Every student succeeds — not just the talented ones

Blank canvases intimidate kids. Pre-drawn canvases change that dynamic completely. When the design is already on the canvas, every student follows along and produces a result they're genuinely proud of. The goal shifts from drawing skills to color choices, technique and creative expression.

Canvas Paint Party canvases are used by art camps, after school programs, summer camps, museum education departments and community arts organizations across the country. The activity runs in 60 to 90 minutes and can be facilitated by any adult — no art training necessary.

Designs that fit your program

Camp directors consistently report that the canvas paint session becomes one of the most requested activities on the calendar — because every participant finishes with something they want to show off.

Flexible pack sizes for any group

Order 6, 12, 28 or 40-canvas packs depending on your group size. Choose Canvas Only if you already have paint supplies, or order our complete Paint Kit that comes with everything students need. Our canvases stack flat and ship fast, so you can plan sessions on short notice.

Common questions

Do guests need any painting experience?
None at all. Every canvas arrives with the design already hand-drawn in bold outlines — guests just follow the lines and fill in color at their own pace. First-timers finish with paintings they're proud to hang.
How fast will my order arrive?
Most orders ship within 1–3 business days from New Jersey, with tracking. Custom orders begin production after you approve the design preview — so if you have an event date, tell us before ordering and we'll confirm the timeline. Rush options may be available.
Can you create a custom design for my event?
Yes — and it's free. Send us your theme, photo, logo or idea and we'll hand-draw it on canvas. You'll see a preview of the design before we ship anything.
What group sizes do you support?
Anything from a single canvas to 400+ guests. Packs come in 6, 12, 28 and 40-canvas sizes, with bulk pricing that improves as your group grows.
What's the difference between Canvas Only and Paint Kits?
Canvas Only is just the pre-drawn stretched canvas — perfect if you already have supplies. Paint Kits include the canvas plus acrylic paint, brushes, a palette, a disposable smock and a color guide. Sizes: 8×10 (kids, shorter events) or 11×14 (adults, longer sessions).
Do you work with schools, churches and organizations?
Every week. We accept purchase orders, provide W-9s and invoice institutions. Schools, churches, youth programs, senior centers and nonprofits nationwide use our canvases for their programming.
