We partnered with CADC for a painting activity for our Market Leadership Adventure Program. The candidates were surprised by the activity and excited to work on an artistic project in a Big 4 Professional Service firm setting. Victoria was organized, timely, prepared, and fun to work with. I would recommend Victoria to any company seeking a fun, outside-the-box activity with their employees.

I was in charge of planning an event for over 50 of my coworkers. I was pretty nervous about planning an event for a large group of very diverse people, but Victoria and her team were extremely helpful and a complete joy to work with.
From the beginning, they were great at communicating ideas for the flow of the evening , suggesting paintings that would be of interest to everyone, and didn’t hesitate to travel a great distance to the location.
At the event they brought every imaginable supply, contributed to the relaxing atmosphere by mingling with all the participants and offering great advice throughout the evening.
Everyone had a great time thanks to Victoria and her team.
