Northside Area Council Paints the Town R

The Northside Area Council brought members and affiliates together for an evening of creativity, connection and REALTOR® Party support during its Realtor Party Paint the Town R event on Nov. 5 at Mellow Mushroom River City.

The paint-and-sip experience gave attendees the opportunity to create their own interpretations of the iconic REALTOR® “R” while unwinding after work and connecting with fellow real estate professionals. Jennifer Faulkenberry, owner of Artistic Ways by SassyJ, provided the paint supplies and canvases and guided participants through the creative experience.

As members painted, they shared techniques, helped one another with blending and compared their unique takes on the same image. Trivia throughout the evening added another element of fun, with two attendees winning handmade earrings created by Faulkenberry.

Mellow Mushroom River City provided a spread of pizza, salad, wings and pretzel bites for guests to enjoy throughout the evening.

With 12 members and affiliates in attendance, the event offered a relaxed opportunity to strengthen relationships, meet fellow REALTORS® and take a break from the workday. Attendees enjoyed the experience so much that many are already hoping to see Paint the Town R return in 2027.

While this marked the final Northside Area Council event of 2026, members can keep an eye on the NEFAR calendar for more opportunities to connect with the council in the year ahead.
