How it works

  1. The arrival & intro: Meet your pro artist at the designated Tampere spot. We’ll kick things off with a brief history of street art and a look at the tools of the trade.
  2. Safety first: Suit up in our protective gear. We’ll show you how to fit your mask and gloves properly so you can focus entirely on the art.
  3. Mastering the 'Can Control': Learn the secrets of the spray. From 'fat caps' to 'skinny caps', you’ll practice making dots, lines, and fades.
  4. Sketching your concept: Grab a marker and start laying out your design. Whether it's a personal tag or a group mural, we'll help you refine your vision.
  5. First layers: Time to hit the wall! You'll start with the 'fill-ins'—using bold colours to bring life to your shapes.
  6. The art of the outline: This is where the magic happens. We’ll teach you how to sharpen your edges and make your design pop against the background.
  7. Highlights & 3D effects: Add those professional touches like shadows and 'shines' that give your work depth and character.
  8. The grand reveal: Step back and admire the work! Take plenty of photos of your creation to show off your new skills.
  9. Wrap up & feedback: We’ll finish with a quick recap and celebrate your successful entry into the world of graffiti.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous drawing or painting skills?

No prior art experience is needed at all! Our professional artists specialize in teaching absolute beginners. We start with the basics of how to hold and control the spray can before moving on to more complex techniques. You'll be amazed at how quickly you can create something impressive under our guidance. We focus on fun and expression, so there’s zero pressure to be a 'pro'.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and specialized FFP3 masks to ensure you don't inhale any fumes. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas or designated outdoor legal walls in Tampere. Our instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring everyone has a blast while staying completely safe.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on. While we provide full protective overalls and gloves to keep your outfit clean, it’s always better to be safe than sorry when working with permanent spray paint! Also, consider the weather if we are heading to one of Tampere's outdoor legal spots.

How long does the session usually last?

A standard onboarding or introductory graffiti workshop typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, some practice runs, and the creation of your final masterpiece. If you have specific time constraints for your event in Tampere, let us know – we can often adapt the schedule to fit your needs perfectly.

Are materials included in the workshop price?

Everything is included in the price! We provide all the professional-grade spray paint in a huge variety of colours, caps/nozzles for different effects, protective gear (masks, suits, gloves), and the surface you'll be painting on (canvases or walls). You just need to bring your enthusiasm and your creative spirit. There are no hidden costs for materials.

Can you host workshops in other Finnish cities?

Absolutely! While we love hosting groups in Tampere, we also have partners and artists available in Helsinki, Espoo, Turku, and Oulu. We are quite flexible and can often bring the workshop to your specific location if you have a suitable space, or we can suggest the best local spots for our session. Just ask us during the booking process!

What's your policy on cancellations or scheduling changes?

We understand that plans can change. That’s why we don't require any upfront payment – you can pay after the workshop is completed. Additionally, we have backup artists on standby to ensure your event goes ahead even if an instructor falls ill. We aim for 100% satisfaction and a stress-free booking experience for every group.
