Do I need to have artistic skills to participate?

Absolutely! Our Sendai pop-up workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Most of our participants have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists guide you through every step, from basic nozzle control to advanced layering techniques. We provide a safe, supportive environment where the goal is to have fun and express yourself, regardless of your previous artistic experience. You'll be amazed at what you can create!

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep you and your clothes clean. We use specialized low-pressure spray paint which is easier to control and produces less fumes. Our mentors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can. We ensure the pop-up location is well-ventilated and that everyone maintains a respectful distance while painting to ensure a comfortable experience for all.

What should I wear and bring?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide full protective gear including suits and gloves, it's best to be prepared. If you have long hair, bringing a tie is a good idea. Other than that, just bring your energy and creativity! We supply all the professional spray cans, caps, boards, and safety equipment needed for the session.

How long does the workshop session last?

Our standard pop-up event workshops in Sendai typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This duration is perfectly balanced to give you enough time to learn the history of street art, practice different spraying techniques, and complete your own masterpiece without feeling rushed. We can also customize the timing for specific events or festivals if you need a shorter 'taster' session or a longer, more intensive masterclass.

Is there an age limit for the Sendai pop-up?

The minimum age for our public pop-up events is usually 6 years old, as they need to have the hand strength to operate the spray can nozzle. We love working with kids and even offer specialized kids' parties! For minors, we do require a guardian's consent or presence. We use non-toxic materials as much as possible to ensure that the experience is safe and enjoyable for our younger street artists in training.

How does the 'pay after the workshop' policy work?

In the spirit of Japanese hospitality and our own 'fun-first' policy, you don't have to pay anything upfront when you book. You can settle the payment after the workshop is completed. We believe in the quality of our service and want you to feel completely confident in your booking. If plans change, just let us know in advance. We accept various payment methods for your convenience after the event.

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

We are ready for anything! For our Sendai pop-up events, we either use indoor venues with excellent ventilation or outdoor spots with overhead cover. If the weather looks truly unmanageable, we have a pool of backup artists and flexible scheduling to ensure your event still happens or is rescheduled to a better time. We will always communicate with you early if weather might impact our planned street art session.

Local culture

Sendai is famous for its lush greenery and the majestic statue of Date Masamune overlooking the city, but there is a hidden layer of urban creativity pulsing through its streets. From the hip vibes around Oroshimachi to the artistic pockets of Ichibancho, the city's appreciation for visual culture is growing every day. Our Sendai pop-up events celebrate this fusion of traditional Tohoku spirit and modern urban expression.

Fun Fact: Sendai's Jozenji-dori is often called an "open-air museum" because of its beautiful sculptures. Our workshops take that spirit one step further by letting you become the featured artist! 🎨

Pricing

Our workshop prices are designed to be accessible for everyone, ranging from ¥5,000 to ¥12,000 per person. The final price depends on your group size, the length of the session, and the specific setup of the pop-up location.
