Well, what kind of event are you organizing? A copainting station can either be a side activity to animate a bigger event (wedding, fund-raising, friends or family reunion...) where guests stop by and grab a brush for 10-20 minutes; or the core activity of your party (team-building event, family party...) with everybody painting for 1 to 2 hours. Read more below π
And how many people will be attending? The size of your event is the second main criteria. For smaller gathering, we recommend our Copaint Mini formats πΆ
A copainting station will add a creative and convivial touch to your event! Based on our experience, a good rule of thumb for selecting your Copaint design size is as follows:
For a small gathering (fewer than 20 attendees), almost everyone will want to participate. Choose a design with about as many squares as your number of guests!
For medium-sized events (~100 attendees), about one-third of your guests will paint. Choose a design with about a third as many squares as your number of guests! You can also choose several smaller designs.
For large events (+300 attendees), we consider that one-fourth to one-fifth of your guests will copaint. We advise providing multiple canvases β with 24 squares or 30 squares, for example.
To unveil a masterpiece by the end of your party, let the painting flow for at least two hours alongside your cocktail, brunch, barbecue, or any festive gathering!
Best for: weddings, fund-raising events, birthday parties, big reunions...
Want to exclusively dedicate your event to copainting? Let's do it! Guests pick a square, grab a seat, and paint for 15 minutes before swapping and choosing again. Don't forget to provide delicious food and drinks first π
We recommend keeping your copainting group under 25 guests β unless you're renting a large venue β everyone should be seated comfortably.
If you want each of your guests to walk out with a copainted canvas, you'll need as many designs & canvases as attendees. We recommend using Copaint Mini designs with 4 or 6 squares to keep your event under 2 hours. Reach out for a custom design package!
Otherwise,Β
with Copaint Classic designs, make sure at least 5 people can access & paint on each canvas at once, and choose designs with fewer than 30 squares
ποΈ for a party of 1-5 guests: order 1 design & canvas
ποΈ for a party of 5-10 guests: order 2 designs and canvases
ποΈ for a party of 10-15 guests: order 3 designs and canvases
ποΈ for a party of 15-20 guests: order 4 designs and canvases
ποΈ for a party of 20-25 guests: order 5 designs and canvases
with Copaint Mini designs, 2 people will be painting on each canvas at once. Order a number of designs and canvases equal to half the number of guests.
Best for: team-building activities, a fun baby-shower or bachelor(ette) bonding activity, a cosy family activity on a rainy Sunday afternoon...Β
Painting a square takes an average of 15 to 20 minutes per painter
Up to five or six guests can copaint at the same time on a single canvas (for Copaint Classic formats). The canvas should be laid flat on a table and accessible from all sides
Two to three guests can paint at the same time on a Copaint Mini format
