Colossal Media is the global, award-winning leader in hand-painted outdoor advertising. Founded and based in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, Colossal adds murals and meaningful places for authentic engagement to communities around the U.S. and internationally. The hand-paint craft is a careful process that engages passersby as an inherently tactile and highly skilled art form. It transforms any ad into a performance, an experience, and a reveal. Every mural Colossal paints begins in its Los Angeles or Brooklyn paint shop, with a meticulous pre-production system. Picture an auto shop that moonlights as a paint shop, art store, and hand-painted signage museum.

Before you embark on this vibrant, behind-the-scenes look at Colossal’s mural-making process and paint shop tour, we’ll need you to sign a Hold Harmless waiver. This tour will be mostly standing and walking, and includes climbing and descending two flights of stairs. Bringing your kiddo along? Amazing, they’re going to love the tour! Just note children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times. Finally, there's wet paint, sharp tools, and heavy stuff around the shop. So be mindful of wearing any clothes you’re attached to, and keep an eye on your surroundings!
