Do I need any prior art experience to join?

No experience is needed at all! Our Melbourne graffiti workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional local artists will guide you through every step, from how to hold the spray can to mastering complex 'wildstyle' techniques. Whether you've never picked up a can or you're a casual sketcher, you'll leave the session with a piece of art you're genuinely proud of and some serious street cred.

How do you handle safety and protective gear?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paints and conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specialized studios. Our artists provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a fun, secure, and worry-free creative environment for everyone involved.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

The duration of our cultural events usually ranges between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows enough room for an introduction to graffiti history, a demonstration of techniques, plenty of practice time, and the final creation of your masterpiece. We can also tailor the length of the session to fit your specific event schedule, whether it's a quick festival pop-up or a deep-dive afternoon workshop.

What is included in the price of the workshop?

Everything is included! When you book with Graffitifun, we provide all the premium spray paint, high-quality canvases or boards, protective gear, and expert tuition. You don't need to bring any supplies yourself. Just show up in comfortable clothes you don't mind getting a bit of dust on, and we’ll handle the rest. We even bring the inspiration and music to get the creative vibes flowing.

Is there a minimum or maximum group size?

We are incredibly flexible! Since we have a large team of backup artists across Australia, we can host workshops for small private groups of 10 or massive corporate and festival crowds of hundreds. Whether you’re looking for an intimate team-building session or a large-scale community activation in the heart of Melbourne, we have the resources and the talent to scale our experience to suit your group perfectly.

What is the age limit for participants?

Generally, we recommend participants be at least 8 years old to ensure they can handle the spray cans effectively and follow safety instructions. However, we offer specialized programs for younger kids that use more age-appropriate materials. Graffiti is a fantastic multi-generational activity, making it perfect for family days, school outings, or community festivals where people of all ages want to get involved in the local art scene.

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

Melbourne weather can be a bit unpredictable (four seasons in one day, right?). Most of our preferred locations have undercover options or indoor studio spaces available. If we are planning an outdoor event and the weather looks truly nasty, we’ll work with you to move to a sheltered spot or reschedule the session. With our team of backup artists, we are always prepared to make sure the paint keeps flowing.

Local culture

Melbourne is widely regarded as one of the street art capitals of the world. From the iconic, ever-changing walls of Hosier Lane to the hidden gems in Fitzroy and Collingwood, the city breathes creativity. Our workshops tap into this local legacy, connecting you with artists who have been part of this scene for years. We celebrate the unique 'Melbourne Style'—a mix of stencil work, massive murals, and classic graffiti tags that define our laneway culture.

Fun Fact: Did you know Melbourne was one of the first cities in the world to officially recognize street art as a significant cultural asset? Some of our laneways are actually protected to ensure the art continues to thrive! 🇦🇺
