Do I need any prior drawing or painting experience?

Absolutely not! Our Surabaya workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a stick figure to seasoned illustrators. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics of spray can control, lettering, and filling. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It's all about letting loose, having a laugh, and discovering a creative side you never knew existed. ✨

What equipment is provided in the workshop?

We’ve got you covered! We provide high-quality spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective overalls, gloves, and masks. Depending on the event setup, we provide either large wooden panels, canvases, or designated legal street art walls. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and maybe some old shoes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on. We handle the setup and the cleanup! 🧤

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

The safety of our participants is our top priority. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control and provide professional-grade masks and gloves to ensure a safe breathing environment and clean hands. Our artists are highly experienced in managing groups and will give a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can. We ensure the workspace is well-ventilated and spacious for everyone’s comfort. 🛡️

How long does a typical session last?

Our cultural event workshops typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the creation of a final collaborative or individual piece. If you have a specific schedule for your event in Surabaya, we can often tailor the duration to fit your itinerary perfectly. Just let us know what works best! ⏱️

Can the workshop be held indoors or only outdoors?

Graffiti is a versatile art form! While we love outdoor sessions to get that authentic street vibe, we can also host workshops indoors if the venue has adequate ventilation or if we use specialized water-based, low-odour spray paints. For events at hotels or convention centres in Surabaya, we often set up mobile walls with protective flooring to ensure the venue remains spotless while the creativity flows. 🏢

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

Surabaya weather can be unpredictable, but the fun doesn't have to stop! If we are scheduled for an outdoor session and it rains, we usually try to move to a covered area or use a backup indoor location. We also have a solid network of backup artists, so even if an instructor is unwell, your cultural event will go ahead as planned. Your creative experience is guaranteed! 🌦️

Do I need to pay in advance to book?

We believe in 'try before you buy'—or rather, 'pay after you play'! You don't need to make any upfront payments to secure your booking. Once the workshop is finished and you’re buzzing from your creative session, we handle the payment. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience we've delivered in the City of Heroes. Transparency and trust are key to our service. 💳

Local culture

Surabaya, known as the "City of Heroes," has a grit and soul that perfectly matches the world of graffiti. From the historic streets near the Red Bridge to the modern creative hubs popping up around the city, Sukorejo to Darmo, there is a deep appreciation for art that tells a story. The local street art scene here is a beautiful blend of traditional Indonesian pride and modern global influences.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Surabaya is home to some of the most impressive large-scale murals in East Java? The city often uses street art to revitalise old neighbourhoods, turning blank concrete into outdoor galleries that celebrate local heritage and heroes! 🇮🇩
