Where groups meet in Chiang Rai

Our workshops in Chiang Rai are typically held in accessible areas, allowing for ease of travel for participants. We often utilise spaces within or close to the main city centre, making it convenient for groups staying near the popular night bazaar or the clock tower. For larger groups or those seeking a more secluded environment, we can arrange workshops in areas just outside the immediate city, offering a tranquil setting amidst the northern Thai landscape.

We focus on locations that are easy to reach from key points within Chiang Rai, such as the areas around the Old City wall or near the Mae Fah Luang Bridge. We ensure the workshop environment is safe, spacious, and conducive to creative expression, suitable for all ages and group sizes.

Activities for groups in Chiang Rai

Our graffiti workshops in Chiang Rai are perfect for a wide range of groups looking for an engaging and creative activity. Companies can opt for a unique team building experience, fostering collaboration and innovative thinking outside the usual office environment. Schools can incorporate a workshop into their curriculum, offering students a hands-on art experience that explores contemporary culture.

Families and groups of friends will find it an enjoyable way to spend time together, creating lasting memories.

We can also assist in recommending suitable venues for post-workshop refreshments or celebration.

Step by step

  1. Intro and safety: We start with a warm welcome and a quick briefing on how to use the equipment safely. You'll get suited up in your protective gear so you stay clean while getting creative. ✨
  2. The basics of b-lining: Our pro artists show you the "can control" basics. You'll learn how distance, speed, and pressure change the lines on your canvas.
  3. Sketching your vision: Grab a marker or a can and start sketching your design. Don't worry, we’ll help you refine your ideas into a "graffiti-ready" layout. ✏️
  4. First layers: Start filling in your piece with bold colors. This is the stage where your artwork starts to take shape and cover the background.
  5. Mastering the outline: This is where the magic happens! We'll teach you how to "cut" lines and add sharp outlines to make your graffiti pop off the surface.
  6. Adding shadows and highlights: Learn how to create 3D effects. A little bit of white highlight and a dark drop shadow go a long way in street art.
  7. Details and tags: Finalize your masterpiece with small details, patterns, and of course, your very own artist tag to sign your work. 🏷️
  8. Photo session: We’ll take professional-looking photos of you with your art. It’s the perfect memory to share with friends or on social media! 📸
  9. Clean up and wrap: We handle all the messy stuff. You leave with your skills (and maybe your canvas) while we take care of the rest.

Reaching your Chiang Rai workshop

Arriving for your graffiti workshop in Chiang Rai is straightforward. The city does not have a main railway station; instead, it is served by long distance buses from various parts of Thailand, arriving at the Chiang Rai Bus Terminal 1 in the city centre. From there, local songthaews, tuk-tuks, or ride-hailing services can easily take you to the workshop location.

For those travelling by car, Chiang Rai is well connected by major roads such as Highway 1, which runs north to south. Parking facilities are generally available in the city, especially around commercial areas or designated car parks. The nearest airport, Mae Fah Luang Chiang Rai International Airport, is located just a short drive north of the city, making it convenient for participants flying in. Taxis and airport transfers are readily available from the terminal.

Local culture

Chiang Rai's street art scene

While Chiang Rai is more renowned for its traditional Lanna art and iconic temples like Wat Rong Khun and Wat Phra Kaew, there is a subtle but growing appreciation for contemporary art forms, including street art. You might occasionally spot murals or artistic expressions on walls around the city, often reflecting local culture or social commentary.

The city's art scene, though not dominated by graffiti, embraces creativity. This provides a fascinating context for our workshops, allowing participants to explore a modern art form within a city rich in artistic heritage. It is a chance to add a contemporary splash to a city steeped in history, contributing to its evolving creative landscape.
