5. Heaven Spot – Spray paint walls


Unique art jamming in Singapore - Heaven Spot

The thought of spray painting walls sounds illegal but trust us when we say no one’s going to jail when you book a session at the Heaven Spot graffiti studio. This art jamming session is nothing short of satisfying as you get to legally vandalise walls with cans of spray paint in a 1-hour session.

Heaven Spot

You get free rein over a 30sqft panel to paint and 2 cans of paint for you to go ham on your graffiti artwork. Depending on how elaborate your piece is going to be, you might want to purchase additional cans. The professional-grade cans are $12 each, but we recommend looking through the semi-used cans bins for $1/can.

While it’s impossible to bag home your entire 30sqft masterpiece, a small 60x90cm take home panel can be purchased for $20. 

Heaven Spot

Safety wise, customers will be equipped with a gas mask and optional safety gear, which includes cool-looking coveralls, safety glasses and gloves.
