New Paint Night Location to Open in Nashua

Paint and sip. Have you been bitten by the paint night bug yet? It's all the rage right now, where you attend an art session where an instructor walks you step-by-step through creating your own masterpiece while you sip wine or beer and enjoy a night out with friends and stranger. This experience is coming to Nashua with a new venue called Art With a Splash, which is scheduled to open Aug. 15. Read more about this new shop on Nashua Patch.
