What should I wear to a graffiti workshop in Nantes?

Comfort is key! We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a little 'colourful'. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or shoes. Think of your outfit as a badge of honour from your creative journey through the streets of Nantes!

Do I need any previous art experience?

Not at all! Our onboarding workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional artists will guide you through everything from holding the can to advanced shading techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created, regardless of your previous artistic experience or 'drawing' ability. It's all about the flow!

Is it safe to use spray paint indoors?

Your safety is our priority. We provide professional-grade masks and gloves to ensure a safe environment. We typically host our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated street art zones across Nantes. Our artists give a full safety briefing before any cans are shaken, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and protected throughout the experience.

How long does the graffiti session last?

Our standard onboarding workshops in Nantes usually last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us plenty of time for the introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final piece. If you have a specific schedule or are combining this with a larger team event, we can easily customise the duration to fit your needs.

Do I have to pay in advance?

We believe in 'no stress' booking! You don't need to pay anything upfront. Once we've agreed on the date and details, your booking is confirmed. Payment is only handled after the workshop is complete and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. It’s our way of guaranteeing you have a brilliant time with us.

Can you host workshops for large groups or corporate events?

Absolutely! While our onboarding workshops are perfect for individuals and small groups, we also cater to schools, festivals, and corporate brand activations. If you are looking for a unique stag or hen do activity or a creative company outing in Nantes, we have bespoke packages ready to go. Just let us know your group size!

What materials are included in the price?

Everything is included! We provide the spray paint in a rainbow of colours, protective gear (overalls, gloves, masks), and the 'canvas' (either a wall or boards). You just need to bring your enthusiasm and a bit of creative energy. We even take care of the site preparation and post-workshop tidy-up.

The experience

Why choose an onboarding workshop in the heart of the Loire? Because Nantes is the ultimate playground for the creative mind! Here’s why you’ll love it:

Professional Mentorship: Learn from real Nantes-based artists who know every trick in the book. 🎤
Complete Freedom: There are no mistakes in graffiti, only 'happy accidents' and new layers. 🔥
Authentic Locations: We spray in spots that capture the true urban soul of the city.
All-Inclusive: Just show up! We handle the mess, the gear, and the cleanup. 🏆
Perfect for Everyone: Whether you're here for a kids party or a company event, we scale the fun to fit you.

Step by step

Arrival and meet-up: Meet your pro-artist at our designated Nantes street art spot. We'll start with a quick intro to the history of the local scene.
Safety first: Suit up! We provide your overalls, gloves, and masks. Your artist will explain how to use the equipment safely and responsibly.
The basics of the can: Learn the 'anatomy' of a spray can. Practice your first lines, dots, and controlled sprays to get a feel for the pressure.
Sketching your concept: Use chalk or light spray to outline your design on the wall. Our artists will help you refine your ideas into a sprayable format.
Fill-ins and fades: This is where the magic happens. Learn how to fill large areas smoothly and create those iconic graffiti colour gradients.
Outlining and highlights: Add the 'pop' to your art. We'll show you how to use 3D effects and sharp outlines to make your masterpiece stand out.
The finishing touches: Add 'highlights' and 'lowlights' to give your work depth and character. This is the stage where your personal style really shines through.
Group photo and critique: Step back and admire the collective work! We’ll take plenty of photos of you and your crew in front of your finished art.

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 2.5 hours — plenty of time to get your hands dirty! ⏱️

Local culture

Nantes isn't just a city; it’s a living gallery. From the sprawling murals throughout the Ile de Nantes to the underground spirit of the Quai des Antilles, street art is woven into the very fabric of the city. Our workshops take place in areas where creativity is encouraged, giving you an authentic taste of the Nantes 'artistic voyage'.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Nantes hosts the 'Voyage à Nantes' every summer, where the entire city becomes an art trail? Our workshop lets you experience that same spirit of discovery year-round! 🐘🇫🇷

If you're looking for more inspiration, we can even recommend the best spots in town to see works by world-renowned artists who have left their footprint in the Loire Valley. After your session, you'll never look at a wall in Nantes the same way again!

Pricing

Our workshop prices are as flexible as our art. Depending on your group size and the specific setup of your session, prices typically range from:

€30 - €65 per person

This includes all your materials and professional coaching. No hidden fees, and remember: no upfront payment is required! You only pay once the creativity is flowing and you're happy with the results.
