Why art

Two hours off screen.

Most team socials are a meal or a round of drinks, and the same few people do the talking. Put a canvas in front of everyone and the room changes. The quiet ones get stuck in, the loud ones get competitive, and people who sit on different floors end up laughing at the same lopsided vase.

It works as a social, a wellbeing session or a break in an away day. There’s no right answer and no prior skill needed, just two hours with your hands busy and your inbox shut.

What we run

Pick your workshop.

  • Guided painting.Acrylics on canvas, painting a still life step by step with an artist. Everyone leaves with a finished piece.

  • Drawing and pastels.Pencils, charcoal and soft pastels. Quieter and easy to fit into a meeting room or an away day.

  • A piece for the office wall.The whole team works on one big canvas, or a set that hangs together. Something to show for the day.

  • Paint and drinks.For a Christmas party or a Friday social. Bring your own drinks, or ask us to arrange them.

Team questions

How much does a corporate art workshop cost?

From £25 a head for a 2-hour guided workshop at our studio, with all materials. Workshops at your workplace, longer sessions and group pieces are quoted, so tell us what you have in mind.

Can you come to our office?

Yes. We bring the easels, paints and canvases to your workplace or away-day venue. Tell us where you are when you enquire.

How big a team can you take?

Any size. Tell us roughly how many people and we’ll plan the workshop around your group.

Does anyone need to be artistic?

No. An artist leads the session step by step. It’s about doing something together, not making a masterpiece.

Can it be a Christmas party?

Yes. A painting workshop with drinks makes a Christmas party people actually talk about. Bring your own drinks, or ask us to arrange them.

How long is a workshop?

Two hours is our standard. We can make it shorter or longer to fit your day.

Where is your studio?

Unit 5, Aire Street, Leeds LS1 4HT, 3 minutes’ walk from Leeds station. Ours is the blue door just right of the archway.

Do you run private parties too?

Yes. See our private art parties for hen dos, birthdays and bridal showers.
