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

Absolutely! Our Kilkenny creative retreats are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists guide you through everything from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created, even if you’ve never picked up a paintbrush before. It’s all about letting go of perfection and having a bit of craic!

What materials are included in the retreat package?

We provide everything you need for a stress-free experience. This includes premium spray paint in a huge range of colours, high-quality canvases or boards, masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. We also provide professional guidance from local street art pros. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes and bring your creative energy to the Marble City!

How long does a typical graffiti workshop last?

Most of our creative retreat workshops in Kilkenny last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final artwork without feeling rushed. We can also tailor the duration to fit into your wider retreat itinerary if you have other Kilkenny sights to see or activities planned!

Is the spray paint safe to use during the retreat?

Safety is our top priority. We use low-odour, high-quality spray paints and provide all necessary safety gear, including FFP2 masks and gloves. Our instructors are highly experienced and will brief the group on all safety protocols before we start. We ensure the workspace is well-ventilated so you can focus entirely on your artistic expression and team bonding.

Can the workshop take place at our chosen retreat venue?

We are very flexible! While we have fantastic outdoor and indoor locations in Kilkenny, we can also come to you. If your retreat venue or hotel has a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated indoor area, we can set up our mobile graffiti wall right there. This makes it incredibly easy to integrate a creative session into your weekend schedule.

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

Rain is part of the charm in Ireland, but it won't stop the fun! If we are scheduled for an outdoor session and the weather turns, we usually have indoor alternatives ready or can set up under professional-grade gazebos. We always have backup plans in place to ensure your Kilkenny retreat remains a highlight of your trip, regardless of the Irish clouds.

Can we take our graffiti artwork home with us?

Depending on the package you choose, you can! Many of our retreat groups love creating individual canvases that they can take home as a souvenir of their Kilkenny adventure. Alternatively, for team-building retreats, groups often choose to work on a large collaborative mural that stays with the host venue or serves as a magnificent digital photo memory for everyone involved.
