How does a graffiti workshop actually prevent vandalism?

Our anti-vandalism workshop in Dunedin is a positive, hands-on experience where we teach the difference between illegal tagging and street art. We focus on the history of the culture, the skill required to create murals, and providing a legal workspace for self-expression. By giving participants a sense of ownership and technical pride, we naturally foster respect for public property and community spaces.

Do participants need any prior art experience?

Absolutely! We welcome everyone from Dunedin schools, youth groups, or community organisations, regardless of their artistic background. Our professional artists are pros at teaching the basics to total beginners. We guide you through every step—from holding the can correctly to mastering complex 'fades' and 'outlines'. You’ll be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive with the right pointers!

Is the spray paint safe to use for young people?

Safety is our top priority. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP3 respirators, protective overalls, and gloves to ensure a clean and safe environment. We only use professional-grade spray paints in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated workshops. Our artists also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring a fun, worry-free session for everyone involved.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard anti-vandalism session in Dunedin usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction to street art ethics, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on practice. We can adjust the duration to fit your specific schedule, whether it’s a quick school session or an intensive half-day community workshop.

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

We usually run our Dunedin workshops outdoors to ensure the best ventilation and authentic street art vibes. However, we have backup plans for those classic 'Dunner' rainy days! We can set up under large gazebos or move to indoor locations with specialized extraction if needed. We also have a roster of backup artists to ensure your event goes ahead no matter what.

What is the maximum group size for a local session?

For our Dunedin workshops, we can accommodate anything from small groups of 10 to large-scale events with over 100 participants. We maintain a high artist-to-student ratio to ensure everyone gets personal guidance. If you have a particularly large group, we simply bring in more of our expert artists to keep the energy high and the learning focused.

How does the payment and booking process work?

We make it easy for you. There is no upfront payment required to book your workshop—you only pay after the session is completed and everyone is happy with the results. We also offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If the workshop doesn't meet your expectations for fun and creativity, we'll work with you to make it right. Your peace of mind is vital to us.

Local culture

Dunedin is New Zealand's unofficial wildlife and street art capital! From the towering murals on the Heritage Way to the hidden gems in Vogel Street, the Dunedin Street Art Trail has put our city on the international map. We love the quirky, gothic vibe of the CBD and the raw energy of the student North End. Our workshops tap into this local heritage, encouraging participants to contribute to the city's visual story in a legal, respectful way.

Fun Fact: Did you know some of the world’s most famous street artists, like Phlegm and ROA, have left their mark on Dunedin's historic buildings? We're lucky to live in a giant open-air gallery! 🐧
