Créatif is a modern art studio franchise that combines hands-on creativity with STEAM-based learning. It offers DIY painting sessions, art workshops, private parties, seasonal camps, classes, corporate events, and mobile “Art-on-the-Go” services.
The company was founded in August 2018 in Pleasanton, California, by Jaya Aiyar. Its flagship studio launched the same year. Créatif is headquartered at 5000 Hopyard Road, Suite 250, Pleasanton, CA.
Franchising began in 2020, with the first franchised locations opening later that year. As of 2024, the brand has expanded to multiple locations across the United States.
Créatif differentiates itself by blending art with proprietary technology like the ArtPad app and StudioManager software, improving both customer experience and operational efficiency.

A comprehensive and transparent look at franchising finances. The inclusion of profit margins and disclosure documents offers insights you can’t find elsewhere. Essential for anyone considering a franchise investment.
Been waiting for years for this. All the most important franchises and their latest Franchise Documents to download. The team also updates the franchises very quickly.
Créatif provides a thorough training program to equip franchisees and their staff for successful business operation. Here are the key programs outlined:
Créatif offers its franchisees a defined territory in which to operate, but this territory is not exclusive. While the franchisor agrees not to authorize or open another dedicated Créatif outlet within that territory for the duration of the franchise agreement, it retains broad rights to distribute products and services through alternative channels such as schools, retail stores, events, and the internet.
Franchisees are restricted to selling and advertising within their approved territory, although advertising reach may naturally extend beyond. The franchisee’s limited territory protection is contingent on their compliance with the agreement, and no minimum sales or performance metrics are required to maintain that protection.
However, Créatif explicitly reserves the right to continue or initiate commercial partnerships or national accounts, even within a franchisee’s area, if the franchisee declines to service those accounts.
