You have to try this. Super doable for anyone. Aly was a great host and teacher. Its nice to meet people that have so much going for them. She was highly knowledgeable about coffee. Highly recommend class!

Something new and different! Had a lot of fun!

I had a wonderful time! The characters were all really interesting and the story was engaging.

It was a great experience. Very interesting facts about coffee and good coffee to taste as well! The painting was fun and easy to do.

My friends and I enjoyed the coffee, the education, and the painting! Loads of fun and new friends.

It was a great class! The painting was fun and it didn't matter your skill level. I would definitely recommend!

It was such a fun and novel experience! Who knew you could use coffee as paint? I really appreciated the instructor teaching us all sorts of fun coffee trivia while we painted. The coffee that was provided was a delicious local blend!

Great class! Easy to follow and she gives each student instruction based on their needs :)

So much fun! Do this!

THIS EVENT WAS SO MUCH FUN! I attended with a group for Halloween weekend, and it was such a great way to spend the holiday. We were assigned characters prior to the class and had a great time committing to our characters, dressing up and trying to solve the mystery.

This was really fun! The character descriptions were neat and the woman running it made everyone comfortable.

Very fun class! I was pretty proud of my creation, and got very buzzed on coffee.

This event was absolutely amazing! The character descriptions allowed for us participants to have a lot of fun with our roles!

Enjoyed this class! It was very intimate and easy to follow along with the painting. The teacher was great, very knowledgeable about coffee.

This was a fun event! I enjoyed dressing up and playing a character. The teachers did a great job moving the night along and getting everyone to participate.

This was a lot of fun and very different. The instructor was good, although she wouldn't give details on how to make coffee paint, but of course she has some for sale. You can go through a painting together with the class or do your own thing. A little less coffee tasting than I expected. I did end up buying a small paint and made a few more paintings at home.

The location chosen was perfect for the event! I attended with a friend of mine and we both had an absolute blast! We would each attend again, even if the characters/scene was the same. My only suggestion would to assign characters to people sooner, but I can see how this could be difficult if people signed up closer to the event.

This was the first time I had ever participated in a murder mystery and it was so much fun. I cannot wait to do it again. The venue was great and everyone had a wonderful time.

I had a really great time. The instructors are skilled and patient. They didn’t make us feel pressured to perform or create something specific. As a class, we created a variety of coffee-based art. In addition to creating, we got to sample and learn about coffee. Perfect for a Saturday morning outing (hungover or not). Definitely worth it!

Fun class! Cool instructors! Awesome place! Great way to start a Sunday morning.

Painting with coffee as the medium was a unique and fun experience. I appreciated that a frame was provided for our paintings, and that there was coffee to drink. There was info provided about the coffee making process while we waited for the paintings to dry and I felt that was a little slow and overly detailed. Overall, a fun experience

This was a great Sunday morning class. We were able to make a painting with frame in 2 hours and learn about coffee. The instructors were informative and pretty fun!

**Updated to say that the events staff contacted me and agreed on the location letting me know among other things that they agreed with me about the location and, " I just wanted to let you know that this is the first and the last time we would work with that venue." Knowing that this would not be the location again, I'm upping my experience from neutral to positive. Enjoy your speakeasy murder mystery!**

I have mixed feelings. This was a Christmas gift for my husband, and he loved it, we had a lot of fun. People did a great job of dressing up and playing the game in character. It was fun that everyone was involved. The negative was the location. Although it was a cool bar, it was not a private space, and it was very loud with sports playing on the TVs. We had an area of the bar, kind of sectioned off, but it was extremely difficult to hear, especially for all group announcements like a reading of a will or an update from the police, etc. I would not do this again, unless I knew they had reserved a room in the bar, or had some kind of more official way to make announcements, like a microphone. It also would have been better in a more speak easy looking space. For example, I would recommend the 2nd floor of the Galway Arms, an affordable, private space that would feel more like a speak easy and allow for hearing everything going on in the murder mystery. I'm sure there are other suitable locations as well that feel more like a speak than an open section of a regular bar. If the location changed, I would definitely recommend/do this again.

Fun and informative class. Tried different types of coffee and made a lovely picture to take home.

Super fun with friends, Get jacked up on coffee and paint with it, my kind of class. Learned new ways to brew coffee. Teacher was fun, laid back, and hilarious. Do think about it, just take the class! :)

I really enjoy this class. It was a great way to spend a Saturday morning. I recommend! The teacher was super nice and helpful.

I had the pleasure of attending the BYOB Painting with Coffee class last weekend and it was an extremely positive experience. There were two teachers who assisted with the initial sketch and painting of the design. The class was great and allowed you to either follow one of the instructors on a sketch they had chosen or you could pick your own design and they assisted with giving you tips on the best approach to finish your painting. If given the opportunity I would take this class again and highly recommend others to take this class!

Fun way to start a Saturday morning. Relaxing, no pressure, fun! Nice little demo on pour-over coffee as well.

Coffee painting is a really cool concept. I'll definitely be trying this again!

This event was fantastic! The location was perfect and the characters were spot on. The most fun part was getting to interact with all of the other characters, watch the plot unfold throughout the night, and receive secret updates on your character throughout the night. Even the murderer didn't know who they were until halfway through the evening! I'm looking forward to doing this event again in the future.

As a budding academic, I’m aware that I need to have some sort of online presence outside of Facebook; after all, universities don’t much care if you’re super active on Facebook. It’s been too long since I did any HTML, and I’m a Wordpress Embarrassment. Therefore, I set my eyes on an easy, WYSIWYG solution. That’s where the Squarespace Power Hour came in. Aly took us through the basics of creating a website using a template, various options to do so, and brushed against some of the nitty gritty details of optimizing Squarespace in terms of eCommerce and SEO. I loved that the teacher focused her class on the particular interests of the students. There were a couple of bloggers in the class, as well as a few people into eCommerce, so we got to explore all of those areas, and she was able to give us pro-tips on all of those various areas.

Squarespace, here I come!

I came in to this class already having a Squarespace blog and I wanted to learn a little more about all the platform is able to do. I learned a lot from the fellow classmates, the teacher, and from the course. It was a great class and I'm very happy I took it! I was able to implement new ideas to my blog that night!

I went with a group of four and we had a blast. Dressing up was fun and over exaggerating on our acting was even more. I was very nervous and didn't think I would remember everything for my role but once we started I was in character. Everyone was there to have fun. I highly recommend this and will add that you don't have to come with a group or with anyone because you will have no problem talking talking to people.

The instructors were very nice, funny and engaging. We had a chance to introduce ourselves to the other participates in the room and there was a lot of sharing that allowed us all to talk to each other. Best of all, there was coffee to drink and taste as well!

Great experience, definitely recommend!

This was a fun class but I didn't feel it was worth the cost. We were in a poorly lit, freezing cold basement of a coffee shop and there was minimal coffee 'education'. That wasn't my main interest so it was fine, but I would've liked something more for the price. The painting instruction was ok- I didn't care to paint a Hawaiian Woman so I chose my own portrait and I didn't get any instruction on technique. Lastly, I would've preferred an inexpensive canvas instead of just a piece of paper to paint on.. its wrinkled and warped and will need to be flattened to be hangable.

Fun class to do with friends!

Had a great time doing a guided paint class! Teachers were personable and patient. Atmosphere was very laid back & fun! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to do something different- paint with coffee!
