We handle all of it

You pick the date and the place. We bring ourselves, our products and what it takes to run the class.

  • Our artists run it

    They set up, teach every step and help each guest along the way.

  • Every paint and tool

    Angelus paint, brushes, prep and finishers. Nothing to buy or gather.

  • Enough to finish

    Each guest gets the product to complete their project.

  • A goodie bag to go

    Didn't finish in time? Everyone leaves with what they need to wrap it up at home.

Corporate team building

Team building your crew will actually remember

There's a reason people treasure the things they make. It's called the IKEA effect: we value something more when we built it ourselves. A custom painting class gives your team a shared, hands-on project, a little friendly creativity and a one-of-a-kind piece each person takes home and keeps.

  • Everyone leaves with something they made
  • No art experience needed. Our artists teach every step
  • Built for groups of 30 and up
  • We come to your office, offsite or event venue
  • We set up, run the class and clean up after

Event questions

How much does an Angelus event cost?

Every quote is custom. Price depends on your group size, location and travel, what you're painting and any add-ons. Send us your event details and we'll put together a quote.

Do you do corporate team building in Los Angeles and Orange County?

Yes. Companies book us for team building, and our team is based in Southern California. We run events across Los Angeles, Orange County, the Inland Empire, San Diego and beyond.

Why is a painting class good for team building?

Everyone works side by side on a hands-on project and leaves with something they made. People value what they build themselves, often called the IKEA effect, so the class sticks with your team long after the event.

Can you come to our office?

Yes. We bring everything to your office, offsite or event venue, set it up, run the class and pack it all up after.

How many people do you need?

Our events usually start at 30 guests.

Do you travel outside Southern California?

Yes. Our team travels across the U.S. to run classes and events.

How far ahead should we book?

Plan on 1 to 2 months ahead for events in California and 2 to 3 months ahead for events outside California.

What's included?

Our artists, every paint and tool the class needs, enough product for each guest to finish their project and a goodie bag to take home.

Do guests need to bring their own shoes?

For sneaker classes, yes. Getting the right size for every guest is too hard, so each person brings their own pair. New or lightly used shoes work best. Suede and dirty shoes don't take paint well.

Do guests need art experience?

No. Our artists teach every step, so beginners do great.

Can we paint something other than sneakers?

Yes. Groups have painted bags, water bottles, basketballs, footballs and other custom items.

Can we add extras like aprons?

Yes. Aprons, brushes, mats and other accessories can be added to your event.
