LOCATION, PARKING, BUILDING ACCESS
Our studio is located on the second floor of the Issaquah Work Lofts. The building has dedicated parking but the lot may fill quickly depending on the day. You may want to encourage your guests to arrive a few minutes early in case they need to find a spot nearby. Ample street parking is available on 4th Ave NW (along the trail) and across Gilman on Rainier Blvd N.
The Work Lofts is a secure building. When you book a party with us, we'll provide you with the key code for the call box at the main entrance. Please be sure to share this code with your guests.

PARTY SPACE
Your party reservation includes the concurrent use of two separate rooms; one is for the art project and is completely managed by our staff while the other is YOUR dedicated "party room". You'll have access to this room throughout the party and you may set it up and decorate it however you like. There is comfortable seating for up to 12 and additional stools available upon request.

WHAT TO BRING
Any sort of decoration including balloons and banners is welcome. You may also bring any food and non-alcoholic beverages (keep in mind that we do not have a refrigerator or freezer). You may want to consider bringing disposable plates, napkins, forks, cups, and table cover as these items are not provided.

WHAT TO WEAR
PLEASE DRESS FOR MESS and encourage your guests to do so as well. We do provide aprons but its often times inevitable that a loose sleeve accidentally brushes across some wet paint.

SET-UP AND CLEAN-UP
You may arrive as early as 30 minutes prior to your party start time to set up and decorate your party room. We have a handtruck available upon request for you to transport items up/down the elevator if needed. As there may be another event booked immediately after yours, we ask that you be mindful of the time and vacate the room no later than 15 minutes following your party end time. Do worry about clean-up, you may leave the mess and we'll take care of it.

WHAT DO PARENTS DO DURING THE PARTY?
Parents often choose to stay in the party room and socialize with one another while the kids are working on the art project in the other room. There's also a nice lobby area on our floor that works well for parents to spread out during larger parties. Parents are welcome to briefly pop into the art room to watch the kids paint and take a few pictures.
