Paint Your Pet

Join us to create your own, one-of-a-kind acrylic pet portrait on canvas, done in a colorful style inspired by American Pop Artist Andy Warhol. No artistic experience is necessary!

We begin with a short lesson about painting techniques with 3 different brush types. Then, we'll walk you through each step of the process - from transferring your pet's image to the canvas with graphite, to painting the background, to painting the main features of your pet, to the final finishing details. We will use vibrant, non-toxic acrylic paints. All art materials will be provided.

Before the class begins, we will need you to email us a high-resolution digital photo of your pet. Uncropped, full-body shots or face shots with uncluttered backgrounds work best. Also, pictures with good contrast work well. Please email pandamai@pmbq.com if you have any questions about photo choice and guidance, Mai is happy to help you.

Candle Making with Manly Candles

Cost: $40

Join us at Pup Plaza for a paws-itively fun candle-making experience with our friends at Manly Candles!

Get ready to unleash your creativity as you craft your very own custom candle with expert guidance from the candle pros at Manly Candles. Whether you're a candle connoisseur or a total newbie, this hands-on class is designed to be a blast!

You'll mix and match from a selection of premium fragrance oils to create a scent that’s uniquely you. Each candle will be poured into Manly Candles' signature 8 oz whiskey glasses, using all-natural 464 soy wax and organic cotton wicks—because quality matters!

 But that’s not all! You’ll also design a custom laser-engraved label to make your candle extra special. Want a specific image or phrase? Send your request to Manly Candles—details will be provided in your confirmation email.

The fun takes place indoors at Pup Plaza, 14408 Union Ave., San Jose, CA

 Well-behaved pups are welcome to join, but keep in mind we’ll be working with hot wax—so no tail-wagging too close to the candles!

Doga

Cost: $15

Your Doga instructor will guide you and your pup through a 60-minute yoga practice and provide moments throughout the class for you to bond, reward, and breathe with your dog.

You will be encouraged to share your energy with your dog and explore the natural bond that exists between you and your canine best friend. Doga will provide you an opportunity to learn from your dog how to be in the present and have fun, while our dogs may pick up the calm and focus of our practice, eventually becoming more relaxed and comfortable with sharing a space with others.

A minimum of two participants is required to hold the class.

Proceeds from activities at Pup Plaza support Silicon Valley Pet Project's (SVPP) life-saving work. SVPP is a nonprofit organization, tax ID number 47-2361690. svpetproject.org
