Is it messy to do a graffiti workshop at a food festival?

Absolutely! We use high-quality spray paints, but we also provide comprehensive protective gear including suits, gloves, and masks. Our Gondar instructors are professionals who prioritize safety and cleanliness. Whether we are setting up near a Shiro stall or a coffee ceremony, we ensure the surrounding area stays pristine while you focus on your masterpiece.

Do I need to be an artist to join the fun?

No talent? No problem! Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before. Our expert artists will guide you through the basics, from holding the can to creating clean lines and fades. By the time you finish your first injera of the day, you'll be ready to paint like a pro. It’s all about the experience and having fun!

Do you provide all the materials needed for the workshop?

Yes, we bring everything! From dozens of vibrant spray paint colors to protective clothing and professional-grade canvases or temporary walls. You just need to bring your appetite for food and creativity. We handle the logistics so the food festival organizers can focus on the delicious Ethiopian cuisine being served.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard interactive session usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours, but for food festivals in Gondar, we often run 'walk-in' style stations that last the whole day. This allows visitors to drop in for 20 minutes between snacks or stay for a full hour to complete a larger piece of street art.

Can you host these workshops in other Ethiopian cities?

Definitely! We love the vibe of other Ethiopian cities. While we are currently highlighting Gondar, Graffitifun also organizes creative activations in Addis Ababa, Dire Dawa, Mekelle, and Adama. If there is a food festival happening anywhere in Ethiopia, we are ready to pack our cans and bring the color!

Is the paint safe to use around food stalls?

Of course! We use water-based, low-odor paints for indoor events to ensure there are no harsh fumes near the food. For outdoor festivals at the Fasil Ghebbi outskirts or local parks, we use standard professional street art paint. We always coordinate with the festival organizers to ensure the best placement for airflow and safety.

How much does it cost to book a workshop in Gondar?

We offer various pricing tiers starting from Br1500 per person, depending on the group size and the complexity of the setup. For large-scale Gondar food festivals, we provide custom packages that cover hundreds of participants throughout the weekend. Just reach out for a custom quote and we'll find a fit for your budget.

Local culture

Gondar isn't just about ancient history and the breathtaking Fasil Ghebbi; it's a city with a soul that appreciates beauty in all forms. Bringing street art to a food festival here creates a bridge between the majestic stones of our past and the vibrant energy of Ethiopia's future. Our workshops often take inspiration from the intricate patterns found in local churches and the bold colors of the highland landscapes.

Fun Fact: While Gondar is famous for its 17th-century castles, it’s also known for "Azmari" music—improvised, witty, and creative. We like to think of graffiti as the visual version of an Azmari song: spontaneous, colorful, and full of local spirit! 🎤✨
