What kind of paint do you use for live painting in Kano?

For most events in Kano, we use professional, low-odor spray paints designed for indoor use, or high-quality acrylics. If your venue is indoors, we ensure proper ventilation or use water-based spray cans that don't leave a heavy scent. Every material we use is professional-grade to ensure the colors pop and the final artwork looks like a masterpiece under the event lights.

How long does a live painting session last?

The duration is totally up to you! Most of our live painting performances in Kano last between 2 to 4 hours, matching the peak energy of your event. However, for full-day festivals or multi-day brand activations, we can arrange a relay of artists to keep the creativity flowing from start to finish. We work around your schedule to ensure the big reveal happens right on time.

Will the spray paint mess up my event venue?

Not at all! Our professional graffiti artists are experts at 'clean' setups. We use high-quality drop cloths, floor coverings, and sometimes temporary partitioned walls to ensure that the only thing getting painted is the canvas. Whether you are at a high-end hotel in Nassarawa or a corporate office, we leave the venue exactly as we found it—plus a new piece of art!

Can my guests participate in the painting?

Absolutely! In fact, we love it when the audience gets involved. While the main piece is handled by our pro, we can set up a 'guest canvas' or a designated 'tag zone' where your guests can try their hand at spray painting under our guidance. It adds a whole new level of interaction and fun to your Kano gathering.

What happens to the painting after the event is over?

The artwork is yours to keep! Many of our Kano clients choose to display the finished canvas in their office lobby, gift it to a guest of honor, or even auction it off for charity. Since we use high-quality materials, the art is durable and will serve as a lasting memory of your event for years to come.

Do I need to provide the canvas or materials?

We are flexible! We can paint on large-scale stretched canvases, wooden panels, or even temporary 'stretch-wrap' walls if you want something massive. If you have a specific surface in mind—like a vehicle or a piece of furniture—just let us know. We bring all the necessary equipment, so you don't have to worry about a thing!

Local culture

Kano is a city where tradition meets a booming modern energy. From the historic Kurmi Market to the bustling streets of Sabon Gari, creativity has always been part of the city's DNA. While Kano is famous for its ancient dye pits and traditional crafts, the new generation is embracing modern street art as a way to express the city's evolving identity. Our live painting sessions honor this creative heritage by bringing a contemporary, urban twist to your local gatherings.

Fun Fact: Did you know Kano is one of the oldest cities in West Africa? Much like the intricate patterns in traditional Hausa architecture, our graffiti artists use layers and detail to tell a story—just with a spray can instead of a trowel! 🎨

Pricing

Investment for your Kano event

Prices typically range from ₦15,000 to ₦35,000 per person for interactive sessions, or flat-rate performance fees for live shows.

The final cost depends on the scale of the canvas, the complexity of the design, and the number of artists required to make your vision come to life.
