Do we need to have any prior drawing skills to join?

Absolutely! No previous artistic experience or 'drawing' skill is required. Our professional artists are experts at teaching the basics to beginners. By the end of the session, everyone will have created a piece of art they can be proud of. It’s all about having a go, learning a new skill, and enjoying the creative process during the holiday break!

Is the workshop safe for children and teenagers?

We take safety very seriously. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. Our spray paints are selected to be as safe as possible for group use. Additionally, our instructors are trained in workshop safety, ensuring that every participant can focus on the fun without any worries about their well-tending!

What is the minimum age for participants?

For our school holiday workshops in Mons, we generally recommend a minimum age of 8 years old. This ensures that the participants have the physical strength to press the spray nozzles and the focus to follow the safety instructions. However, we can often adapt sessions for slightly younger children if they are accompanied by an adult. Just ask!

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

The Great Belgian weather can be unpredictable! If we are scheduled for an outdoor session and it rains, we usually have backup indoor locations or can set up professional pop-up shelters. We also have a network of backup artists to ensure your workshop goes ahead no matter what. We always aim to keep the creative energy flowing, rain or shine!

How do I book and is there an upfront payment?

Booking is super easy and flexible. You can request a quote through our website using our cost calculator. We don't require any upfront payment – you only pay after the workshop is complete. This gives you peace of mind and flexibility while planning your holiday schedule. Once you confirm, we handle all the logistics!

What is included in the workshop price?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes a wide variety of professional spray paint colours, caps (nozzles), protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the canvases or surfaces you'll be painting on. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and perhaps some old shoes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on!

Can the participants take their artwork home?

Yes! If the workshop is conducted on individual canvases or boards, participants are more than welcome to take their masterpieces home to show off to friends and family. If we are working on a large collective mural, we'll make sure to take high-quality photos so everyone has a digital memory of the incredible work they created together in Mons.

Schritt für Schritt

Intro and safety briefing: We kick things off with a warm welcome and a quick rundown on how to use the equipment safely and professionally.
Design brainstorming: Our artist helps the group brainstorm a theme or a 'tag' name, sketching out basic ideas on paper first to get the creative juices flowing.
Can control basics: Before hitting the main wall, you'll learn the 'zen' of the spray can—how to shake it, how to hold it, and how to control the pressure.
Lines and shapes: Practise making thin lines, fat lines, and dots. It’s harder than it looks but incredibly satisfying once you get the hang of it!
Filling and blending: Learn the secrets of 'filling in' your shapes and creating those iconic street art colour gradients and fades.
The 'Outlining' phase: This is where the magic happens! We show you how to add sharp outlines to make your graffiti art really pop off the surface.
Adding highlights and 3D effects: Learn how to add 'shine' and shadows to give your artwork depth and a professional finish.
The grand reveal: Step back, drop the cans, and admire the collective masterpiece created by the group. It's the perfect photo op!
Clean up and wrap: We handle the tidy-up while you bask in your new-found status as a Mons street artist.

Lokale Kultur

Mons is a city that perfectly blends its rich medieval history with a vibrant, modern art scene. Known for the stunning Grand Place and the iconic Beffroi, Mons became the European Capital of Culture in 2015, which sparked a massive surge in local urban art. Walking through the streets, you'll find incredible murals that tell stories of the city's heritage mixed with contemporary flair. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, encouraging participants to draw inspiration from the city's unique architectural lines and its festive atmosphere.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Mons is home to the 'Doudou' festival? Much like the vibrant costumes of the Lumeçon combat, graffiti is all about bold colours and rhythmic movement—making Mons the perfect backdrop for a street art revolution! 🎨

Preise

Our graffiti experiences are designed to be accessible and affordable for holiday programmes. Prices usually range between €25 and €55 per person, depending on the number of participants, the duration of the session, and the specific materials required (like individual canvases to take home). Plus, we believe in trust—there is no upfront payment required; you only pay once the workshop is finished!
