A unique festival experience

There is no menu.

Bring us an idea. Browse our book of completed works. Match your festival look. Or simply sit in the Chair and give the artist creative freedom.

Every person receives a custom piece created on the spot.

No two canvases are alike.

Be painted. Be admired. Be remembered.
