Be our guest and leave the stress of keeping track of individual requests behind! Our registration system allows group organizers to share a link so each individual can place their order within the party!

Our workshops are for all skill levels! Register to come by yourself, with a group, or book a private party! To reserve the entire workshop for your private party, we require a $100 non-refundable rental fee. AR Workshop Pleasant Hills has a private party minimum of 15 people from Sunday-Wednesday, and a 20 person minimum from Thursday-Saturday.

Most of our adult projects range from $40-$70 and our youth projects range from $40-$45. View our workshop schedule for specific pricing.

We provide all of the materials, tools, and instruction. Choose your project type (wood or canvas) and your design from our Project Portfolio. Customize your project at the workshop with our designer paints and our line of non-toxic wood stains (no fumes!).

Check out our calendar for available public workshops, or contact us to book a private event! The workshop is available 7 days a week for private parties, with exception of scheduled classes as shown on our calendar.

You are welcome to bring in wine and adult beverages, small snacks or appetizers to enjoy at your private events!

Most workshops last from 2-3 hours, depending on the project. Youth parties include a 2 hour workshop time-slot. View our How It Works page for more information! If reserving a table or a private party, we will email you a link for your event that you can send out to your guests to register.

Once you reserve your private workshop date and time, you will receive a customized party link for the hostess to send out to the guests via email with instructions on registering.

About AR Workshop Pleasant Hills

Welcome to AR Workshop Pleasant Hills, owned by Sherri Hess. It was love at first sight when Sherri walked into her first DIY workshop class, and she knew she had to open a workshop of her own. She brings a long-time love of designing signs and homemade cards along with 25+ years of experience in marketing, data analysis and customer satisfaction to her workshop. There will also always be a dog and a camera nearby. She’s the proud mom of Eli, who is busy creating sweet treats to share with workshop guests. She hopes to empower others to feel confident in creating their own custom works of art, even when (especially when!) they swear they are not artistic.

Stop by and see us at 36 Old Clairton Rd near Bill Green Shopping Center and the Route 51 Cloverleaf. And make sure to follow AR Workshop Pleasant Hills on Instagram and Facebook to get the latest updates on classes, special workshops and events!
