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

Absolutely not! Our Genoa retreats are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic lines and shapes before moving on to complex shading and fill-ins. You’ll be amazed at how quickly you can create something spectacular under our expert guidance. It’s all about the experience and having a blast!

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls, masks, and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a bit unpredictable! Think 'functional and relaxed'—you’ll be moving around a lot as you work on your masterpiece. Dress for the Mediterranean weather if we are working at an outdoor location!

What materials are included in the workshop package?

We provide everything you need to become a street art pro! This includes premium spray paint cans in a huge variety of colours, various nozzle sizes (caps) for different effects, protective gear (overalls, gloves, and masks), and the canvases or wall space itself. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and perhaps a camera to capture your progress!

Is the spray paint safe to use during the session?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality, low-odour spray paints whenever possible and provide all necessary European-standard protective equipment. Our instructors give a comprehensive safety briefing before any cans are shaken. We ensure the workspace is well-ventilated or outdoors, making it a safe and enjoyable environment for all participants to get creative without worries.

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

Genoa can be sunny, but we always have a plan! If the weather turns, we have access to covered outdoor areas or indoor studio spaces where the retreat can continue uninterrupted. We also have a network of backup artists to ensure your event never gets cancelled. Your creative flow won't be stopped by a few raindrops!

How long does the creative session typically last?

A typical retreat workshop in Genoa lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, some practice drills to get the hang of the cans, and finally, the creation of your main artwork. If you have a larger group or want a more intensive masterclass, we can easily extend the duration to suit your schedule.

How do I book and do I need to pay upfront?

Booking is easy and stress-free with Graffitifun. You can request a quote online via our website. Once we’ve sorted the details for your Genoa retreat, your booking is confirmed. The best part? There is no upfront payment required. You can pay after the workshop is completed, ensuring you are 100% happy with your street art experience!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti retreat in the heart of Liguria? It’s time to trade the office walls for a spray can and some fresh sea air! Our workshops aren't just about paint—they're about transformation. 💥

Setting the scene: We start with a brief intro into the history of street art and a safety briefing to get everyone comfortable.
The tag creator: Use our digital tools or paper sketches to brainstorm your personal 'tag' or collective retreat theme.
Can control 101: Learn the basics of how to hold the can, swap nozzles (caps), and control pressure for thin lines or fat fills.
Sketching the wall: Scale up your ideas as we show you how to 'ghost' your design onto the canvas or wall using light colours.
Filling in: The fun part! We’ll teach you how to layer colours and create smooth gradients to make your art pop.
The outline: Master the art of the 'cut'—using a contrasting colour to sharpen your edges and make the design stand out.
Shadows and highlights: Add depth to your work with professional shading techniques that create a 3D effect.
Detailed finishing: Use our specialist caps to add those final flares, drips, and sparkles that define true street art.
The big reveal: Step back, celebrate your work, and take group photos with your finished Genoa masterpiece!

Local culture

Genoa, or Genova, is a city of stunning contrasts—from the grandiose palaces of the Palazzi dei Rolli to the gritty, winding alleyways of the Caruggi. It’s in these narrow streets and the revitalised Porto Antico area where the city’s underground soul truly lives. Genoa has a growing street art scene, with local artists blending historical maritime themes with modern urban styles. Our workshops tap into this local energy, drawing inspiration from the salty sea air and the pastel-coloured facades of the Italian Riviera. 🇮🇹

Fun fact: Genoa is the birthplace of Christopher Columbus, but it’s also the place where denim (Jeans) originated! Just like a pair of sturdy jeans, our graffiti art is designed to be bold, durable, and full of character. ✨

Pricing

Our creative retreats are tailored to your group's specific needs, ensuring a unique experience for every participant. Whether you want a quick blast of creativity or a deep-dive weekend masterclass, we have options to suit your budget.

Price range: €25 - €55 per person

Note: Final pricing depends on group size, location, and the specific materials required.
