Do I need any prior art experience to join the retreat?

Absolutely! Most of our retreat participants in Dar es Salaam have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert teachers who break down the process into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to more complex fills and outlines. You will be amazed at what you can create by the end of the session!

Is the graffiti workshop safe and what should I wear?

Safety and comfort are our top priorities. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean and your lungs clear. We also use low-pressure cans for better control and professional-grade paint. The workshops are held in well-ventilated or outdoor spaces to ensure a safe environment for everyone to express their inner artist freely.

How long does a typical retreat session last?

Standard retreat workshops usually last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final masterpiece. However, we are flexible! If you are planning a more intensive full-day creative retreat in Dar es Salaam, we can customise the itinerary to include deeper dives into street art history and advanced mural techniques.

What is the maximum group size for a retreat in Dar es Salaam?

We can accommodate groups of almost any size. Whether you are a small team of 10 looking for an intimate bonding experience or a large organisation with 100+ members, we have the artist capacity to manage it. For larger groups, we bring in multiple instructors to ensure everyone gets personal guidance and plenty of time with the spray cans.

Can you host the workshop at our specific retreat location?

We are fully mobile! While we have preferred creative spots around the city, we can also come to your hotel, office, or a rented event space, provided there is adequate ventilation and permission to paint. If you don't have a venue, don't worry—we know the best coastal spots and urban yards in Dar es Salaam to host an inspiring session.

Do we get to keep the artwork we create?

Usually, we work on large communal walls or wooden panels to encourage collaboration. However, if you would like each participant to take something home, we can arrange for individual canvases or even branded items like tote bags or caps. Just let us know your preference when booking so we can prep the right materials for your Dar es Salaam adventure.

How do I book and what are the payment terms?

Booking is simple and stress-free. You can request a quote through our website based on your group size. We don't require upfront payment; you can pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied. We also have backup artists on standby, so your retreat schedule is protected against any unexpected changes. Let's get your date in the diary!

Local culture

Dar es Salaam, or 'The Abode of Peace', is a city that pulses with a unique rhythm. From the intricate woodcarvings at Mwenge to the vivid colours of the local markets, art is in the city's DNA. The local street art scene is growing fast, blending traditional African motifs with modern urban influences. Our retreats capture this local spirit, encouraging you to draw inspiration from the Indian Ocean views and the energetic 'Bongo Flava' culture that surrounds us. 🌊

Fun Fact: Did you know that the Tingatinga painting style originated right here in Dar es Salaam? It’s famous for its bold colours and whimsical depictions of animals—elements we love to see reflected in our graffiti workshops! 🦁

Looking to explore more of Tanzania? We also offer creative experiences in Dodoma, Mwanza, Arusha, and Mbeya.

We believe every retreat is unique, just like your artwork. Because we tailor the experience to your group's size, location, and specific needs, we don't have a one-size-fits-all price list. Whether you want a quick energiser or a deep-dive creative mural project, we will provide a competitive quote that fits your budget.

Prices depend on group size and setup—request a quote today!
