Do I need previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely not! Our Zanzibar graffiti workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners who have never held a spray can to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic lines and moving up to complex fills and highlights. The goal is to have fun, express yourself, and learn something new in a supportive, high-energy environment.

What materials are provided in the cultural event workshop?

Everything you need for a fantastic creative experience is included. We provide premium spray cans in a wide array of vibrant colours, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or designated wall space for your masterpiece. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some old shoes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on!

How long does the graffiti workshop usually last?

For our cultural events in Zanzibar City, we typically host sessions lasting between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a thorough introduction to graffiti culture, a safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of your artwork. We can also customise the duration to fit the specific schedule of your festival or community gathering.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality, professional-grade spray paints and provide all necessary safety gear, including high-quality masks and gloves. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas to ensure everyone breathes easy. Our expert instructors also provide a comprehensive safety induction before anyone touches a can, ensuring a worry-free environment for all ages and skill levels.

Where in Zanzibar City do the workshops take place?

We are extremely flexible! While we often work at vibrant outdoor locations in Zanzibar City, we can also bring the workshop to you. Whether it’s a beach resort, a community centre, or a private event space, we can set up temporary 'graffiti walls' using specialised plastic film or wooden panels. This allows us to create a pop-up street art studio virtually anywhere you want.

How does the 'pay afterwards' policy work?

We believe in the quality of our experience so much that we don't require upfront payments for most bookings. You can book your session, get everything organised, and only pay after the workshop is complete. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the creative explosion we bring to your event. We also have backup artists ready to go to ensure your event never gets cancelled.

Can we combine this with other local Zanzibar activities?

Zanzibar City is a hub for culture! While we focus on street art, we can easily integrate local Zanzibari motifs into our designs. If you want to combine the workshop with other activities like a spice tour or a visit to Stone Town, we can recommend local partners. Our graffiti workshops are a perfect modern addition to a day spent exploring the island's deep historical roots.

Local culture

Zanzibar City is a place where every winding alleyway in Stone Town tells a story through carved wooden doors and ancient coral stone walls. By bringing a graffiti workshop here, we are adding a brand-new chapter to that story! We love blending the intricate geometric patterns found in local Henna art with the bold, flowing lines of modern graffiti. It’s a cultural mashup that celebrates both the old and the new. 🔥

Fun fact: Did you know that the vibrant textiles known as 'Kanga' often feature bold patterns and hidden proverbs? These are a huge inspiration for our Zanzibar workshops, where we encourage participants to hide their own secret messages inside their graffiti tags!

From the bustling vibes of Darajani Market to the serene blue horizons of the Indian Ocean, the island's palette is reflected in the spray cans we choose for you. We don't just paint; we celebrate the "Zenj" spirit through every stroke and splatter. ✨
