Greetings and Saturations, Painters!

Paint-a-Palooza is the area's only Miniature Painting-specific convention! The entire event is catered to mini painters, by mini painters! As much as we love conventions such as Adepticon, NOVA, and GenCon, mini painting typically takes a backseat to the Tabletop gaming at those events. Not so with Paint-a-Palooza!

What to Expect at Paint-a-Palooza

Get ready for an incredible weekend of painting, learning, and connecting with fellow hobbyists at Paint-a-Palooza 2026! Whether you're a seasoned painter or just starting out, our event offers something for everyone. Join us for hands-on workshops, painting challenges, dedicated hobby time, and the opportunity to learn from experienced instructors who share your passion for miniature painting.
