Your employees should expect a fun, relaxed, and completely judgment-free creative experience!
Here's how it typically goes:
Arrival & Setup (5-10 min): Employees arrive to find everything ready—supplies laid out, aprons available, and a welcoming atmosphere. Time to grab a seat and settle in!
Introduction (5-10 min): Cici introduces herself, explains the project, and sets the tone: no experience necessary, no mistakes allowed, just creativity and fun.
Guided Creation (60-150 min depending on workshop): Step-by-step instruction makes it easy for everyone to follow along, while still leaving room for personal creativity. Cici circulates to offer individual support, encouragement, and tips.
Social & Relaxed Vibe: Participants chat, laugh, and bond with colleagues while creating. Music plays softly in the background. The atmosphere is supportive and lighthearted—think more "creative hangout" than "classroom."
The Big Reveal: At the end, everyone steps back to admire their work (and each other's!). There's always a shared sense of accomplishment and surprise at what they've created.
Take It Home: Each employee leaves with their finished artwork, a sense of pride, and memories of a unique team experience.
Bottom line: Employees should expect to relax, connect with colleagues, and discover creative abilities they didn't know they had. Even the most skeptical participants leave smiling!

Cici's Studios isn't just about painting—it's about connection, well-being, and creating meaningful experiences for your team.
Here's what sets us apart:
Experience that matters: Cici has years of experience teaching adults specifically, and understands that most participants arrive stressed, uncertain, or convinced they "can't do art." Her teaching style is warm, encouraging, and focused on the experience rather than perfection.
It's about more than the art: We've seen how creative workshops reduce stress, build trust, and bring colleagues closer together. Every workshop is designed with your team's well-being and connection in mind.
No pressure, all support: This isn't art school—it's a judgment-free zone where everyone succeeds. Whether someone is a seasoned painter or has never held a brush, they'll leave feeling accomplished and proud.
Tailored to you: We don't believe in one-size-fits-all. We customize workshops to match your team's personality, goals, and the vibe you're going for.
We handle everything: From supplies to setup to cleanup, you don't lift a finger. Just book the workshop and show up—we've got the rest.
