Pinot's Palette (formerly Pinot & Picasso) first
opened for
business on May 6, 2009. Being a new concept to Houston, we started
small, with the hopes of having class three nights a week. Before long,
word of mouth spread of our new “fun night out” and we now have two fun
locations & are accepting applications for franchises!
Less than a year into operations, we made the tough decision
to
change our name. Research revealed that there was potential for legal
issues with using the Picasso name, so before growing our business any
bigger we decided to play it safe & make the change. We polled
our
customers for input (& received over 2,000 suggestions) and
have
come to be called Pinot's Palette officially since May 2010.
Much has changed since we first opened our doors, but the one
thing
that hasn't changed is our mission - our goal is to bring fine art to
the masses in a fun way, and to teach our painters the magic to create
their own masterpieces! So come --- Paint. Drink. Have Fun. with us!
