Do we need prior art experience to enjoy the retreat?

Absolutely! Most of our retreat participants have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, from how to hold the can to mastering pressure control. We focus on a supportive, judgement-free environment where the goal is creative exploration rather than technical perfection. You will be amazed at what you can create by the end of the session!

Is the graffiti workshop safe and what gear is provided?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. We use low-pressure spray paint which is easier to control and produces less fumes. All workshops are held in well-ventilated areas or outdoor spaces. Our instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone starts painting to ensure a worry-free experience for everyone.

Where in Montreal do these retreat workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible! We can host the retreat at our partner street art locations in Montreal, or we can bring the entire setup to your office, a rented studio, or an outdoor park. We use specialized canvases or mobile cellophane walls to ensure we leave no permanent marks on the venue. Tell us where you want to be, and we will make it happen.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard creative retreat workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for the introductory history, technique practice, individual sketching, and the final group masterpiece. If you have a tighter schedule or want a full-day immersive experience, we can definitely customize the duration to fit your retreat's specific itinerary and goals.

What is your payment policy for group bookings?

Unlike many other providers, we don't require any upfront payment to book your date. You can finalize your planning with peace of mind and pay after the workshop is completed. We believe in the quality of our service and want the booking process to be as stress-free as the retreat itself. Just reach out to secure your spot on our calendar!

What happens if it rains or an artist is sick?

Yes! Montreal weather can be unpredictable, but we always have a plan. If you've booked an outdoor session and the weather doesn't cooperate, we can move the workshop to a covered or indoor location. Additionally, we have backup artists available for every booking, so you never have to worry about a last-minute cancellation from our side. Your retreat is guaranteed to go ahead as planned.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your next Montreal retreat? Because standard workshops are boring, and your team deserves something as vibrant as the city itself! 🚀

Break the ice: Nothing levels the playing field like everyone learning a brand-new skill together.
Boost morale: Seeing a giant, colourful mural that you built from scratch is an incredible confidence booster.
Spark innovation: Stepping outside of your comfort zone and using spray paint encourages "out-of-the-box" thinking.
Memorable keepsakes: Take your canvases back to the office or home as a permanent reminder of your shared experience.
Stress relief: The rhythmic "hiss" of the spray can and the focus on color is surprisingly meditative.
Authentic Montreal vibe: Connect with the local culture in a way that typical tourist activities simply can't match. 💪

Step by step

The warm-up: We start with a high-energy intro to the world of street art and the history of Montreal's mural scene.
Safety first: Get suited up in your protective gear and learn the essential "can control" techniques from our pros.
Concept sketching: Grab a marker and paper to brainstorm your retreat's theme. Whether it's a company value or a shared goal, we help you visualize it.
The tag practice: Head to the practice wall to get a feel for the paint flow. Find your "handstyle" and shake off the nerves!
Outline and fill: Start bringing your main design to life. Our artists walk around providing hands-on tips to improve your lines and color fades.
The detail work: Add those professional touches like 3D effects, "shines," and "second outlines" that make the art pop.
Signature moment: Every participant adds their own personal tag or hidden detail to the collective work of art.
The big reveal: Step back, snap some photos, and admire the massive masterpiece your team created together.

Local culture

Montreal is globally recognized as a mecca for street art, famously hosting the MURAL Festival every year which turns the city into a giant open-air museum. The culture here isn't just about paint on walls; it's about the bilingual fusion of ideas and the celebration of public space. In our Montreal retreats, we tap into this local spirit, drawing inspiration from the massive murals found along Boulevard Saint-Laurent. 🏙️

Fun Fact: Did you know Montreal was one of the first North American cities to actively fund public murals to combat illegal tagging? This turned the city into a legal playground for some of the world's most talented artists! ✨

Whether we're setting up near the historic Lachine Canal or in a hidden alleyway in the Mile End, the city's unique European-meets-North American aesthetic provides the perfect backdrop for your creative journey.
