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

Absolutely! Most of our pop-up participants have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are there to guide you through every step, from basic nozzle control to advanced layering techniques. We provide a safe, supportive environment where 'mistakes' are just part of the creative process. You'll be amazed at the masterpiece you can create in just one session with a bit of expert help.

What gear do I need to bring along to the event?

We've got you covered! We provide high-quality spray paint, a wide variety of nozzle types (caps), protective gloves, and masks. Depending on the specific pop-up setup, we also provide the boards or canvases you'll be painting on. Just make sure you wear comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of 'character' (paint) on, just in case!

Is the spray paint safe to use for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We use high-quality spray paint and provide all necessary protective gear, including gloves and high-filtration masks. Our artists give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone pops a cap. We also ensure our pop-up locations have excellent ventilation or are outdoors. If you have specific respiratory concerns, please let us know so we can accommodate you.

What is the minimum age for participants?

Generally, our workshops are great for anyone aged 6 and up. For our pop-up events in Newcastle, we find that kids, teens, and adults all have a blast. Children under 12 usually need a guardian present to join in the fun. It’s a fantastic way for families to bond over something a bit edgy and creative that isn't just staring at a screen.

How long does a typical pop-up graffiti session last?

Our standard pop-up workshops usually run for about 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and then the main event where you create your full-scale piece. We don't like to rush the creative vibes, so we make sure there's plenty of time for photos and final touches before we wrap up the session.

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

Newcastle weather can be a bit cheeky! If we're hosting an outdoor pop-up and it looks like rain, we usually have a backup plan. This might involve moving to a covered area or, in some cases, rescheduling to a sunny day. We always keep our participants in the loop via SMS or email if the weather looks like it might dampen our creative spirits.

Can we request a specific theme or style for our pop-up?

We love customising our vibe! If you want to book a private pop-up for a brand launch, office party, or a massive birthday bash in Newcastle, we can certainly tailor the theme. Whether it's specific colours to match your brand or a particular style of lettering, just mention it when you request your quote and we'll make it happen.

Local culture

Newcastle has moved well beyond its industrial roots to become a buzzing hub for street art. From the incredible murals lining the streets of Wickham and Hamilton to the massive artworks featured in the Big Picture Fest, Newy is a city that wears its heart on its walls. Our pop-up workshops tap into this local spirit, giving you the chance to contribute to the city's vibrant creative identity.
