What is the ideal group size for a creative retreat in Tauranga?

Our Tauranga creative retreats are perfect for teams of 5 up to large groups of 100+. We pride ourselves on flexibility, meaning we can scale the experience to suit a boutique leadership retreat or a massive cross-departmental bonding day. If you have a specific group size in mind, just let us know and we’ll tailor the artist-to-guest ratio to ensure everyone gets plenty of hands-on guidance.

Do we need any previous artistic experience to participate?

Not a bit! Our professional street artists are experts at coaching people who haven't picked up a spray can since primary school. We guide you through the basics—from nozzle control to layering techniques—so that even the most 'non-creative' person walks away impressed by what they've built. It's all about the process, the laughs, and discovering a hidden talent you didn't know you had.

Is the spray paint safe and do you provide protective gear?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. We generally use low-pressure spray cans which are much easier to handle and produce less fumes. If we are working indoors, we ensure the space is well-ventilated, or we can set up our mobile 'pop-up' walls at any of Tauranga’s stunning outdoor parks or reserves.

How long does a typical graffiti retreat session last?

A standard retreat workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for an introduction, technique practice, and the final production of your collaborative mural. If you’re looking for a full-day experience, we can easily extend the session with deep-dive creative brainstorming or 'art-battle' competitions to keep the energy high throughout the day.

Can you host the workshop at our chosen venue or office?

Absolutely! We love traveling around the Bay of Plenty. While we have awesome partner locations in Tauranga, we can bring our mobile setup to your office, a rented venue, or even a local park (with council permits). Whether you're in Mount Maunganui, Papamoa, or Bethlehem, we bring the entire art studio to you so you can focus on the fun.

What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor retreat?

New Zealand weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered. If the forecast looks dodgy for an outdoor Tauranga session, we can usually move to an indoor backup location or use our specialized marquees. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we almost never cancel. We always have a 'Plan B' to ensure your team building event goes ahead rain or shine!

The experience

Why settle for a standard retreat when you can do something truly memorable? A graffiti workshop is the perfect way to level up your team's bonding experience in the Bay of Plenty. Here’s why it works:

Unleash hidden talent: You’d be surprised who in your team is a secret Picasso once they get a spray can in their hand! 🎤
Total collaboration: You're not just painting solo; you're working on a massive joint project that requires communication and shared vision.
Stress relief: There’s something incredibly therapeutic about the 'hiss' of a spray can and the freedom of large-scale painting.
Tauranga vibes: Take inspiration from our beautiful coastal city and channel that energy into your artwork. 🌊
Zero risk: With our 'pay after' policy and backup artists, your event is in the safest hands in the industry.
Lasting memories: You can even keep the canvases to hang in your office as a permanent reminder of your epic day. 💪

Step by step

The warm-up: We kick things off with a high-energy intro by our pro artists, covering the history of street art and safety basics.
Design session: Your group brainstorms a theme or a 'big picture' concept that reflects your team's goals or the Tauranga vibes.
First spray: Everyone gets a practice board to learn nozzle control, how to make thin lines, and how to fill large areas without drips.
Sketching the mural: Our artists help you scale up your ideas onto the main canvases or wall using 'doodle-grid' or sketching techniques.
Adding the colour: This is where the magic happens! The team works together to layer vibrant colours and create depth in the artwork.
The finishing touches: We teach you how to 'cut back' edges and add sharp highlights to make the piece really pop.
The big reveal: We step back, peel off any stencil tape, and admire the massive masterpiece you've created as a collective.

Good to know

Our retreats are designed to be stress-free and fully inclusive. Here’s what you can expect when you book with us:

Duration: Customizable sessions from 1.5 to 3+ hours to fit your schedule.
Group sizes: We cater to everything from small executive retreats (5+ people) to large corporate events (100+).
What’s included: High-quality spray paint, canvases or mobile walls, protective suits, gloves, and professional respirators.
Safety: Lead by experienced artists with a focus on a safe, controlled environment.
No Stress: No upfront payment required—you only pay after the workshop is complete! 🏆
