what we do

ways to make
something together

Every Gallery Box experience starts as a real project people are proud to take home. We bring the artist, the materials, and the plan — you bring the group.

01

Guided Creative Experiences

An artist shows up, sets up, teaches, and cleans up. Your group just gets to make & take something they're proud of.

  • Beginner-friendly, artist-led instruction
  • All materials brought to your space
  • Indoor or outdoor, 10 to 200+ people

02

DIY Art Kits

The same projects, prepped as take-home kits — for distributed teams, resident giveaways, or people who create on their own schedule.

  • Pre-portioned materials + clear instructions
  • Great for move-in gifts and mailers
  • Pair with a live kickoff if you'd like

03

Custom Art, Branded Goods & Gifting

Hand-made pieces made for your brand or occasion — printed totes, painted coasters, keepsakes, favors, and one-off art objects.

  • Hand-printed textiles and painted goods
  • Seasonal keepsakes, favors, and gifting
  • Small runs, made by real artists

how it works

easy for you, memorable for everyone else

Most of our clients tell us the planning was the easiest part of their whole event calendar.

  1. 01

    tell us what you're envisioning

    Group size, creative interests, budget, timeline, your space, the occasion. A few sentences is plenty to start.

  2. 02

    choose + customize your experience

    Start with a Gallery Box activity and we'll shape it around your group — age range, room, goals, and the vibe you're after.

  3. 03

    sit back, we handle the rest :)

    Depending on the event: RSVPs, promo flyers, setup, materials, instruction, event photography, and cleanup.

experiences we've run

These are real workshops we've facilitated. Every one can be customized — and if you have an idea that isn't here, we'd genuinely love to build it with you.
