Studio Soirées
You are cordially invited to host your next birthday party, girl’s night out, or small celebration at ahha. Each STUDIO Soirée features a private party space, admission to ahha for up to 25 attendees, and an artist-led, hands-on activity for artists of all ages and abilities.
Space is limited and Soirées should be planned at least one month in advance. We can accommodate a maximum of 25 attendees, and require at least one adult attendee per 10 youth. Soirée planners are responsible for providing desired food/drink (wine/beer is allowed for ages 21+), utensils, and simple decorations, as well as basic clean up after the party.

HANDS-ON ACTIVITY OPTIONS
Abstract Painting on Canvas
A professional teaching artist will lead your group through a creative painting adventure. Everyone will create a unique abstract painting on canvas using the same set of verbal instructions and a variety of both traditional and non-traditional painting tools.
Photograms in the ahha Darkroom
A photogram is a photograph that is made without a camera. Photograms are made by placing objects on the surface light sensitive paper and then exposing them to light to create unique shadow pictures.
