🎨Paint your Date
You don’t have to know how to paint to create a portrait worth putting on display. For a fun evening out join us for Paint Your Date night. This class is always a fun evening out for you and favorite person. And if you feel a bit uneasy send us a pic of your favorite person and we will do the light sketch for you so all you have to do is fill it in with colour. Send you picture at least 3 days prior to your class to our Art Coordinator at negrecia@rogers.com. All materials will be supplied. So all you need to bring is your creative mind.
🎨Paint your pet watercolor painting
We all know you have the cutest fur baby in the world, so why not spend an evening creating a watercolor painting of your beloved pal? This is a beginner-friendly class—yes, absolutely beginner-friendly. Please email a photo of your fur baby to our coordinator at negrecia@rogers.com so we can send it to one of our artists to pre sketch your image for you. This way all you have to do is enjoy and paint. Ideally, the photo should be a portrait of your pet’s precious face, which will help us create the best possible artwork within the time we have.

🎨Crochet Scrubbies
Learn the basics of crochet while making your very own reusable kitchen scrubbie! This beginner-friendly workshop is a fun way to try something new, and you’ll leave with all the materials you need to keep crocheting at home — including your own crochet hook. Start now and make a little something for everyone on your Christmas list! Handmade gifts are even more special when you make them yourself. Learn to crochet. Make something useful. All materials will be supplied. So all you need to bring is your creative mind.
🍷Pasta making 101
Making your own pasta is both simple and incredibly satisfying. In this 3 hour class, we’ll teach you the basics while making three different types of pasta, and each guest will take home a vacuum-sealed bag of each variety. Is it a class or meal prep? Technically, it’s both! We’ll be using all-purpose flour and a manual pasta machine, and we’ll also demonstrate rolling techniques— but for efficiency, we’ll use a rolling machine. If you’re interested in a gluten-free version, please contact us, and be sure to let our Coordinator know of any existing allergies prior to the event.
🍷Squid Ink Pasta
Step into the kitchen for a truly memorable evening and discover the elegance of squid ink pasta. This hands-on date night experience invites couples to roll up their sleeves and create dramatic, jet-black pasta dough from scratch—beautiful, bold, and surprisingly simple to make. Together you’ll learn how to roll silky sheets of pasta, craft delicate hand-filled ravioli, and cut stunning long noodles such as linguine or tagliatelle. Along the way, we’ll share tips and techniques used in professional kitchens so you can recreate this impressive dish at home for family and friends.
