The Painted Penguin

The Painted Penguin At The Painted Penguin, we specialize in parties and events. We host ceramic and canvas painting parties in store, and we can come to you.

Get creative with color, create art you can share, and make jewelry that’s uniquely you. You can do all that, and have a little fun too, here at The Painted Penguin! With ceramic painting and beading, you and your family will be able to channel your artistic visions into a project you can take home and admire -- a lasting reminder of your talent! These are handmade gifts from the heart: a one-of-a

-kind ceramic piece painted with love, a canvas painting you can hang on the wall, or a handcrafted bracelet you’ll be proud to wear. Enjoy our interactive entertainment that’s all about having fun and making something that’s truly unique. We’re all about bringing the fun to the community, too, and we’d be thrilled to host your next birthday party or work team-building event. Now that's an event no one will want to miss!

What better way to celebrate turning 12 than with a graffiti party? Lizzy and her friends spent the day spray painting, getting creative, and making colorful memories together. This celebration was packed with fun from start to finish!

Thank you for celebrating with us at The Painted Penguin. We loved being part of your special day and helping your crew create one-of-a-kind masterpieces!

What a creative way to celebrate the end of the school year! 🎨✨

The 8th graders explored the life and impact of Malcolm X, then expressed their perspectives through painting. Meanwhile, the 7th graders brought their thoughts on Animal Farm to life with bold spray-painted artwork inspired by the themes of the novel.

We loved seeing these students combine literature, history, and creativity to make powerful artistic statements. Thank you, Learn 9, for spending your field trip with us and sharing your ideas through art!
