About the Splatter Bus
A Creative Mess on Wheels—Just How We Like It
The Splatter Bus is Ottawa’s one-of-a-kind mobile art studio, built for people who want to make a joyful mess, connect with their people, and leave behind something beautiful. We’re all about accessible creativity, explosive colour, and the kind of laughter that only comes when paint hits your best friend (on purpose, of course).
We believe art isn’t about perfection. It’s about play. It’s about smashing the rules, getting your hands dirty, and discovering how good it feels to create something—together.
Whether you’re hosting a birthday bash, planning the most unforgettable bachelorette party ever, or looking for a team-building experience that doesn’t suck, the Splatter Bus rolls in with the good vibes and the paint bombs fully loaded.
Meet Sarah – Chaos Gremlin. Art Witch. Creative Instigator.
Hi, I’m Sarah—the artist, educator, and certified bringer of beautifully chaotic energy behind the Splatter Bus. I believe everyone is creative, whether they know it yet or not. Over the years, I’ve run workshops, built art shows, raised six incredible kids, and created wild, whimsical spaces where people can just be.
The Splatter Bus is part dream, part performance art, and part heartfelt rebellion against the idea that art has to happen in a white-walled gallery. It doesn’t. It can happen in a parking lot, at your wedding, or in the middle of a cornfield.
This bus is more than a business. It’s a movement. A moving reminder that art belongs to everyone.
What We Value
Play: Making art should feel like recess, not homework.
Connection: Whether it's a date night or a family free-for-all, we create space for people to show up and create together.
Accessibility: No fancy skills required. Just show up and splatter.
Joy: Not the polished, Instagram-ready kind—but the real, goofy, full-hearted joy of being alive and creative.
