Do I need to have any artistic skills to participate?

No previous experience is needed at all! Our retreats are designed for everyone from absolute beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists lead you through every step of the way, from basic spray can control to advanced shading techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at what you've managed to create on the wall. It’s all about the joy of discovery and self-expression.

What should I bring to the workshop?

We provide everything you need for a successful creative retreat. This includes high-quality spray cans in a huge variety of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or wall space and professional guidance from our expert street artists. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and wear some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a bit of dust on!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

The safety of our participants is our top priority. We provide professional-grade FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't breathing in fumes, along with gloves and protective clothing. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas or outdoors. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring a worry-free environment where you can focus entirely on your artistic journey.

How long does a creative retreat workshop last?

Typically, our Vantaa retreat workshops last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows for a relaxed introduction, a skills demonstration, time for individual sketching/planning, and plenty of actual painting time. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for people to get into a creative flow state without feeling rushed, ensuring you leave feeling refreshed and accomplished.

Can you host the workshop at our own location in Vantaa?

Absolutely! While we have several preferred creative spots around Vantaa, we are highly mobile. If you have a specific venue, office courtyard, or private space in mind, we can bring the entire graffiti experience to you. We just need to ensure the space is suitable for painting and has proper ventilation. We love transforming unexpected locations into temporary street art galleries!

What happens if it rains on the day of our retreat?

Vantaa can be a bit chilly, but we don't let it stop the fun! If the weather is too wet or cold for an outdoor session, we have access to indoor graffiti halls where the creativity continues regardless of the Finnish climate. For mobile bookings at your location, we usually discuss a 'Plan B' indoor space or use temporary undercover setups to keep everyone dry and inspired.

Local culture

Vantaa is far more than just the home of the airport! It's a city with a deep-rooted appreciation for public art, from the colourful murals in Myyrmäki to the hidden treasures tucked away in Tikkurila. The local street art scene here is bold and constantly evolving, mirroring the city's growth. When you join one of our workshops, you're tapping into that same Finnish spirit of innovation and "Sisu"—the grit and determination to create something beautiful, even in the cold!

Fun fact: Vantaa's Myyrmäki station is one of the most colourful railway stations in all of Europe, covered almost entirely in stunning professional street art. It serves as a daily inspiration for our retreat participants! 🎨

Pricing

Our creative retreats are designed to be accessible and high-value. Prices typically range from €30 to €65 per person, depending on the number of participants, the duration of the session, and whether we're using a permanent wall or individual canvases. We believe in transparency and flexibility, which is why we don't require any upfront payment—you only pay after the fun is done!
