Action Painting
in Munich
No course, no set instructions: action painting in Munich with wax, spray can and acrylic. Guided enough for a strong result, free enough for your team.
GKM at the Botanikum, IFCO in the Werksviertel: two Munich dates you will find further down in the references.
Price tiers per person, net: 15–20 €129 · 21–25 €109 · 26–50 €99 · 51–100 €89 · from 101 €79 · from 251 on request.
No pressure, no performingWhat action painting means with us
Guided, but never prescribed: your team stands in front of a blank canvas, cans and wax crayons, and nobody tells you what to paint.
That is exactly where action painting starts with us: guided enough that a picture comes out at the end instead of tipping into brown, and free enough that everyone does what they want. As a company event that means no run sheet to sign off before you book.
Anyone who has done a team event where everyone stands in a circle and plays guided games knows the feeling: grown adults treated like they are back in school. With us, that pressure falls away and the painting stays.
Nobody paints from A to Z here. There is no template, no set order, no „first red, then blue“. A guide accompanies the group so paint, surface and tool fit together. The decision of what ends up on the canvas stays with you. From €79 per person, net. The larger the group, the lower the price per head.
Prefer a wall over a canvas? The graffiti workshop for team events in Munich is the right choice if a lasting mural is the goal.
If you are looking for action painting near you, you do not need a studio slot in Munich: we come to you, to your office, your courtyard or a hall, with materials, protective gear and guides. It works the same way as an incentive event: graffiti or action painting as a reward for the team, with no travel for the group.

The craft
Behind the free painting sits material behaviour that decides the result. Three rules make sure a picture stands at the end instead of a brown blotch:
Wax does not take paint. Anyone who works with a wax crayon before the paint goes on keeps that area free. No matter how many layers come on top later, the spot stays clear. Patterns appear this way without anyone needing to be able to paint.
Spray paint cracks on fresh acrylic. If the acrylic layer underneath has not fully cured, spraying over it creates a craquelé effect: fine cracks that make the picture look years old. Anyone who has seen it once never paints without this trick again.
Paint dosing is the real craft. Too much paint at once runs together and turns dark green to brown: the moment a picture becomes a mess of colour. The guide steps in right before that happens, not after.
These three rules are why guided does not mean restricted with us. The guide takes care of the material, you take care of the decisions.
References from Munich and beyond
Seven real action painting dates, Munich first: from the summer day in the Botanikum to the single pieces from the Werksviertel. The video on the HANSAINVEST card shows what a canvas station looks like: each group at its own canvas, paint in motion, nobody just watching. The overview of all Munich references shows more dates.
GKM celebrated a summer day at the Botanikum in Munich with action painting, graffiti and abstract painting, barefoot on the grass. The pieces now hang as a keepsake in the offices of several departments.
At IFCO in the Werksviertel, the group pierced cans and sprayed one large word together: a sunny day with around 15 to 20 participants, where everyone took home a randomly drawn single piece with a passe-partout edge.
At the Future Summit in Frankfurt, action painting ran as a walk-in format: passers-by joined in spontaneously while five canvases took shape in the atrium and the HELABA lettering formed from balloon letters.
For HANSAINVEST we set up a graffiti wall and an action painting setup side by side on the pier at Hamburg's Museumshafen, right under the old loading doors of the MS Bleichen. Small groups worked on their own canvases, and all the pieces were presented at the end.
At Deutsche Bahn's headquarters, a large collaborative artwork of free motifs took shape in around three hours, with roughly 35 to 40 participants.
For Toyota, an influencer team painted action painting on canvases together with our crew at the Fotostudio Ottensen.
At the BAT Neon Afterwork by the Alster, an office space turned into a club for one evening: action painting under blacklight with neon colours.
Travel and material transport to Munich and the surrounding area sit inside the price per person, so nothing is added later. Up to 30 days before the date you cancel free of charge, after that the full sum falls due.
How an action painting team event in Munich runs
We don't talk much, we get to work early. We barely interfere with your pictures — the result should come from your hand, not ours.
A session runs two to three hours, and the order makes the difference: if everyone paints at once, the colours run into each other and turn brown. That is why your piece grows in layers, with short breaks in between. What that means for your group is laid out step by step below.
If you do not have a location yet, we suggest a surface we have worked on before. The booking still stays with you, and the same goes for side programme and drinks. We come to your own rooms as soon as you provide the surface.
On site our team covers the area with protective material, and we take liability for it. If a spot gets messy, we leave that area out. No need to change clothes: gloves and a poncho are enough.
The guide first explains the materials: spray paint, wax crayon, acrylic, lacquer. Spray paint cracks open on acrylic that's still wet, which creates a crackle effect. That's why the piece ends up layer on layer.
A guide splits the group into small units, one guide per 50 participants. Whoever is not at the canvas takes on a small two-by-two task, and the guide decides who paints when.
The piece grows in layers that need to dry before the next colour goes on: one group paints, waits, then the next one follows. The drying time in between is part of the technique, not idle time.
Whether everyone takes home their own piece or you work on one shared piece is your call when booking. With a shared piece, the layers build directly on top of each other.
At the end we clean up and the surface goes back the way it was. Whatever was created belongs to you from that moment on; nothing is shipped or delivered afterwards. You take your pieces with you right away. At our IFCO event in Werksviertel, everyone took home their own piece, drawn at random.

“We had a team event and sprayed the wall at Bahnwärter Thiel all over, with great joy. Huge fun and great instruction!”
Original (German): „Hatten Teamevent und haben voller Freude die Wand vom Bahnwärter Thiel vollgesprüht. Riesen Spaß und super Anleitung!“
“[…] 28 colleagues aged between 20 and 60, and all of us completely clueless. […] In the end we were really proud of ourselves. […] As a keepsake, Luca gave us photos taken with the drone.”
Original (German): „[…] 28 KollegInnen im Alter zwischen 20 bis 60 und alle komplett ahnungslos. […] Am Ende waren wir sehr stolz auf uns. […] Zur Erinnerung gab es von Luca noch Fotos, die mit der Drohne aufgenommen wurden.“
“[…] What surprised me was that you don't have to be an artist, because everyone gets individual attention and is encouraged to try things out. […] By the end we had created a great artwork and had a big grin on our faces.”
Original (German): „[…] Überrascht hat mich, dass man kein Künstler sein muss, denn jeder wird individuell abgeholt und ermutigt, sich auszuprobieren. […] Am Ende hatten wir ein tolles Kunstwerk kreiert und ein breites Grinsen im Gesicht.“
For 15 to 500 people
Department round or company party: we plan from 15 participants up to 500, with one guide for every 50 people, so even large groups stay closely supported instead of getting lost in the crowd.
Action painting for 20 people in Munich
One guide, one shared canvas set, 129 € per person net in the 15 to 20 tier. The group paints in stages, so nobody stands around waiting for a turn.
Action painting for 50 people in Munich

Request a quote for this sizeSmaller groups are welcome and pay the 15 to 20 tier, because travel, setup and guide are incurred once. Travel to Munich, materials and guidance are included, all prices are plus 19% VAT.
How you pay
There are two routes: book directly in the shop, or an invoice to your accounts department. In both cases payment falls due before the date, and that is the rule with us.
If something gets in the way
Up to 30 days before you cancel free of charge, after that the full sum falls due. If the weather turns in Munich, that only decides the format, graffiti on canvas or action painting in the greenhouse keeps running.
What is already included
Materials, guidance, set-up and take-down sit inside the price, along with travel to Munich. For a legal wall such as the one at Bahnwärter Thiel we obtain the permit, at no extra charge.
What does a team event in Munich cost?
A team event in Munich starts at €79 per person net, and small groups sit at €129.
The price per head falls as the group grows, and that is plain arithmetic. Travel to Munich, setup and crew happen once, whether twelve are spraying or two hundred. Two hundred spread the same fixed costs across more shoulders. The price includes travel, transport of all materials, all the paint, protective covers and guidance from our people on site. For a legal wall such as the one at Bahnwärter Thiel we obtain the permit, at no extra charge. The only thing you pay for is the location, if you do not have one. Smaller groups are welcome and pay the 15 to 20 tier, because travel, setup and guide are incurred once. All figures are net, plus 19% VAT. Up to 30 days before the date you cancel free of charge, after that the full sum falls due. We answer your enquiry within 24 hours with a concrete quote.
Where can you hold a team event in Munich?
In Munich we work at three documented locations, plus anywhere your team has rooms of its own.
The first is the legal Hall of Fame wall at Bahnwärter Thiel on Tumblinger Straße in the Schlachthofviertel. That is where anything large and permanent on a wall comes about. The second is the large greenhouse at the Botanikum, where GKM painted barefoot on grass. It is the counter-proposal, because a glass roof takes the weather question out of the planning. The third is the Werksviertel, where we offer graffiti workshops. That leaves the fourth option: we come to you. An empty office floor, an inner courtyard or an underground car park will do, if there is space, a surface that holds and power. Whether your date is called a company outing or a corporate event changes nothing here. If you are unsure whether your space works, attach a photo to the enquiry. Then we settle it beforehand rather than on the day.
What do you do in Munich in bad weather?
Bad weather does not cancel a date in Munich, it only decides whether you work at a wall or under glass.
For the covered route there is one documented location: the large greenhouse at the Botanikum. GKM spent a whole summer day there, barefoot on grass, with action painting, graffiti and abstract painting side by side. A glass roof over a lawn looks like outdoors and behaves like indoors — which is exactly why, indoors, the forecast does not decide the date. The second route runs through the material: graffiti on a wall is always an outdoor format, while the same technique on canvas runs indoors as well as outdoors. Action painting works both ways in any case. In practice that means: tell us at the enquiry whether your date can move. If it cannot, we pick a format from the start that needs no forecast. If it can, we hold the wall open and come back to you as soon as the forecast is reliable.
