Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Espoo have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert teachers who break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We start with basic lines and safety, then move on to fills and outlines. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It’s all about having fun and expressing yourself, regardless of your previous art experience.

What should I bring or wear to the workshop?

We provide everything you need for a fantastic creative session. This includes high-quality spray paint in a rainbow of colours, professional-grade masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvas or wall space for your work. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty—the rest of the kit is on us!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for tourists?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We provide high-quality FFP3 respirators to filter out fumes, along with gloves and protective overalls. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially equipped indoor spaces. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone starts spraying, ensuring everyone knows how to handle the equipment correctly and stay safe while having the time of their lives.

How long does the workshop session last?

A standard tourist workshop in Espoo typically lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on practice before you dive into creating your main piece. If you have a larger group or want a more intensive masterclass, we can easily extend the duration to suit your schedule.

What is the minimum or maximum group size?

We are very flexible! While we love hosting larger groups of friends or travel parties, we can also accommodate smaller private bookings. For larger groups, we often bring in additional artists to ensure everyone gets plenty of 1-on-1 guidance. If you're a solo traveller, get in touch and we can let you know if there’s a group you can join or discuss private session rates.

Where exactly in Espoo do the workshops take place?

Espoo has some great options! We usually host workshops at legal graffiti walls or in creative hubs like those found near Otaniemi. If the Finnish weather doesn't cooperate, we have access to indoor studios where you can spray on large canvases or mobile walls. Once you book, we’ll send you the exact location details so you can easily find us via the Länsimetro or local bus.

How do I book and do I need to pay upfront?

Booking is simple and risk-free! You can fill out our online request form or use our cost calculator to get an instant estimate. We don't require upfront payments—you can pay after the workshop once you're 100% satisfied with the experience. We also have backup artists available, so you never have to worry about your booking being cancelled at the last minute. Ready to spray?
