There will also be award-winning cocktails, desserts and special options for kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tickets are $48 for adults and $23 for children 12 and under. The restaurant will be limiting groups to a 90-minute table time due to anticipated high demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIY Candles, Canvases and Crafts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Painting With a Twist<\/a>, located at 8010 McEwen Road in Dayton, is inviting mothers and children 7 and older to a freeform painting event. Unlike other parties at this and similar studios, there will not be formal instruction for what to create, but will instead allow visitors to draw inspiration from works in their gallery. A staff artist will be available to help if requested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Painting With a Twist encourages patrons to bring food and beverages with them. Prices vary by choice of canvas size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
