Do I need to be good at drawing to join the workshop?

Nah, you don't need any art skills at all! Most of our Hamilton workshop guests haven't touched a spray can since high school (if ever). Our pro artists break everything down into easy steps, from how to hold the can to making those cool 'drips' on purpose. We focus on having a laugh and being creative, so whether you're a stick-figure expert or a secret Picasso, you'll walk away with something awesome.🎨

Is it safe to use spray paint indoors or outdoors?

Safety first, always! We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean and your lungs clear. We only use pro-grade spray paint, and our Hamilton crew will give you a full safety briefing before anyone starts spraying. We've run thousands of these sessions across the country and Europe, so you're in very safe, experienced hands while you're getting your geek on.💪

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable gear and old sneakers that you don't mind getting a tiny speck of paint on—just in case! While we provide full protective overalls, graffiti is a messy business. If you've got long hair, tie it back, and maybe leave the designer handbags at home. Once you're suited up, you'll look like a pro street artist ready to tackle the walls of the Tron!✨

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard onboarding and team-building workshops in Hamilton usually run between 1.5 and 3 hours. It sounds like a while, but the time absolutely flies once the music is pumping and the paint starts flowing! We spend the first bit on techniques and the rest of the time on your masterpiece. If you're on a tight schedule for a corporate event, just let us know and we can tweak the timing.⏱️

Can you host the workshop at our office or a specific venue?

Absolutely! While we have awesome local spots we use in Hamilton, we are fully mobile. If you've got a warehouse, a carpark, or a big backyard with permission, we can bring the whole setup to you. We'll handle the boards, the drop sheets, and all the gear so your property stays exactly how it was—except for the cool new art you've created on our mobile walls!🚚

What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor workshop?

Rain is a bit of a buzzkill for paint, but it won't stop the fun! If the Hamilton weather turns classic 'four seasons in one day' on us, we usually move to a sheltered outdoor area or an indoor space with proper ventilation. We always have a backup plan ready to go, so your event will happen regardless of what the clouds are doing over the Waikato River. Weather won't stop the creativity!🌧️

How do I pay, and do I need to pay a deposit?

We make it easy as! You don't have to pay a cent upfront to secure your date. We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you simply pay after the session is done and everyone is stoked with their work. This keeps things low-stress for organisers, especially for big corporate groups or schools in the Waikato area. Just book it in, and we'll handle the rest!💳

Step by step

The intro: Meet your pro graffiti artist and get a quick rundown of the history of street art in New Zealand.

Sketching: Move to the wall or canvas and sketch out your design using light colours under the guidance of our mentors.
Fill it in: Start adding vibrant colours to your piece. This is where the Hamilton energy really starts to show!
The outline: Use black or dark colours to make your design pop. It’s the "magic moment" where it all comes together.
Highlights & flares: Add the finishing touches—shine, shadows, and extra details that give your art that pro look.
Photo op: Strike a pose with your finished masterpiece! Our crew will grab some epic group shots for the 'gram.
The cleanup: We take care of all the gear and rubbish, leaving you with only the memories and your artwork.

Hamiltonians have a unique, down-to-earth creativity, and it shows in every piece created here. 🏙️
