How it works

  1. Consultation: We chat about your charity goals, the Helsinki location, and the vibe you want to create.
  2. Design phase: Our artists help you incorporate your charity’s logo, mission, or a specific theme into the graffiti concept.
  3. Setup: On the day, we arrive early to set up the mobile graffiti walls, lay down protective flooring, and prep the paints.
  4. The intro: We kick things off with an energetic demo, showing everyone the basics of spray paint culture and technique. ✨
  5. Skills practice: Participants grab a can and learn how to make tags, fades, and outlines on their own practice space.
  6. The main creation: Everyone works together (or in teams) to fill in the large-scale charity mural or individual canvases.
  7. Final touches: Our pro artists add those 'pro' outlines and highlights to make the artwork look truly spectacular. 🏆
  8. Photo op & wrap-up: We take group photos with the finished art—perfect for your charity's social media and PR!

Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for all participants?

Absolutely! We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and specialized masks for every participant. Our artists lead a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We use low-odour, professional-grade paints that are safe for outdoor use. Your health and safety are our top priorities, ensuring the focus remains entirely on having a great time and raising funds for your cause in Helsinki.

What happens if it rains on the day of the event?

Helsinki weather can be a bit unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered. If the forecast looks rainy, we can often move the event to a sheltered outdoor area or use one of our indoor-safe techniques if the venue allows it. We also have backup artists and flexible scheduling to ensure your charity fundraiser goes off without a hitch, regardless of the Finnish clouds!

Do we need any prior art experience to participate?

Not at all! Our professional graffiti artists are experts at teaching absolute beginners. We start with the basics—how to hold the can, control the pressure, and create clean lines. You'll be amazed at how quickly your group goes from zero experience to creating a collaborative masterpiece. It’s all about the energy, the cause, and the fun of trying something new together.

What is the minimum or maximum group size?

We recommend a minimum of 10 people to get the best atmosphere, but we can accommodate huge groups of 100+! For charity events, a larger crowd usually means more energy and more funds raised. If you have a specific number in mind for your Helsinki event, just let us know, and we will scale the materials and artist count to fit perfectly.

Can you host the workshop at our own venue in Helsinki?

We are totally mobile! We can bring the street art experience to your charity headquarters, a public park (pending permits), or a creative space in the Suvilahti district. If you don't have a spot in mind, we can help suggest popular Helsinki locations that work well for spray painting and have the right vibe for a high-energy fundraiser.

Can we keep the artwork to auction off later?

Yes, we do! After the workshop, we can dismantle the graffiti wall so you have individual canvases or large panels to auction off. This is a fantastic way to boost your fundraising totals. Imagine the excitement as donors bid on a piece of art they watched being created live during the event. It adds a powerful 'wow' factor to your charity gala.

How long does a typical charity workshop last?

A standard charity workshop typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This includes the introduction, skills practice, and the creation of the final mural. We can adjust the timing to fit into your event schedule, whether you want a quick 'drop-in' style activation or a deep-dive creative session that serves as the main attraction of your Helsinki fundraiser.
