Custom Murals & Live Art Experiences in Los Angeles

Los Angeles has a different relationship with art than most cities. Walls double as storytelling space. Events expect something visual. Brands compete for attention in person and on camera.

At Graffiti Arts, we work with companies, agencies, and venues that need artwork to function in real environments. That includes experiential activations, offices, exterior walls, and smaller one-off installs. If you’re looking to work with a graffiti artist in Los Angeles who understands timing, access, and audience flow, our team plans for all three.

Art That Performs at Events And Beyond

Live art plays a big role in how brands show up at events, but it’s not the only place murals matter. The same teams that paint during activations also design finished walls meant to live long after the crowd clears.

For art events in Los Angeles, live painting gives guests something to engage with as it happens. For offices and exterior spaces, murals shape how people experience a location every day. We build both with the same level of planning and creative direction.

Our live mural artwork often appears at brand launches, conferences, pop-ups, and private events. When interaction is part of the brief, live art customization allows guests to receive personalized pieces without slowing down the event flow.

For family-friendly or community-focused activations, an interactive coloring mural creates participation without turning the space into a work zone.

You can see the full range of styles and environments we work in through our portfolio of graffiti, street art, and mural projects.

Murals for Offices, Outdoor Walls, and Everyday Spaces

Not every project is live. Many clients come to us for finished murals that support culture, branding, or visibility.

We regularly create:

If you want a screen-first concept to pitch internally or use at an event, our digital murals give you high-impact artwork that works on displays and can also be adapted into physical installs. For branded interiors and wayfinding, we also paint logos and signage that match your brand standards and read cleanly in real spaces.

Preparing for Large-Scale Events and Campaign Windows

Los Angeles has several major moments on the calendar in 2026 that are already shaping how brands plan activations, pop-ups, and temporary installations.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup runs from June through July 2026, with multiple matches hosted in the LA area. SoFi Stadium in Inglewood is confirmed as one of the venues, and Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena will also host World Cup matches. These weeks typically bring sponsor activations, fan zones, brand lounges, and short-term event spaces where live art and murals are used to draw attention and create shareable moments.

Beyond the World Cup, Los Angeles continues to host large annual events that drive experiential demand, including award season events in Hollywood, major music festivals in spring and summer, and industry conferences and brand showcases that cluster around Downtown LA and Westside venues.

We support projects tied to these high-traffic moments, but we also work year-round on smaller installs. Office murals, storefront walls, interior branding, and private commissions follow the same process, just without the event-day pressure. Scale changes. The planning doesn’t.

Examples of Our Work in Los Angeles

Over the years, we’ve completed a wide range of projects across the city, each shaped by its surroundings, audience, and purpose.

That includes multiple office murals in Downtown LA, such as a street art mural created for a Los Angeles corporate workspace, as well as a custom graffiti mural for Taboola’s downtown headquarters designed to reflect brand identity inside an active office environment.

Our exterior work ranges from high-visibility coastal installs like an outdoor mural painted in Venice Beach to large-scale sports artwork, including a Dodgers-themed street art mural in Los Angeles that later received national attention when it was covered by ESPN ahead of an NLCS game.

We’ve also produced live brand activations, including a graffiti installation painted during the Acid Cigarillos LA launch event, where guests were able to watch the artwork come together in real time.

Together, these projects show the range of graffiti art in Los Angeles, spanning corporate interiors, public-facing exterior walls, and live experiences built for events.

How the Process Works

1. Submit Your Details

You share wall size, interior or exterior location, access notes, timing, and style references. This gives us the framework to match the right artist to the space.

2. Creative Process

We discuss the project, shape the concept, and present visual mockups. Revisions happen here, before any paint hits the wall.

3. Art Time

On the scheduled date, our crew arrives prepared, protects the area, paints the mural, and leaves the space clean. For live events, the painting window is planned so guests can watch the piece come to life.

FAQs

How much does a custom mural cost?

Pricing depends on wall size, surface condition, and design complexity. Smaller interior projects usually start in the low thousands, while large exterior walls can reach the low five figures. Once wall details and timing are reviewed, we provide a clear estimate.

Do outdoor murals require permits?

Many private walls only need owner approval. If a mural faces a public street, the city may require a simple mural registration. We flag permit needs early and handle the process when required.

How long does the mural process take?

Most projects are completed within one to three weeks after the design is approved. Timelines depend on wall size, revision rounds, access, and weather for exterior work.

Will I see the design before painting starts?

Yes. Every project includes a full-color mockup and two revision rounds so the final design is approved before painting begins.

Are you insured for commercial projects?

We carry general liability insurance and can issue a certificate naming your venue or property manager as additionally insured. This is standard for office buildings, venues, and commercial sites.

How do you protect murals from sun and weather?

We use professional-grade paints with strong UV resistance and apply protective clear coats when appropriate. This helps artwork hold color despite sun exposure, heat, and coastal conditions.

What if the mural is tagged or damaged later?

We offer touch-up services if needed. Because we keep color references and project files, repairs are usually quick and consistent with the original artwork.

Which areas do you serve?

We work throughout LA County, including beach cities, Downtown, the Valley, and surrounding areas. Travel outside the region is possible when a project requires it.
