We booked Tote & Paint for a corporate event, and Yelena made the entire process seamless. From the moment we first connected until she and her colleague left the venue, Yelena was fantastic.
She does a fantastic job in promoting creativity & inspiration, and does so in a wonderfully welcoming way.
I would highly recommend Tote & Paint for any such events and would love to host them again!

We booked Tote and Paint for a tote bag painting activity for our holiday party, and it was a hit! Yéléna was awesome—super friendly and made it easy for everyone to get creative. The whole setup was smooth, the materials were great, and the vibe was fun and relaxed. It was the perfect way to do something different and connect as a team. Everyone left with their own newly created tote bag, possibly a little surprised at their own creativity! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a unique, creative group activity!

Had a fantastic experience with Tote and Paint hosting a tote bag painting workshop for 20 people at our office. Yéléna was responsive, organized, and very easy to work with. The workshop itself ran smoothly from start to finish and everyone had a great time! Highly recommend for a fun and well‑run team event! Thank you!

Thank you for making our event so memorable! […]

Tote & Paint with Yéléna was such a great team-building experience! Booking was super easy - she was incredibly responsive and helpful in answering all my questions and making sure everything was tailored to our needs. The event itself was so much fun, even for those of us who aren’t super artistic. We all walked away with a tote bag we actually liked and some great memories. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fun and creative group activity!

This was such a special and fun event! If you're looking to host a creative team activity, I highly recommend this one. Yelena was amazing - super flexible and responsive from the start.

We handle the experience. You enjoy it with your team.
Your team paints a tote bag together. No one needs to know how to paint. We show each step. Everyone keeps the bag they made.
“I can’t draw.” Good news: you don’t have to. Stencils, lettering templates and an inspiration wall get everyone started.
The quiet ones. Painting gives people something to do with their hands. Conversations start on their own.
Mixed teams. Interns paint next to VPs. Finance sits with Sales. Titles disappear for two hours.
English or French. We run the session in either language.
Scroll to watch. Tap a bag to play it.
Tell us about your team. Estimated headcount, date and location.
Get your quote. We confirm availability and send clear pricing.
We come to you. We bring everything, set up, facilitate and clean up.

I am Yéléna. I started painting during COVID to slow down. Now I bring that to teams in Toronto and Montréal. You talk to me.
Not at all. We provide inspiration, stencils and guidance throughout the workshop. Everyone can create at their own pace, no artistic experience required.
Most workshops run for 90 minutes to 2 hours. We arrive beforehand to set up and handle cleanup afterward, so your team can simply show up and enjoy the experience.
Just tables and chairs for your team and a little extra space for our materials.
We host workshops for both small teams and larger groups. Share your estimated headcount when requesting your quote and we’ll recommend the best setup for your team.
That’s completely normal. You can start with your best estimate and confirm your final headcount closer to the event. We’ll let you know about any pricing changes before your final payment.
We’ll send you a simple summary with the price, what’s included, and your event details, so you can easily forward it to your manager or decision-maker.
No problem. We can help you find a suitable venue based on your group size and preferred area.
