Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have any artistic experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our Espoo graffiti workshops are designed for everyone, from those who haven't picked up a pen in years to seasoned doodles. Our professional street artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic lines and moving up to complex fills. You'll be amazed at the masterpiece you can create with just a few expert tips and a bit of courage. It's all about the process and having a blast!

Is the spray paint safe and do you provide gear?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including professional-grade masks to ensure you aren't breathing in fumes, as well as gloves and overalls to protect your clothing. Our instructors are experienced pros who teach you the correct way to handle spray cans safely. We also ensure that the workshops take place in well-ventilated or outdoor areas suitable for street art.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard public art workshop in Espoo usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to go through the history of the art form, practice some basic techniques on practice walls, and then complete a final collective or individual piece. If you have a specific timeframe in mind for your event or group, we can often customise the duration to fit your needs perfectly!

How much does a graffiti workshop in Espoo cost?

Our pricing is flexible to accommodate different needs, generally ranging from €30 to €65 per person. The final cost depends on the size of your group, the location, and whether you want specific extras like individual canvases to take home. Because every event is unique, we recommend requesting a custom quote so we can give you the most accurate pricing for your specific Espoo adventure.

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

While we love the sunshine, Finland's weather can be unpredictable! For outdoor workshops, we always have a backup plan. This might involve moving to a covered outdoor area or using indoor-safe alternatives if the venue allows. We also have a network of backup artists to ensure your workshop goes ahead even if an instructor falls ill. We are committed to making sure your creative session happens, rain or shine!

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We love bringing people together! We can host workshops for small groups of friends or massive corporate teams of over 100 people. For larger groups, we bring in additional artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention and guidance. Whether it's a small birthday celebration or a major city festival activation, we have the resources and the paint to make it happen across Espoo.

Do I need to pay upfront to book a session?

We value your trust and offer a very flexible booking process. Unlike many other providers, we don't require an upfront payment to secure your date. You can pay after the workshop has been completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. This takes the pressure off your planning and ensures you only pay for an experience you truly enjoyed. Just get in touch to lock in your date!
