Weekday Walk-ins in the Paint Playground
10am-4pm Wednesday-Friday
Great for adult groups, homeschool groups, and school holidays.
How walk-ins work: $12 Admission includes entry into the room for up to 45 minutes, safety glasses (required), and a poncho (optional). Maximum of 10 people in the room at once. Children must be 8 or older to enter without a parent or guardian present. (Our infamous private 45 Minute Paint Playground Experiences can still be booked from 4-8pm, and on weekends.) Paint and canvases sold separately: Paint tray: $3 Paint cup: $5 Paint squirt gun: $5 Hand print tray: $5 Canvas options: 8x10 canvas: $8 10x10 canvas: $10 9x12 canvas: $10 16x20 canvas (black or white): $15 All canvases include a to-go box for clean carryout. You may purchase paint without a canvas if you want to enjoy painting the room. If you want more time, you may pay another entry fee to reset your time. Please follow the rules, or you will be asked to leave. The host on duty will assist with any questions and ensure the rules are being followed. Respect the host and others in the room. Do not paint on other people's canvases or on other people without permission. The host has the final say on the rules. Outside shoes must be removed prior to entering the Paint Playground. Socks, bare feet, or shoes you do not wear outside are all acceptable. You may ask for more paint or canvases at any time. Payment is taken at the end of your experience. First come, first served. Clean up is done at the end of the experience. Please, no paper products (wipes, paper towels, etc.) inside the Paint Playground. If you get paint in your mouth, on your face, etc., please alert the host, and they will get you a paper towel or wet wipe to clean it with. All other cleanup (e.g., paint on your hands) is done at the end. No gum or food in the Paint Playground.
Private 45 Minute Paint Playground
The MOST FUN thing we offer
Private appointments are available Tuesdays 11am-4pm, Wednesdays 4pm-8pm, Thursdays 4pm-8pm, Fridays 4pm-8pm, Saturdays 10am-8pm, and Sundays 10am-6pm. Click below to book.
How it works: Who: Anyone around age 2 and up! A minimum of 2 people are required to book an experience in The Paint Playground. The maximum is 12 “or so”. We have worked with kids groups of up to 36 at a time (with a bit of logistical magic). Please email us (or stop in) if you have a larger group you’d like to host at our facilities. What: Immerse yourself in a 45-minute escapade of messy painting. Grab pipettes for delightful "drippies," or give them a squeeze for an explosive "SPLAT" on the canvas. Explore decorative scrapers for diverse designs, wave your canvas in the air for some "tye-dye," or go all out with squirt guns for the most exhilarating paint experience. Paint walls, furniture, doors, windows, whiteboards, mirrors, or even each other. Each participant takes home a canvas and a carryout box. We use washable, non-toxic tempera paint. It easily washes off skin, hair, and most clothing. Plus, we provide you with a plastic poncho and safety glasses to wear. (No outside shoes in The Paint Playground, please! Socks or bare feet are welcome.) We capture the fun through photos and videos on YOUR phone for immediate memories. When: Select the time that works best for your group, on our website. Simply pay a $25 non-refundable deposit to reserve the time slot. Don’t worry, you’ll get it back when you pay at the end of your experience. (Meeting people here? Only one of you needs to do this step.) Appointments start every hour on the hour (Noon-7pm). Appointments highly recommended, walk-ins welcome when available. Where: The Craft Lab. 1334 State Route 131, Milford, OH, 45150. Why: Because it's a phone-free zone where laughter echoes all day. "Best day of my life!" and "Best place ever!" are common refrains, mostly from the kids. 😉 Ideal for mixed age groups – from toddlers to teenagers to grandparents – everyone is bound to have a blast at The Paint Playground! Pricing: Admission covers a canvas, carryout box, poncho, safety glasses, and your 45-minute slot. Small canvas admission is $26.99 per person, while a large canvas is $36.99 each. Additional canvases during the experience are $10 or $15, depending on size (carryout boxes always included). Extra paint cups are $5 each, and paint squirt guns are $5 each (each containing 200mL of paint). Additional colors beyond the initial set-up are available, and your host will guide you through the options.
