Frequently asked questions
Is a graffiti brand activation safe for indoor venues in Ottawa?
Absolutely! We take safety and cleanliness seriously. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits to all participants. For indoor brand activations in Ottawa, we use low-odour, water-based spray paints specifically designed for indoor use. We also set up protective flooring and walls to ensure your venue remains spotless while the creativity flows. Your brand's reputation and the venue's integrity are our top priorities. 🛡️
How far in advance should I book my brand activation?
We recommend booking as early as possible, especially during peak event seasons in the Capital Region. Generally, 4-6 weeks in advance is ideal to ensure we have your preferred date and enough time to custom-order branded supplies. However, we have a large team of backup artists, so even if you have a last-minute request, give us a shout! We’ll always do our best to make it happen. 📅
What kind of custom options do you offer for branding?
The sky is the limit! We can create anything from a massive collaborative mural to custom-painted sneakers, skateboards, or tote bags for guests to take home. We can also integrate digital elements, stencil your logo for a clean look, or create a 'live paint' performance where an artist develops a piece throughout your event. Tell us your goals, and we’ll design a custom concept! 🎨
Can you match our specific brand colors and logos?
Our artists are masters of their craft and can replicate your brand's specific hex codes or Pantone colours with high-quality spray paint. Before the activation, we work closely with your marketing team to ensure the aesthetic aligns perfectly with your brand guidelines. We can use custom-cut stencils to ensure your logo is crisp, recognizable, and professional every single time. ✨
Do my guests need any artistic experience to participate?
Participation is entirely up to your guests! Some people love to jump right in and spray, while others prefer to watch the professional artist at work. We design our Ottawa activations to be approachable; we provide easy-to-use stencils and guided instruction so even the most 'artistically challenged' guest feels like a rockstar. It’s all about engagement, not pressure. 🎤
How long does a typical brand activation session last?
Standard activations typically last between 2 and 4 hours, but we are completely flexible. If you are running a multi-day trade show at the Shaw Centre or a weekend-long festival in ByWard Market, we can provide coverage for the entire duration. We’ll work with your schedule to ensure the energy stays high from the moment the doors open until the final wrap-up. ⏱️
