How it works

  1. The safety huddle: We start with a quick briefing on how to use the gear and keep the vibes safe and fun.
  2. Shake it up: Learn the professional way to shake and prep your cans to get that perfect paint flow.
  3. Line work basics: Practice the fundamentals—dots, thin lines, and thick flares on a practice board.
  4. Concept sketching: Grab a marker or a can and sketch your big idea onto your final canvas or wall.
  5. Fill-ins and fades: Master the art of the 'fill' and learn how to blend colours like a true street artist.
  6. The outline: This is where the magic happens! Re-trace your lines to make your artwork pop.
  7. Highlights and details: Add those final 'bits' and 'bobs'—shines, shadows, and clean edges.
  8. The grand reveal: Step back, admire your work, and take some epic photos for the gram!

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have any artistic experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a straight line to seasoned hobby-ists. Our professional artists guide you through every step, starting with simple spray techniques and safety. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It’s all about having fun and expressing your unique style!

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need to get messy! This includes a wide range of premium spray paint colours, high-quality caps, protective overalls, gloves, and high-standard respiratory masks. We also provide the canvas or wall space for your creation. Just bring yourself, your enthusiasm, and maybe some old shoes you don't mind getting a little dusty!

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our top priority in Espoo. We provide professional-grade protective gear, including masks and gloves. Our artists conduct a safety briefing before any cans are shaken, ensuring everyone knows how to handle the equipment properly. We use low-odour paints where possible and always ensure our workshop areas have excellent ventilation to keep the environment safe for everyone.

How long does a typical session last?

Espoo workshops typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final artwork. If you have specific time constraints for your festival or event, we can often adjust the duration to fit your schedule perfectly. Just let us know your needs when you book!

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

Don't let the Finnish weather stop the fun! While we love painting outdoors in the Espoo sunshine, we always have backup plans. We can arrange for sheltered areas or indoor venues that are properly ventilated. Our 'backup artist' policy also ensures that your event goes ahead even if an instructor is unwell. We’re committed to making your mark happen!

How do I book a session and when do I pay?

Booking is easy and stress-free! You can start by using our online Cost Calculator for an instant estimate, or simply send us a message with your group size and date. The best part? There’s no upfront payment required. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied with your street art experience. Ready to start?
