Do I need to be an artist to join the workshop?

Absolutely no prior experience is needed! Our creative retreat in Chania is designed for everyone, from complete beginners to those with a bit of a flair for art. Our professional artists guide you through every single step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering complex shading techniques. We focus on the joy of creation rather than technical perfection, ensuring everyone leaves with a piece they are proud of.

What should I wear and is it safe?

We prioritse your safety and comfort. We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and specialised masks to ensure you don't get paint on your clothes or inhale fumes. While we provide gear, we still recommend wearing comfortable 'old' shoes and clothes you don't mind getting a tiny bit dusty. Our professional instructors will also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can.

How long does the graffiti session last?

A standard retreat workshop in Chania usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for the initial technique practice, a coffee break to soak in the Cretan atmosphere, and the final execution of your masterpiece. If you are part of a larger corporate retreat or a multi-day event, we can customise the duration to fit your specific itinerary and goals perfectly.

What happens if it rains on the day?

Chania's weather is usually gorgeous, but if the heavens open, we have you covered. We work with several indoor creative spaces and sheltered locations across the city to ensure the workshop goes ahead rain or shine. If you've booked an outdoor session and the weather is too poor, we can usually pivot to an indoor venue or reschedule based on our flexible backup artist availability.

Is there a minimum or maximum group size?

For our retreat workshops, we generally require a minimum of 5-10 people to create a great collaborative vibe. However, we are very flexible! We can accommodate massive groups of 100+ by bringing in our team of backup artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention. Whether it's an intimate team-building group or a massive creative festival, we have the resources to scale the experience to your needs.

What is included in the price?

Our pricing is all-inclusive! The price per person (ranging from €20 to €45) covers all professional spray paints, caps, protective gear, canvases or wall space, and the expert guidance of our street artists. There are no hidden fees. We even handle the clean-up! For specific requests like custom-branded stencils or premium souvenir canvases, just let us know and we’ll include it in your custom quote.

Local culture

Chania is a city where history meets the modern edge. While the Old Town is famous for its narrow alleys and Venetian architecture, the outskirts and industrial areas of the city have become a canvas for local Cretan street artists. Our graffiti retreat workshop in Chania taps into this hidden energy, moving beyond the postcard-perfect views to explore the city's urban pulse. We often host sessions in airy, sun-drenched spaces that allow the Cretan breeze to keep things cool while you work.

🎨 Fun Fact: Chania has a growing street art scene influenced by both traditional Greek mythology and modern social commentary. You'll find hidden murals in the Splantzia district that tell stories as old as the city itself!

Pricing

We believe creative expression should be accessible to everyone. Our pricing is transparent and includes all the gear you need to get spraying.

Price Range: €20 - €45 per person

*Please note: final pricing depends on your group size, the venue, and the specific materials requested (e.g., individual canvases vs. a shared mural).

We don't require any upfront payment – you pay after the workshop is complete and you're 100% satisfied with the experience! 🎉
