About the CRI

Lauren Pantos is a Brooklyn based Visual Arts teacher and Certified Ross Instructor (CRI). Following in the footsteps of Bob Ross, she loves nothings more than to share the Joy of Painting!

Q: Will Lauren actually be in the studio with us?

A: YES! We will all finally be able to paint with Lauren in the very same room!

Q: Can I bring in my own alcohol like other paint classes?

A: Unfortunately, no. We will have other non-alcoholic refreshments and light snacks available, which are included in the cost of the ticket. You are also welcome to bring in your own snacks.

Q: I have my own art supplies. Can I bring in my own and not pay for the kit supplies?

A: While we welcome you to bring your own painting supplies if you'd like, we are unable to offer a discounted ticket for doing so. We want to make sure everyone is working with the same materials.

Q: How do I get the supplies after I buy my ticket?

A: We will have the supplies in our studio on the day of your class.

Q: Where do I park?

A: We have a free lot at our building located at 140 Lower Terrace (lot entrance is on Charles Street).

Q: What should I wear?

A: We will be providing aprons for everyone to borrow for the class, however, you may want to wear clothes you don't mind getting paint on.

Q: What are your health and safety requirements?

A: Everyone will need to fill out a health screen survey and receive a temperature check prior to entering the building.

All attendees must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. People are considered fully vaccinated two weeks after their second dose in a two-dose series (Pfizer, Moderna), or two weeks after a single-dose vaccine (Johnson & Johnson).

No exceptions will be made to the vaccine requirement, and a negative COVID test will no longer be accepted for entry.

Attendees will need to present photo ID and proof of vaccination in the form of your physical CDC Vaccination Record card or your digital vaccination record before entering the building. New York residents can easily register for your digital vaccination record for access on your mobile device. Photographs of vaccination cards will not be accepted.

We’ve installed an environmentally friendly clean air filtration system throughout our building to attack microbes both in the air and on surfaces. This system uses an innovative Dry Hydrogen Peroxide (DHP™) to fight viruses, bacteria, mold, odors, and insects.

There will be enhanced disinfecting of high-touch surfaces. Countertops, railings, restrooms, and seating areas will be cleaned and disinfected thoroughly.

We will continue to closely review public health guidelines and update our safety protocol as necessary. Staying informed is our best prospect for remaining safe as we move forward with navigating through the pandemic. Buffalo Toronto Public Media is dedicated to staying up to date with current guidelines to ensure a safe experience for all.
