Do I need any previous art experience to join?

No prior art skills are needed at all! Our Gold Coast retreat workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to those who haven't picked up a pen in years. Our pro artists guide you through every step, from basic nozzle control to advanced layering techniques. You'll be amazed at the masterpiece you can create by the end of the session in a relaxed, supportive environment.

What is included in the workshop package?

We provide everything you need for a legendary day out. This includes high-quality spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gear (masks, gloves, and ponchos to keep your clothes clean), and the 'canvas' itself—whether that's a professional wall space or individual boards. We also bring the music and the good vibes. Just bring your enthusiasm and a 'can-do' attitude!

Is the spray paint safe to use during the retreat?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odour, high-quality spray paints and provide all necessary safety equipment, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks and gloves. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated indoor spaces with proper airflow. Our expert instructors also provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can to ensure a fun, hazard-free experience.

How long does a typical Gold Coast retreat session last?

A typical creative retreat workshop lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us plenty of time for a thorough introduction, some practice runs on cardboard to get your 'can control' down, and then the main event: creating your final artwork. We don't rush the process, ensuring you have enough time to find your flow and really enjoy the creative journey.

Where in the Gold Coast do the workshops take place?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our flexibility. We can host the workshop at one of our pre-approved street art locations around the Gold Coast, or we can come to you! If you have a private backyard, a corporate car park, or a hired retreat space, we can set up our mobile graffiti walls and bring the street art studio to your doorstep.

Is there an age limit for the graffiti workshops?

We generally recommend our workshops for ages 8 and up, making it a fantastic multi-generational activity for retreats. For younger participants, we focus more on 'street art' techniques with pens or stencils if the cans are too heavy. It’s an inclusive activity that bridges the gap between kids, teens, and adults, making sure everyone feels like a rockstar artist.

The experience

Forget the boring old pottery classes or generic painting nights. A graffiti retreat is about raw energy, bold colours, and breaking the rules (in a safe, legal way, of course!). Here’s why you should book with us: 🎉

Authentic Artists: Learn from real-deal street artists who live and breathe the culture, not just art teachers. 🎤
Total Freedom: There are no mistakes in graffiti—only happy accidents and 'extensions' of your style.
All-Inclusive: We bring the paint, the gear, and the expertise; you just bring the vibe.
Stress-Free Booking: Use our Cost Calculator for instant pricing and rest easy with our no-cancel backup artist policy. 💪
Epic Content: You’ll walk away with photos and videos that will make your social feed look absolutely mental.
Location Flexibility: We can host you at a scenic outdoor wall or bring the mobile setup to your accommodation.

Step by step

The warm welcome: Meet your pro graffiti artist at our Gold Coast location and get kitted out in your safety gear.
Street art history: Grab a quick, inspiring rundown on the history of graffiti culture and how it evolved into modern street art.
Mastering the 'Can': Learn the secrets of nozzle pressure, distance, and hand speed to create different lines and effects.
Sketching the vision: Work with our artists to sketch your concept on paper or directly onto the wall surface.
Outline and fill: Start bringing your piece to life! We'll show you how to fill large areas smoothly and create clean edges.
Shadows and highlights: This is where the magic happens—learn to add 3D depth and 'pop' to your tags or characters.
The final flair: Add those signature drips, sparkles, or outlines that make your artwork uniquely yours.
Photo op: Strike a pose in front of your masterpiece for the ultimate social media shots and group memories.
Wrap up: Recieve feedback from the pros and maybe even take home your individual canvas as a permanent souvenir.
