Do I need any prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely not! Our Kolwezi pop-up events are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists walk you through the entire process, starting with basic spray techniques and safety. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It’s all about having fun and expressing yourself, so don’t worry if you’ve never held a spray can before.

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint in well-ventilated outdoor or large indoor spaces. Our instructors are experts in handling these materials and will ensure everyone follows safety protocols while having a blast. We make sure the environment is controlled, creative, and completely safe for all ages.

What should I wear to the event?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide full protective overalls and gear, spray paint can be unpredictable! Flat shoes or trainers are best as you'll be standing and moving around your canvas. Aside from your enthusiasm, we provide everything else, including the cans, caps, and safety equipment.

How long does a typical session last?

A typical pop-up workshop in Kolwezi lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, a demo of various techniques, plenty of practice time, and the final creation of your artwork. If you have specific time constraints for your event, just let us know, and we can tailor the schedule to fit your needs perfectly.

What is the maximum group size for a pop-up event?

We are very flexible! Our pop-up events can cater to small private groups or large-scale corporate activations. Whether you are planning a small gathering of 10 friends or a major event for 100+ people, we have the staff and materials to handle it. For very large groups, we often work in rotations to ensure everyone gets a high-quality, hands-on experience.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

Yes, you can! Depending on the specific setup of the Kolwezi event, you’ll often create your work on individual canvases or boards that you can take home. For larger collaborative murals, we can discuss options for keeping the artwork or even donating it to a local community space. It’s a fantastic souvenir of your creative journey. Discover your style today!

What happens if it rains on the day of the event?

While we love the sunshine in Lualaba Province, we always have a plan B. If the weather doesn't cooperate for an outdoor setup, we can move the event to a covered area or use professional indoor-safe materials if the venue allows. Our local coordinators in Kolwezi are experts at adapting to ensure the 'show goes on' regardless of the weather conditions.

Local culture

Kolwezi is a city of incredible energy and transformation. While it's world-famous for its mining heritage, there is a pulse of modern creativity growing in the heart of the Lualaba Province. Our pop-up events tap into this local spirit, offering a space where the industrial strength of Kolwezi meets the fluid, vibrant world of street art. We love setting up our mobile walls near the bustling city centre or in quiet local spots where the contrast of the red earth and neon spray paint creates a stunning visual. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know that graffiti in the DRC often incorporates local symbols and 'proverb' culture? When you join us in Kolwezi, we'll show you how to blend global street art styles with local Congolese flair! 🇨🇩
