There’s something extra special about birthdays…

When kids get to choose how they want to celebrate, we’re honored that so many say, “I want to go to The Painted Penguin!” 🎨🐧

No reminders. No suggestions. Just the first thing they think of when they wake up on their birthday.

Creating art, making memories, laughing with family, and taking home a keepsake they made themselves—those are the moments that last long after the candles are blown out.

Thank you to all the families who make us part of your birthday traditions. We love celebrating with you! 💙

Some of the sweetest memories are made together. 💙

Mimi and her 6-year-old granddaughter spent the afternoon painting, laughing, and creating one-of-a-kind keepsakes at The Painted Penguin. From a cozy sleeping puppy to an adorable penguin, their creativity truly shined!

Bring your favorite person and make memories one creation at a time. Walk-ins are welcome, Saturdays from 12-5!

Go ’Cats! 💜

What a fantastic team-building event with Northwestern University! Everyone put their creativity to work by painting some of their favorite Chicago landmarks, with each canvas showcasing a unique perspective of the city we love.

Thank you for spending the day creating, connecting, and making memories with us. Go ’Cats! 🏙️🎨💜

🌺 A beautiful day of creativity, family, and fun! 🌴🎨

Together with American Girl, we celebrated Linnea with a special painting experience after everyone enjoyed a delicious brunch! Guests created a colorful sunset scene complete with a surfboard and palm tree. 🌅🏄‍♀️

The best part? Multiple generations of family, from near and far, coming together to create, laugh, and make memories. ❤️

We love being part of this partnership! 🐧🎨
