What exactly happens during a graffiti retreat workshop in Dunedin?

Our creative retreat workshops are designed specifically for groups seeking a deeper connection. Whether you're a corporate team, a group of friends, or a community organisation, we tailor the experience to your goals. You'll spend 2 to 3 hours learning professional techniques, collaborating on a large-scale mural, and enjoying a mindful, creative flow. All paint, safety gear, and expert tuition are included to ensure your Dunedin retreat is both relaxing and high-energy.

Do we need any previous artistic experience or talent?

Absolutely not! Most of our participants haven't touched a spray can since they were kids—or ever! Our professional artists break down the process into easy-to-follow steps. We focus on 'controlled creativity,' ensuring everyone feels comfortable and confident. By the end of the session, you’ll be amazed at the professional-looking masterpiece you’ve helped create together. It’s all about the experience and the 'mahi' (work) you put in!

What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor workshop?

New Zealand weather can be a bit 'four seasons in one day,' especially in the south! We have access to several fantastic undercover venues and indoor studios throughout Dunedin. If your heart is set on an outdoor location and the rain sets in, we’ll move the workshop to a sheltered spot so the creative vibes keep flowing without anyone getting soggy. Your retreat goes ahead rain or shine!

Where in Dunedin do the retreat workshops actually take place?

Dunedin is the street art capital of NZ, and we love to embrace that! Your retreat can take place at various inspiring locations, from the edgy industrial vibes of the Warehouse District to private garden settings or even right at your chosen accommodation or conference venue. We are fully mobile and can bring the entire graffiti studio to you, wherever you're based in the city.

Is the spray paint safe, and do we get protective clothing?

Your safety is our priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep those Dunedin breezes out and the paint off your clothes. We only use professional-grade spray paint with low odour where possible, and our artists are trained in site safety. We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and sneakers you don't mind getting a tiny bit of 'art' on—just in case!

How does the payment process work—do we pay upfront?

We believe in total flexibility and trust. You don't need to pay a cent upfront to secure your date. Once the workshop is finished and your team is buzzing from their creative success, we’ll send through the invoice for payment. This keeps things high-trust and low-stress for you, so you can focus on enjoying the retreat and the beautiful Otago scenery.

The experience

Taking your group for a creative retreat in Dunedin is about more than just a change of scenery—it's about a change of perspective. Here’s why a Graffitifun workshop is the highlight of any Otago trip:

🚀 Ultimate Stress Buster: There is nothing more satisfying than the 'hiss' of a spray can to release some steam and find your flow.
🤝 Real Collaboration: Unlike sitting in a circle, you’re literally building a vision together, shoulder-to-shoulder.
🖌️ Expert Guidance: Our pro artists aren't just talented—they're great teachers who know how to bring out the 'inner Banksy' in everyone.
📸 Epic Memories: You’ll end up with incredible photos and a physical mural that can be displayed back at the office or kept as a souvenir.
🙌 Zero Stress Booking: With backup artists and no upfront costs, we make the organiser's life as easy as possible.

Step by step

Protective gear: Everyone gets fitted out with masks, gloves, and those iconic white suits—now you really look the part!
Can control 101: Our pro artists show you the ropes, from basic lines to 'fading' and 'fat cap' techniques.
Design phase: As a group, you’ll sketch out the vision for your mural, incorporating elements that represent your retreat's mission.
The first layer: Time to shake those cans! You’ll start filling in the 'background' and getting a feel for the spray flow.
Collaborative painting: This is where the magic happens—working together to blend colours and sharpen the edges of your masterpiece.
The big reveal: Step back, remove the tape, and admire the professional-grade street art your team just smashed out.
Wrap and refresh: Snap some epic photos of your work before we handle the entire cleanup, leaving you to enjoy the rest of your Dunedin day.

Local culture

Dunedin (or 'Ōtepoti' in Te Reo) isn't just a university town; it’s a living gallery. The city has fully embraced the street art movement, with world-class murals by international and local legends adorning the sides of historic Victorian buildings. Walking through the Dunedin Street Art Trail, you’ll see everything from hyper-realistic portraits to abstract masterpieces that give the city its unique, edgy soul.

Our workshops tap into this local energy. We often draw inspiration from the surrounding landscapes—the rugged coastline, the Albatross colony, and the gothic architecture. There’s something special about spray painting in a city that respects the art form so much. 🏛️🐧

Fun Fact: Dunedin's Street Art Trail features over 30 permanent murals and is considered one of the best in the Southern Hemisphere. It’s the perfect pre-workshop inspiration walk!

Pricing

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all pricing because every retreat in Dunedin is unique! Our rates are tailored to your specific group size, location, and the type of masterpiece you want to create.
