To ensure the best possible glow and the highest quality results, we do not allow outside art supplies on the shuttle. This includes, but is not limited to, personal canvases, paints, stickers, or embellishments. We provide everything you need for a perfectly vibrant, Cosmic masterpiece! If you would like extra canvases, let us know! We can provide them at a low, wholesale price.

To keep the splat on the canvas and off your snacks, we do not allow food or drinks inside the mobile studio.

Intergalactic law (and our insurance policy) dictate the only spirits allowed on board are the creative kind. Our shuttle runs strictly on a dry fuel system, so alcohol is not permitted inside the studio.

For the safety and comfort of our painters and our furry friends, we do not allow pets or Emotional Support Animals (ESAs) inside the mobile studio. While we love animals, the Cosmic Splat environment isn't the best fit for them for a few reasons: Safety First: Our studio is a high-energy space with wet paint, trip hazards, and confined movement. Sensitive Paws: We use specialty paints and cleaning agents that aren't ideal for paws or fur. Sensory Environment: The UV lights, music, and high-energy vibe can be overwhelming for some animals. Service Animal Policy: We do, of course, welcome task-trained service animals as defined by the ADA. Please keep in mind that the studio floor can be slippery and paint splatter is part of the experience, so we recommend taking extra precautions to keep your service animal's coat protected.

If Cosmic Splat determines that weather conditions (heavy snow, ice, or winds exceeding 35 mph) make it unsafe for the shuttle to launch, we will contact you to reschedule at no cost.

We keep our community pop-ups and fundraisers focused exclusively on our Immersive Splatter & Pour Experience for two main reasons:Wardrobe Safety: Acrylic paint is permanent on fabric. While we provide protective gear, paint has a way of finding bare spots! Pop-up visitors usually stumble upon us spontaneously and aren't dressed for messy art they can't wash out of their clothes.Capacity & Wait Times: Our Splatter & Pour sessions allow us to host up to 25 guests per hour doing 1 canvas each, whereas acrylic pouring requires focused setup, mixing, and drying logistics that cap capacity at just 10 guests per hour, each doing 2 canvases each.If you’re excited to try the Premium Acrylic Pour Experience, it is available exclusively for privately booked events where guests can plan ahead, dress for the mess, and enjoy a dedicated, relaxed session!

Some cities require Cosmic Splat to file for a temporary use permit to set up, even when we are operating on private property. The city can take 5 business days - 3 weeks to approve the permit, provided there are no hiccups. Booking early gives us a comfortable window to get all the paperwork approved so your event goes off without a hitch! If your city requires a permit, we recommend booking a month or more in advance to be safe. To make it a hassle-free experience for you, we handle the filing and you only have to cover the fee!

You don’t need to submit a final headcount. Our private party packages are booked by duration and include a maximum painter capacity (e.g., 1 hour includes up to 25 painters).If you need more time or want to accommodate more guests than your original package allows, you can upgrade to a larger package with at least 48 hours' notice (subject to schedule and supply availability). Please note that packages are flat-rate time blocks and cannot be downgraded once booked.
