Do I need to have any artistic skills to join?

Absolutely not! Our Heraklion anti-vandalism workshop is designed for complete beginners. Our professional graffiti artists will guide you through everything from how to hold a spray can to mastering complex lettering. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before, and they always leave with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of. We focus on technique, safety, and most importantly, having a blast while learning.

Is it safe and do you provide protective gear?

We take safety very seriously. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP2 masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. The workshop takes place in well-ventilated outdoor areas in Heraklion. Our spray paints are professional-grade but used under strict supervision. We ensure that the environment is controlled and that everyone follows the safety protocols to ensure a fun, hazard-free creative session.

How does a workshop help prevent vandalism?

The core message of our program is 'Creation over Destruction'. By giving people a legal, high-quality outlet to express themselves, the urge to illegally mark walls decreases. We teach the history of street art and the respect that exists within the community for public and private property. When people understand the effort required to create art, they are much more likely to respect the urban environment of Heraklion.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard anti-vandalism workshop in Heraklion typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief introduction to graffiti culture, a safety demonstration, practicing basic techniques on plastic film or boards, and finally, creating a large-scale collaborative mural. If you have specific time constraints for a school or corporate group, we can easily adapt the schedule to fit your needs.

What is the minimum or maximum group size?

We are very flexible! While we often work with schools and youth groups, this program is fantastic for corporate team building, bachelor parties, or even festivals. We can host small groups or large events with dozens of participants. For very large groups, we bring in multiple professional artists to ensure everyone gets enough individual attention and coaching. Just let us know your group size and we will handle the rest.

Where exactly in Heraklion do the workshops take place?

Most of our Heraklion workshops are held at specially designated outdoor locations where we use temporary walls or plastic film structures. This allows us to create 'legal' street art without any permanent impact on the site. However, if you have a private wall or a specific location in mind (and you have the proper permits), our team can travel to you. We bring all the necessary equipment to set up a mobile street art studio.

Is there an age limit for the participants?

In Heraklion, we generally recommend our workshops for participants aged 8 and up. Spraying requires a bit of finger strength and the ability to follow safety instructions regarding the masks. For younger children, we offer adapted programs with water-based markers or shorter sessions. It is a brilliant activity for teenagers, as it speaks their language and provides a cool, constructive way to spend an afternoon.

First strokes: Practice makes perfect! You'll start on a practice surface to get the feel of the paint before moving to the main mural.
The fill-in: This is the satisfying part where we add vibrant colours to our shapes and characters.
The outline & highlights: Our pros show you how to add those sharp 'power lines' and highlights that make the art pop.
The grand reveal: We take a step back, admire the massive collaborative work, and snap some epic group photos.

Local culture

Heraklion is a city of layers—from the Minoan ruins of Knossos to the heavy masonry of the Koules Fortress. In recent years, the city's modern walls have become a canvas for incredible Mediterranean street art. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, encouraging participants to add to the city's beauty rather than cluttering it with haphazard tags. We often find inspiration in the bright Cretan sun and the deep blues of the Aegean Sea. ☀️

Fun Fact: Did you know Heraklion has hosted dedicated street art festivals near the port? The city is becoming a hub for Greek graffiti artists who use their work to comment on history and modern life.

By participating in our program, you're joining a movement that respects the architectural heritage of Heraklion while embracing the pulse of modern Crete. Whether you’re inspired by the Labyrinth or the local street culture, we help you translate that vibe onto the canvas. 🎨

Art should be accessible to everyone! Our Heraklion graffiti experiences are priced competitively to ensure your group gets the best value for an unforgettable day. 💰

Price range: €20 - €45 per person.
Variable factors: Total price depends on group size, duration, and the specific location/setup.
