Painthouse is a creative platform where people come together through art and genuine real-life connection. In a fast-moving, screen-filled world, we create space to slow down, be present, and share real moments together.
Why we build community in real life
At Painthouse, we believe that while technology keeps us informed, community keeps us grounded. Through our creative events in Eindhoven, internationals, locals, and artists come together to share the joy of making things. Our community is welcoming, supportive, and full of talented people, creating an atmosphere where you’re encouraged rather than judged. Whether you enjoy drawing, painting, crafting, or other creative activities, our events offer a space to reconnect with your creative self and connect with others in real life.

Upcoming events
Why join our WhatsApp group?
Our WhatsApp group is the heart of Painthouse. It’s the first place where we share updates, announce new events, and communicate with our community.
More than just announcements, it’s a space where your voice matters. For our Drawing Meetups, community members can vote to decide the theme of each month, shaping the experiences together with us.
What is Friends of Painthouse?
Friends of Painthouse is our inner community chat for members who have joined at least one Painthouse event. We keep this group intentional and smaller so it stays welcoming, safe, and meaningful for everyone.
By inviting people who have already met us in real life, we create a space built on trust, shared experience, and mutual respect. This helps the group feel comfortable for open conversations, idea sharing, and genuine connection , not just another group chat.
In this group, members exchange creative ideas, support each other’s projects, and take part in ongoing conversations around art and creativity.
We also host Creative Threads Wednesday, where we share a creative prompt or topic to spark discussion, inspiration, and fresh perspectives.
Friends of Painthouse is for those who want to go beyond events, to connect more deeply, contribute ideas, and grow together as a creative community.
How to Join?
To join Friends of Painthouse chat, simply request access and send a message to our admin letting us know which Painthouse event you’ve attended. Once confirmed, we’ll approve your request and welcome you into the group.
Our current event partners
Why partner with Painthouse?
Big brands know how to reach Millennials and Gen Z on a screen, but they often struggle to reach them in the real world. Painthouse is the bridge. We offer a direct line to a diverse community of young creatives and expats who value authenticity over algorithms and real-life connection over digital noise.
We don’t do "traditional marketing." Instead, we create signature, hands-on events that integrate your business into the local culture of Eindhoven. By partnering with us, you aren’t just buying visibility; you’re co-creating a unique, tangible experience that resonates with a generation ready to engage, in person and in the moment.
Together, we can build your brand’s presence while directly supporting and growing the city’s young creative community.
