Action Painting
in Frankfurt
No course, no set instructions: action painting in Frankfurt with wax, spray can and acrylic. Guided enough for a strong result, free enough for your team.
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.

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.

How an action painting team event in Frankfurt 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.
Der Guide erklärt zuerst das Material: Sprühfarbe, Wachsmaler, Acryl, Lack. Sprühfarbe reißt auf noch feuchtem Acryl auf, es entsteht Craquelé. Deshalb liegt am Ende Schicht auf Schicht.
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 afterwards. You take your pieces with you right away.

“Despite complete lack of talent in the team, we created a result in the end that really everyone is proud of.”
Original (German): „Trotz völliger Talentfreiheit im Team haben wir am Ende ein Ergebnis geschaffen, auf das wirklich alle stolz sind.“
“[…] 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.”

“[…] 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.”

Request a quote for this sizeFor groups smaller than nine or ten people we do not accept an enquiry, because the setup does not carry itself. Travel to Frankfurt, 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 Frankfurt, 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 Frankfurt. For a legal wall we might use we obtain the permit, at no extra charge.
What does a team event in Frankfurt cost?
A team event in Frankfurt 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 Frankfurt, 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 we might use we obtain the permit, at no extra charge. The only thing you pay for is the location, if you do not have one. For groups smaller than nine or ten we do not accept an enquiry, because the setup does not carry itself. 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 Frankfurt?
In Frankfurt we work at three documented locations, plus anywhere your team has rooms of its own.
In Frankfurt we have already painted at the Hall of Fame by Ratswegkreisel in Ostend, in office spaces around the city and outdoors at Hafenpark – each date picked its location depending on the group and the weather. If you already have a space in mind, tell us at the enquiry and we check whether it works. If not, an empty office floor, an inner courtyard or a rented event space will do, as long as there is room, a surface that holds and power – we handle the permit for the space ourselves, you only book and pay for the venue itself. 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 Frankfurt in bad weather?
Bad weather does not cancel a date in Frankfurt, it only decides whether you work at a wall or under glass.
The covered route runs through a rented indoor space with room, a surface that holds and power – your own office floor, a hall or, as for the HANSAINVEST date, a photo studio such as the one in Ottensen. Indoors the forecast does not decide the date, because there is no forecast to check. 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 outdoor option open and come back to you as soon as the forecast is reliable.
