Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Most of our participants have never picked up a spray can before. Our professional artists break down the process into easy-to-follow steps, from basic nozzle control to complex shading. We provide a supportive, relaxed environment in Newcastle where everyone can feel confident expressing themselves, regardless of their previous artistic experience or skill level.

Is the workshop safe and what should I wear?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep you and your clothes safe. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas, and we use professional-grade spray paint. Our instructors are seasoned pros who provide a full safety briefing before any paint is sprayed, ensuring a fun and worry-free experience for everyone involved.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

A standard cultural workshop in Newcastle typically lasts between 2 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final masterpiece. We can also customise the duration to fit your event schedule, offering shorter 'taster' sessions or more intensive half-day masterclasses depending on your group's needs and goals.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We are hugely flexible! Whether you are a small group of friends or a large organisation planning a massive cultural festival, we can accommodate you. For very large groups, we bring in additional backup artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention and guidance. There is no upper limit—the more the merrier when it comes to bringing Newcastle's walls to life!

Where in Newcastle do the workshops take place?

We can host workshops at various trendy outdoor and indoor locations across Newcastle, or we can come to you! If you have a specific venue in mind—like a community centre, school playground, or private event space—we can set up our mobile graffiti walls. We just need a well-ventilated area and permission from the property owner to get the creativity flowing.

What is your booking and cancellation policy?

We understand that plans can change. Unlike many other providers, we don't require upfront payment to secure your booking. You pay after the workshop is completed and you are 100% satisfied. We also have a team of backup artists ready to step in, so you never have to worry about a cancellation from our side—your event is in safe hands!

Local culture

Newcastle has a gritty, industrial heart that has long served as a canvas for incredible street art. From the iconic murals in the Ouseburn Valley—Newcastle's undisputed creative quarter—to the hidden gems tucked away near the Quayside, the city breathes creativity. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, celebrating the transition from the city's coal-mining heritage to its modern status as a cultural powerhouse. We don't just teach you to paint; we connect you with the "Toon's" unique artistic pulse.

Fun Fact: Newcastle is home to several legal "free walls" where the landscape of city art changes almost daily, making it one of the most dynamic street art scenes in the UK!
