Why choose us in Tartu?

Why choose a Graffitifun workshop in the 'City of Good Thoughts'? Because we don't just teach you to paint; we give you an unforgettable experience that sticks. Here is why our Tartu sessions are a must-do:

Expert Local Artists: Learn from professionals who are active members of the Estonian street art scene. 🎤
Zero Pressure, Max Fun: You don't need to be Picasso. We focus on the 'fun' in Graffitifun, ensuring everyone leaves with a smile.
Legal & Safe: No running from the police here! We use authorised spots so you can relax and focus on your technique. 🛡️
Tailored Experiences: From kids' parties to brand activations, we adapt our style to your needs.

No Risk Booking: With our 'pay after' policy and backup artist guarantee, your event is in safe hands.

How it works

Introduction & Safety: Meet your local Tartu artist and get kitted out in protective gear. We'll cover the 'rules of the road' for safe and respectful spray painting.
The Basics: Learn how to control the pressure of the can. Practice making thin lines, thick fades, and perfect dots on a practice surface.
Concept Sketching: Grab a marker and some paper! We'll help you sketch out your vision, focusing on 'flow' and letter structure.
Outlining: Take the can to the wall (or canvas). This is where your idea starts to take physical shape with the first 'skeleton' lines.
Fill-in & Colour: The fun part! Learn how to blend colours and create smooth gradients to make your public art piece pop.
Cutting & Sharpening: Use 'background' colours to clean up your edges, making your design look professional and sharp.
Highlights & 3D: Add those final touches—white highlights for 'shine' and a 3D shadow to make your artwork jump off the wall.
The Big Reveal: Sign your work with your new 'tag' and take a group photo with your masterpiece!

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any prior art experience to join?

Absolutely! In fact, most of our workshop participants in Tartu have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are experts at breaking down the basics, from how to hold the can to mastering 'fat caps' and 'skinny caps.' We'll guide you through every line and shadow until you've created a piece of public art you're genuinely proud of. It's all about the journey and having a blast!

What materials are included in the workshop?

We've got you covered! Graffitifun provides everything you need: high-quality spray paint in a rainbow of colours, gloves, masks, and protective overalls to keep your clothes clean. Depending on the workshop specific, we provide either large wooden boards, canvases, or designated wall space. Just bring your enthusiasm and wear some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on.

How long does a typical session last?

Standard public art workshops in Tartu typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a crash course in techniques, sketching your design, and the final painting phase. If you're looking for a more intensive 'street art masterclass' or a shorter session for a festival, we can easily customise the duration to fit your schedule.

Is spray painting safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control and provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you're not inhaling fumes. All workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially equipped indoor studios. Our artists are also trained in site safety to ensure the environment remains clean and secure for all participants while we create.

Where do the workshops actually take place?

While we love the spirit of spontaneous street art, we only paint on legal, authorised surfaces. In Tartu, we use designated 'legal walls' or provide our own professional mobile graffiti walls. This ensures your experience is 100% stress-free and legal. We want you to focus on your creativity without worrying about the authorities! It’s all about professional, public-facing art.

Are you available in other Estonian cities?

Yes, we love traveling across Estonia! While Tartu is our creative hub in the south, we also host workshops in Tallinn, Narva, Parnu, and Kohtla-Jarve. Whether you're in the capital or on the coast, our team of artists can bring the full Graffitifun experience to your location. Just let us know where you are, and we'll bring the paint!

How do I book and when do I pay?

Booking is simple and risk-free! You can request a quote through our website or use our Cost Calculator for an instant estimate. The best part? There’s no upfront payment required. You only pay after the workshop is complete and you’re 100% satisfied with the experience. We also have backup artists on standby to ensure your event always goes ahead as planned.
