Canvas: Paint and Mingle

New painting business opens in West Asheville. This sounds like a great idea, no signing up for a big commitment to a full semester of classes or filling out paperwork. Just show up and learn a little something about painting. That sounds right up my ally.

They are available for parties, which sounds much more appealing then the annual trek to Fun Depot with the kids.

What a great idea.
