Company Overview

Pinot's Palette is a leader in the Paint-and-Sip industry with over 100 locations across the United States and Canada. Our Woodbridge (Vaughan) studio has been creating vibrant, memorable experiences for our guests — from guided painting classes and date nights to kids' birthday parties, corporate team-building events, and more. We are now expanding with a second location in Oakville.

We're looking for a dynamic, charismatic individual who is equal parts artist and entertainer — someone who can guide a room through a painting, then fire up the crowd for a trivia showdown or belting out karaoke. If you love people, love art, and love making every night a party, we want to hear from you!
