Creative Workshops
For Remote, In-Person & Hybrid Teams
Most corporate team building feels forced. Bad Art Club is different.
The simple act of stepping away from screens and creating with your hands is transformative on its own. Bad Art Club elevates this experience with fun, thoughtful prompts that deepen connection and feed the soul.
Each Bad Art Club workshop is built around one core activity designed to meet your team where they are. Surrounding it are creative warm-ups that spark connection, ease nerves, and get everyone engaged. We always make space for sharing and celebrating the terrible art you make together.

Real Feedback From Meta's Cross-Functional Team
“I wish every team I worked with was required to do something like this. Too often we're defensive in sharing ideas, or calling things out. There are folks who don't think they're good enough, who are afraid to speak up, who are hesitant to work with other roles, and this is like the ultimate ice breaker.”
“It was honestly one of the best team activities we've done in a long time.”
“Ruining each other's art was the absolute best—it felt vulnerable but constructive. Like breaking down an artificial barrier, or like when you know someone well enough to give brutally honest feedback. It would be such a great exercise to do before a brainstorm.”

Whatever Fits Your Team’s Vibe
1. Clay & Connections
Air-Dry Foam Clay
In this workshop, your team builds the trust they need to do their best work together. They get to experiment with novel, playful communication, which inspires authentic expression, breaks down walls and fosters genuine, lasting connections.
For example, imagine your team constructing an entire world out of clay together—assigning names, roles, and personalities to abstract blobs—while collaboratively telling an ever-evolving (nonsensical) story.
This theme works especially well for onboarding new hires, integrating newly reorganized teams, and bonding hybrid teams who need more than Zoom meetings to feel connected.
Here’s the impact:
Psychological safety that translates to better collaboration, faster team integration, and workplace culture where people feel safe to take risks. Plus better retention—people stick around when they feel genuinely connected.
Drawing On Paper
2. Ink & Insights
In this workshop, teams gain communication confidence, deepen empathy for user needs, and reignite innovation through playful risk-taking.
Imagine a team that actively collaborates instead of working in silos. It sounds ridiculous, but your team drawing terrible portraits of each other actually builds the communication confidence and creative problem-solving skills that drive real business results.
This theme works especially well for Product, Design, CX, and Support teams needing stronger cross-functional collaboration, or any team looking to boost meeting participation.
Here’s the impact:
Clearer, more candid communication in meetings, deeper insight into customer needs, and the kind of creative problem-solving that comes from truly embracing imperfection.
3. Pastels & Possibilities
Oil Pastels
In this workshop, teams celebrate major milestones, form lasting memories at off-sites, and feel genuinely appreciated by leadership. Through this opportunity to reflect and celebrate, your team reinforces the culture and momentum that got them here.
Nothing says "we crushed it" like creating collective art that's surprisingly meaningful. Through activities like painting pieces of a giant puzzle (that only reveals itself at the end), teams shake off seriousness and literally see how their individual contributions create something bigger together.
This theme works especially well for leadership planning memorable off-sites, anyone wrapping up intense project cycles, or managers who know their people need to feel genuinely appreciated—not just thanked in Slack.
Here’s the impact:
Boosted morale, stronger sense of shared accomplishment, and tangible reminders of what your team can create when they work together. Plus that collective puzzle becomes actual office art that reinforces your team's story.
