Do I need any prior art experience to join the pop-up workshop?

Absolutely not! Our Heraklion pop-up workshops are designed for everyone from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics of handling a spray can, from simple lines to complex shading techniques. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before, but they always walk away with a piece of art they're proud of. It's all about having fun and trying something new!

What materials are included in the workshop fee?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes high-quality spray paint in a massive range of colours, professional-grade masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or surfaces you'll be painting on. Just bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control and provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't breathing in fumes. Our sessions are usually held in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or large open halls. Our instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a worry-free experience for creators of all ages.

What should I wear to the graffiti event?

While we provide protective overalls, we always recommend wearing 'work clothes'—items you wouldn't mind getting a stray splash of paint on. High-quality spray paint is permanent, and while the overalls cover most of you, it's better to be safe than sorry. Avoid your brand-new designer trainers and opt for something practical! We'll handle the rest of the protection for you.

Where exactly in Heraklion do these workshops take place?

Graffiti workshops are a fantastic addition to commercial events, festivals, or private parties in Heraklion. Because we operate as a pop-up, we can bring the entire experience to your venue, or you can join one of our pre-scheduled public sessions. If you have a specific location in mind, like a hotel courtyard or a corporate car park, just let us know and we'll check the suitability!

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard pop-up workshops usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a warm-up, a demo of techniques, plenty of practice time, and the creation of your final masterpiece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where people stay energised and inspired without getting tired. If you're booking for a large festival, we can also run shorter 'taster' sessions throughout the day.

How do I pay, and is there a deposit?

We believe in the quality of our experience, so we don't require upfront payments for most bookings. You can pay after the workshop is complete, giving you total peace of mind. We accept various payment methods and will provide you with all the details during the booking process. If you need to change your plans, just let us know in advance—we’re flexible!

Local culture

Heraklion isn't just about ancient ruins and Minoan history; it's a living, breathing canvas of modern Greek culture. In recent years, the city has seen a massive surge in street art, with local artists blending traditional Cretan motifs with contemporary urban styles. You'll find incredible murals hidden in the side streets near the lions at Morosini Fountain or brightening up the industrial areas near the port. Our pop-up events tap into this local 'kefi' (spirit of joy), offering a bridge between the city's storied past and its creative future. 🏛️🔥

Fun Fact: Did you know that Heraklion has hosted street art festivals that bring together international muralists to transform the city's grey walls into vibrant galleries? Our workshops are inspired by this very movement!
