Artisan Tile Making Team Events with Taller Gingell in Barcelona

Set within the vibrant urban fabric of Barcelona’s Sants-Montjuïc district, Taller Gingell offers a distinct, hands-on twist on team building through its Artisan Tile Making workshop. This two-hour session welcomes large groups to dive into the tactile world of ceramics inside a professional studio, where the hum of the kiln and the scent of wet clay set a creative tone far removed from the typical corporate retreat.

Barcelona, a city renowned for its bold architecture and rich artisan legacy, provides the perfect backdrop for this unique experience. Participants receive expert guidance to craft not one, but two ceramic tiles—one to keep and another to contribute to a community mural that celebrates local creativity. This shared artwork is a living symbol of collaboration, connecting visitors with the city’s artistic pulse beyond the studio walls.

The session requires no prior experience, making it accessible for all skill levels, and encourages relaxation, conversation, and imagination in equal measure. Clay preparation, mold shaping, and decorative techniques are all introduced, offering a primer on artisan ceramics while fostering group interaction. The finished tiles undergo drying, glazing, and two kiln firings, with participants able to collect or have their pieces shipped post-trip.

Taller Gingell distinguishes itself by blending cultural immersion with a creative craft that honors tradition while promoting social bonding. Located in downtown Barcelona, it invites travelers and locals alike to engage with a living art form intimately tied to the region’s creative heritage. Whether as a corporate team event or a social outing, this workshop transforms group dynamics with hands-on artistry, making it a standout activity for those seeking meaningful, memorable engagement in one of Spain’s most dynamic cities.
