Do I need to be good at drawing to join the workshop?

No prior artistic experience is needed! Our workshops are designed specifically for beginners and tourists who want to try something new. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering different nozzle techniques. You'll be amazed at the high-quality piece you can create in just one session. It's all about having fun and expressing your personality through street art!

What should I wear and do you provide protective gear?

We've got you covered! We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and professional-grade masks to keep you and your clothes safe from paint. While our gear is very effective, we still recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you wouldn't mind getting a tiny splash of paint on, just in case. Your safety and comfort are our top priorities while you create your masterpiece.

How long does the graffiti workshop last?

The duration typically ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the final creation of your own graffiti work. We move at a pace that suits your group, ensuring everyone feels confident and has enough time to finish their art. It’s the perfect midday activity to fit into your Kuopio sightseeing itinerary.

Will I get to spray paint myself and keep the art?

Yes, absolutely! Unlike many street art tours where you just look, our workshops are 100% hands-on. After a brief demonstration, you'll be the one holding the cans. You will work on an individual canvas or a professional-grade panel, and yes—you can usually take your canvas home with you as the ultimate, unique souvenir from your trip to Finland!

Is the workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is paramount. we use low-odour, professional spray paints where possible and provide all necessary ventilation or outdoor setups. Our instructors are professional artists who manage the group closely, ensuring everyone uses the equipment correctly. We also have backup artists available for every booking, so your session is guaranteed to go ahead safely and professionally regardless of circumstances.

How does the payment work and do I need to pay upfront?

We believe in a stress-free booking experience for our travellers. You don't need to pay anything upfront; you can pay after the workshop concludes. We accept various payment methods for your convenience. If your plans change, just let us know in advance. We want your visit to Kuopio to be as flexible and enjoyable as possible!

In which languages is the workshop available?

Our standard workshops are conducted in English, which is perfect for international tourists. However, we are a diverse team and can often accommodate other languages upon request. Since we operate in Finland, we also have Finnish-speaking artists. If you have a specific language requirement, just let us know when booking and we will do our best to match you with the right pro!

Local culture

Kuopio might be known for its traditional markets and "Savo" spirit, but the street art scene here is growing beautifully! From urban murals hidden in residential corners to the creative energy found near the city's student hubs, Kuopio provides a surprisingly cool backdrop for urban expression. We often hold our sessions in inspiring spots that catch the northern light perfectly.

Fun Fact: Did you know that the Finnish word for graffiti is often just "graffiti," but the local street art community in Kuopio is famous for its friendly, community-driven approach? It’s not uncommon to see stunning murals that celebrate the surrounding Lakeland nature! 🌲✨

By joining us, you aren't just doing an activity; you're connecting with the local creative pulse of Eastern Finland. It’s the perfect contrast to a morning spent by the Kallavesi lake!
