Is this workshop suitable for children and teenagers?

Absolutely! Our Auckland anti-vandalism workshops are designed for everyone, from primary school students to corporate teams. We tailor the message and the difficulty level to suit the age and background of the participants. For younger groups, we focus on the 'fun of creation' and respecting public spaces, while for older groups, we dive deeper into the history of street art and the importance of community permission. Everyone gets to spray!

What safety measures do you have in place during the session?

Safety is our top priority in the City of Sails. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint, and our expert instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can. We typically host these sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated workshops to ensure a safe environment for all participants.

Do I need any prior artistic experience to participate?

Not at all! You don't need to be the next Dick Frizzell to enjoy this. Our professional graffiti artists are masters at teaching the basics. We start with simple techniques—like how to hold the can and control the pressure—before moving on to letters and filling. By the end of the session, even those who claim they 'can't draw a stick figure' are usually amazed at the vibrant piece of art they've created.

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

We understand that Auckland weather can be a bit 'four seasons in one day.' If the weather turns pearly, we have several options. We can move the workshop to a covered outdoor area, utilize an indoor space with proper ventilation, or reschedule to a better day. We also have backup artists available to ensure your event goes ahead even if there’s a last-minute change. We’ll always work with you to find the best solution.

How long does a typical anti-vandalism workshop last?

The duration is flexible to fit your schedule, but most Auckland sessions last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for the educational talk about legal vs. illegal art, a demonstration of spray painting techniques, and plenty of hands-on time for everyone to create their own masterpiece. If you're looking for a more intensive team-building experience, we can certainly extend the program to include collaborative mural projects.

How do I book and what are the payment terms?

We make it as easy as possible for you. There’s no upfront payment required to book your session in Auckland; you simply pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied. We offer transparent pricing based on your group size and location. To get an accurate estimate, you can use our online Cost Calculator or reach out to us for a personalized, no-obligation quote today!

The experience

Why choose an anti-vandalism program for your next Auckland event? It’s more than just a painting lesson—it's a way to foster community pride and creative responsibility. Here’s why it works:

🔥 Turn "noise" into art: We teach how to channel the urge to tag into structured, beautiful street art.
🎨 Professional mentors: Learn directly from active Auckland artists who know the local scene inside out.
🏆 Build confidence: There’s nothing like the buzz of seeing your own large-scale artwork come to life.
✨ Hands-on education: We tackle the 'why' behind vandalism laws in a way that respects and engages the youth.
💪 Stress relief: Spraying paint is an incredibly cathartic and rewarding physical activity.
🎉 Guaranteed fun: We haven't met a group yet that didn't leave with a massive smile and a sense of achievement!

Step by step

The kōrero: We start with an engaging talk about the difference between tagging (vandalism) and street art (authorized expression), emphasizing respect for Auckland's local architecture.
Safety first: Get geared up in your protective suits, gloves, and masks while our pro artists walk you through the 'dos and don'ts' of using spray cans.
Master the can: Learn how to handle the spray can, control the nozzle for thin or thick lines, and manage 'drips' like a seasoned pro.
Sketching your ideas: Grab a marker and plan your design on your canvas or wall space, focusing on letters, shapes, and flow.
First layers: Start filling in your shapes with your primary colours, learning how to blend and fade for that classic street art look.
The outline: Watch your piece pop as you add sharp outlines to bring structure to your creation.
Highlights and details: Add those final touches—shines, 'power-lines', and small details that make your artwork unique.
The gallery walk: We wrap up by reviewing everyone's work, discussing the creative process, and reinforcing the message of positive community contribution.

Good to know

Group sizes: From small groups of 10 to large-scale community events of 100+ people.
Duration: Standard sessions are 1.5 to 3 hours, but we can customise this to your schedule.
What's included: Professional artists, all spray paint, canvases/walls, masks, gloves, and protective suits.
Location: We come to you! We can host workshops at your school, office, or a local Auckland park (with permits).
Safety: We use high-quality, low-odour paints and provide full respiratory protection for all participants.

Local culture

Auckland has a rich history of street art, from the iconic murals in Karangahape Road to the hidden gems in the laneways of the CBD. However, we also know the frustration that unwanted tagging can cause for local businesses and residents. Our program bridges that gap, teaching participants to appreciate the artistry of local legends like Askew One while understanding the importance of protecting Auckland's unique heritage and public spaces. We often draw inspiration from the natural beauty of the Hauraki Gulf and the volcanic cones that define our skyline.

Fun Fact: Did you know Auckland is home to one of the largest street art festivals in the Southern Hemisphere? Art reaches every corner of our city, from the posh suburbs to the industrial heartlands!
