Local culture
Street art in Philadelphia
Philadelphia isn't just a city; it's an open-air gallery. As the birthplace of the modern mural movement in the US, Philly's streets are pulsing with visual energy. From the iconic works of the Mural Arts Program to the hidden gems in Fishtown and South Philly, inspiration is around every corner. Our workshops tap into this rich heritage, giving you a chance to contribute to the city's creative legacy. 🎨
In our sessions, we often reference local legends and the evolution of the "Philly Hand" style into the complex 3D structures we see today. You'll feel the grit and the glory of the city's art scene as you spray, creating a connection to the streets that goes far beyond a standard tourist stop. 🔥
Pricing
Our workshop prices are as vibrant as our paint! Generally, you can expect a range of $35 to $75 per person. The final price depends on your group size, the length of the session, and whether you want to work on a collective mural or individual canvases you can take home. đź’°
We believe in transparency and flexibility, which is why we offer a pay-after-the-workshop policy. No stress, no upfront costs—just pure creative fun!
