YOU are the best. We are super glad that we had our daughter's birthday at your place. The place is beautiful itself with so uniquely and best to the taste holiday decorated that one immediately feels welcome. When Joanne told me that we don't have to worry about the birthday party of 18/19 kids and adults together for two hours, honestly I was doubting that out of our previous experiences in other fun places. But she was true to her promise. We just brought the cake and rest absolutely was taken care by them. The whole event was orchestrated with utmost articulateness. Kids painted their hearts out, they were walked through small steps starting from holding a brush to sitting to eat 🍕 to finish the art work to having a group photo together. We parents only roamed through the room and had our own relaxed time in there. Each of our guests loved the idea, loved the place, loved Joanne and the team. The food and arrangements were beyond perfect. We are looking forward to coming back to you Joanne over and over. And we highly recommend whitepine studio, Joanne Dence and her team, for the very special event experience if you really would like to remember the day...
Read moreIt doesn't get easier than this! My son celebrated his 6th birthday at a painting party this summer and my daughter just had her 8th birthday at a ceramics party. The ladies run everything from start-to-finish like a well-oiled machine from start to finish. There is the primary art activity and the gaps are filled with two or three additional activities, including face painting. There were three amazing staff members for our 11 kids and, other than floating, there was literally nothing for me to do. They handle the cake cutting and provide nearly every supply you could possibly need. We had them cater the event, which consisted of Cottage Inn cheese pizza and Sprite/water.
I've also taken an adult drawing class. I always told myself that I was a terrible artist and decided to step out of my comfort zone. Hollyanne was patient supportive and I left feeling like I might at least have potential -- which is amazing after decades of negative self-talk. It's a beautiful space and a great...
Read moreWhitepine Studios is amazing! The owner, Joanne was super nice and easy to work with for our son's birthday party. We were looking for a place to host his 8th birthday that did everything for us and this was the place! The only thing that we needed to bring was our son and the cupcakes! The price is very affordable for everything that comes in the package. We asked for a painting party that would allow the kids to paint a specific superhero, Miles Morales and Joanne's daughter put together the perfect picture for them to paint. Joanne and her staff were so patient, gentle with the kids and offered encouragement to all of them while they were painting. At the end of the party, I had multiple kids tell me how much fun they had and that this was their favorite birthday party. Most importantly, our son had so much fun and he said this was his favorite party as well! Thank you, Joanne and staff. You all are truly talented and it shows in everything about...
