Do I need to have any artistic experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our Kolwezi retreat workshops are designed for everyone, from complete beginners to seasoned doodlers. Our professional artists guide you through every step, from holding the spray can to mastering complex shading. We focus on the joy of creation rather than technical perfection, ensuring you leave with a piece of art you're proud of and a massive smile on your face.🎨

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little 'artistic' on. While we provide high-quality protective suits and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a bit messy. Think of it as a badge of honour! If you're joining us for a retreat in the Lualaba sun, breathable fabrics are your best friend. Look good, feel good, and paint even better!✨

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with professional-grade FFP2 masks, gloves, and protective overalls. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or large indoor areas with proper airflow. Our artists are trained in safety protocols to ensure everyone has a blast without any risks. You're in safe, creative hands with the Graffitifun team!🛡️

How long does a typical retreat session last?

Our standard creative retreat workshops in Kolwezi typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the final creation of your masterpiece. If you're looking for a more intensive full-day experience or a multi-day retreat, we can certainly arrange that too. We're all about flexibility to suit your schedule!⏳

What is the maximum group size?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you’re a small group of 5 friends or a massive corporate team of 100+, we have the gear and the artists to accommodate you. For larger groups, we bring in additional backup artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention and guidance. No group is too big or too small for a splash of colour in Kolwezi!👥

Do I need to pay in advance?

One of the best parts of our service is that you don't pay a penny upfront. We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you only pay after the event is successfully completed. This gives you total peace of mind and ensures we are 100% committed to giving you the best creative day ever. Booking your Kolwezi retreat is completely risk-free!💰

What happens if it rains on the day?

We love a bit of rain—it adds character! However, for your comfort, we usually have backup indoor locations or stretching marquees ready. If the weather in Kolwezi really isn't playing ball, we can easily reschedule or move to a covered area. Your creative flow won't be stopped by a few raindrops! weather-proof fun is our specialty.🌧️

The vibrant markets and the red earth of the Lualaba region provide a stunning natural palette that inspires every stroke of the spray can. Our workshops embrace this local grit and turn it into something beautiful. We love bringing the urban art movement to this corner of the DR Congo, connecting global street culture with local Congolese flair. locally, we often draw inspiration from the geometric patterns found in traditional crafts, blending them with modern graffiti styles.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Kolwezi is one of the fastest-growing urban centres in the region? This rapid evolution makes it the perfect backdrop for street art, which is all about change, movement, and making your voice heard in an ever-shifting landscape! 🌍
