This looks like so much fun and after a glass of wine or two...who knows how unique your painting will turn out!!!!

 

We are allowed to bring food, but beer and wine sold separately. 

What? Release your inner Picasso with Pinot Grigio

    Hi all,
    Anyone want to either car pool to our meet at the Riverside Station in MA? I'm going to call the Paint Bar-but I think it may be close to the Newton T stop - Dee, I know we talked about car pooling and perhaps meeting somewhere-but if I do go to the Riverside station I'm going to take 84 to the Mass Pike-instead of 95. but if you still need to car pool let me know-we can discuss where would be best to meet.

    Hi all-sorry I made a mistake-just spoke to the Paint Bar and they are not near the T-oops...but still if anyon else is looking to car pool let me know-I live in Meriden-the women from the Paint Bar did say though to bring quarters as there is metered parking on the street near them

    Hi Everybody,
    I'm also looking to carpool. It kind of snuck up on me. I'm coming from Wolcott. Is there still room?

    Just signed up. If anybody is still looking for a ride (or a rider) in the Hartford/Rocky Hill area. Let me know. I don't mind driving, but my car is a coupe (tiny back seat). Also, I'm flying home Friday (from Arizona)...so there's the remote possiblility I may have travel problems, and not be able to make it.

    Matt I'm looking to carpool aswell. And possibly my friend heather. Let me know where and when you are leaving. I can meet you.

    @Dee: Roses are red, violets are blue. BLB events are better, when they are with you ;)

    @Diedra (and possibly Heather): I?m aiming to leave around 10 AM from my apartment in Rocky Hill (exit 23 off I-91). Google Maps have me about two hours from the bar, so I?m adding an hour of fluff for traffic, lunch, finding the place, parking, etc. Mindy has my cell number, but I?ll email it to you along with directions to my apt complex (tis really easy).

    It's a "Remembering the Caveman" reference. It means anyone I'm happy to see. In that specific context it referred to Karen, because that's what I told her I'd do next time I saw her ;)

    http://www.i-cant-believe-im-not-bitter.com/2010/march/de...

    Now I'm all embarassed because the joke was missed. So I'll keep my head down, my mouth shut, and not make eye contact with anyone while standing in the corner....for about five minutes :D
