NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The Little Mermaid is getting another chance to escape life under the sea, but this time it's onto a canvas. The original and largest paint-and-sip franchise, Painting with a Twist, is teaming up with Disney's The Little Mermaid to offer three limited-time experiences to sip, paint and reconnect with a classic.

Through the partnership, Painting with a Twist has created artwork inspired by The Little Mermaid. Across the country, 320 studios are expected to offer Ariel-themed classes between February 8 and March 3, 2019 to celebrate the release of the movie on DVD.

With three unique canvas options, guests can find that perfect painting to celebrate a childhood favorite. Moms looking to share a Disney classic with their daughters can enjoy a Mommy and Me Little Mermaid painting, while the kids-at-heart can remember a simpler time with a glass of wine, while participating in two adult class offerings. More information on how to find a local class near you is available at https://www.paintingwithatwist.com/pages/little-mermaid/.

"We are thrilled to be partnering with Disney to offer The Little Mermaid-themed events to our guests," said Painting with a Twist CMO Katherine LeBlanc. "For years, Ariel and her adventures have captured the hearts of both children and adults. This is a wonderful opportunity for our guests to enjoy a Disney classic in a brand-new way."

At Painting with a Twist studios across the country, guests come together to share a social experience with friends, art and the option to BYOB. The company's charitable arm, Painting with a Purpose, raises money for local charities through monthly events at all locations and hit the $5 million-dollar mark in funds donated this year. The Little Mermaid is available on Digital February 12 and Blu-ray™ February 26.
