What happens if it rains during our Durban graffiti workshop?

Durban's weather is usually amazing, but if the heavens open, we've got you covered! We either move the workshop to a sheltered outdoor area or an indoor space with proper ventilation. Our artists are pros at adapting to the environment, so your cultural event will go off without a hitch, rain or shine. Plus, we have backup artists ready just in case!

Do I need to be artistic or have painted before?

Absolutely no experience is needed! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to creative souls. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, from holding the can correctly to mastering complex shading. It’s all about having fun, expressing yourself, and learning something new in a relaxed, supportive atmosphere. You'll be surprised at what you can create!

What materials are included in the workshop package?

We provide everything you need to create your masterpiece! This includes high-quality spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gear like gloves and masks, and the surface you'll be painting on (canvases or boards). We recommend wearing old clothes and takkies just in case, but we handle all the specialized equipment so you can just show up and spray!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for all participants?

Safety is our number one priority. We use high-quality low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control, and we provide all necessary protective gear, including masks and gloves. Our instructors are experienced professionals who monitor the group at all times, ensuring everyone uses the equipment correctly and stays safe while having a blast. It's a controlled, professional environment for all ages.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard cultural event workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final artwork. We can also customize the duration to fit your specific event schedule in Durban, whether you want a quick teaser session or a deep-dive masterclass into street art culture.

How do I book and when do I need to pay?

Booking is super easy! Since we don't require any upfront payment, you can reserve your date with total peace of mind. Simply reach out to us for a custom quote based on your group size. Once the details are sparked, we'll lock it in. You only pay after the workshop is completed, ensuring 100% satisfaction with your Durban street art experience.
