Want to spend a day painting learning about the process of mural making and creating a unique piece of art? Reach out and we can set something up!
We'll meet at my studio to discuss how to create a mural. We'll then pack up muralist supplies and set off to explore what it means to be a local artist in Toronto. Together we'll create a "SMILE" mural by taping designs, painting, and pasting. And we'll celebrate our creation with festive photos and tasty treats from my favourite bakery.

"Bareket is super sweet! Not only is she very cool and friendly, but she also explained everything to us amateurs along the way. We created the mural without any pressure and had a chill vibe going the whole time. Take note that you don't have to be an artist --or consider yourself "good" at art--to enjoy this project. It is really neat to see what only 3 people can create in just a few hours. I'm so glad my friend and I signed up for it and that we got to leave our mark in Toronto. I encourage everyone who is considering this to give it a try! &Thanks again, Bareket! Keep spreading the reminders to smile. :)" - Maria

"Bareket is a wonderful and positive person. Though we had no experience with painting a mural, we ended up with an amazing mural. It was awesome that we used spray cans like the real artists. Bareket helped and adviced us during the whole making of. Listening to some Beatles music, talking, laughing and creating. What a wonderful experience. So glad we did it. Afterwards we went for a pastry & drink from one of her favorite bakeries." - Heidi

"I cannot rave enough about this wonderful experience. Truly. We learned about art and techniques, but it was also playful and pressure free. You don't need to be an Artist to be an artist and make art! We laughed. We ate the best doughnuts on the planet. We made a piece of art that is actually going to be seen everyday by people!!! This is perfect for families or groups, but I also think that, were I travelling alone in the city, this would be an ideal encounter to meet new people. Excellent value. Wonderful experience." - Mary

"Bareket's project is not only an airbnb experience but also a very interesting street arts class and some sharings about her arts life in Toronto and travels. Bareket tries to use this project to promote some optimism in the cities. It is pretty cool to combine this concept and Airbnb experience. Highly recommend visitors to try this opportunity." - Emma
