and out of the parking lot. If you leave your car door/windows open, he may try to steal your car. Please do not feed or pet Rembrant without supervision.
