Welcome to planDisney Suzanne, and thank you so much for sending in your question! It sounds like you’re exploring some of the wonderful recreational offerings at
Walt Disney World, and the Colors of Coronado painting class is such a creative way to add a little extra magic to your stay. I’m delighted to help you get a better sense of what the experience is like so you can decide whether it’s the perfect fit for your daughter.
The
Colors of Coronado painting class at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort is a two hour, instructor led painting experience held inside the Gran Destino Tower. Guests are given a canvas, paints, and brushes, and the instructor guides everyone through the painting one step at a time. The design changes monthly, but it is always something guests recreate together with the instructor demonstrating each stage.
I did a bit of research and everything I found indicates that the class is very beginner-friendly. You don’t need any artistic experience, and the instructor offers clear guidance throughout the session. The structure is similar to a guided step-by-step painting class where everyone follows along with the instructor, so guests who are new to painting won’t feel lost. The class is recommended for ages twelve and up, largely because it lasts about two hours and requires enough focus to follow instructions and work through details on the canvas. If your daughter is twelve or older, she should feel comfortable, and even younger children who enjoy art and can stay engaged for a longer period may still find it enjoyable.
Guests have mentioned that the environment is relaxed, supportive, and fun, which makes it a good choice for someone who hasn’t painted before. All supplies are provided, and the instructor is available to help if anyone needs extra guidance.
Since the class takes place inside a restaurant venue at the resort, the space is accessible, and it should be easy to accommodate mobility needs if you’ll be there with her. It’s a calm, creative activity that works well as a break from the parks or as something special to do during your stay.
Suzanne, it sounds like your daughter is in for a wonderfully creative experience, and the Colors of Coronado class could be a lovely way to add an extra touch of magic to your visit. Thank you for stopping by planDisney with your question. I hope your time at Walt Disney World is filled with inspiration, laughter, and special moments you’ll both treasure long after the paint has dried!
