Do I need to have any artistic skills to participate?

No prior experience is necessary at all! Our Leipzig retreat workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering complex shading. Most of our guests have never touched spray paint before and are amazed by the vibrant, high-quality artwork they create by the end of the session. It is all about the process and having fun!

What materials are included in the retreat workshop?

We provide everything you need for a creative day out. This includes high-quality spray cans in a huge variety of colours, protective gear (gloves, masks, and overalls), and the canvases or wall space for your art. We also bring professional inspiration materials to help spark your creativity. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and wear clothes you don't mind getting a little dusty!

Where in Leipzig do the workshops take place?

Leipzig is known for its creative 'Freiraum', so we often use legal graffiti walls in artistic districts like Plagwitz or alternative cultural centres. If you prefer an indoor setting or have a specific venue in mind for your retreat, we can often bring the workshop to you using mobile canvases. We always ensure the location is safe, legal, and inspiring.

Is the spray paint safe to use during the workshop?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 respiratory masks and nitrile gloves to all participants. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large indoor spaces with proper airflow. Our instructors are also trained to manage group safety and ensure that the spray equipment is used responsibly, making it a safe experience for everyone involved.

How long does a typical retreat session last?

Our standard retreat workshops typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for an introduction, a practice session on techniques, and the creation of your final masterpiece. However, we can also offer extended full-day immersive experiences if you want to dive deeper into street art culture or combine the workshop with a city tour.

Can you accommodate large groups for a corporate retreat?

We pride ourselves on being flexible! While our standard retreat pricing covers groups of various sizes, we can accommodate anything from small private groups to large corporate retreat gatherings. Our cost calculator on the website can give you an instant estimate, or you can contact us for a bespoke quote tailored to your specific group requirements and location.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti retreat in Leipzig? Because sometimes you need to trade the keyboard for a spray can to truly recharge. Here is why our workshops are the highlight of any trip to the city:

Total stress relief: There is something incredibly therapeutic about the 'shhh' of a spray can and the bold movement of painting large-scale art. 🧘
Authentic location: Experience Leipzig's grit and glamour in the heart of its most creative districts.
Expert guidance: Our artists aren't just teachers; they are active members of the street art community who live and breathe this culture.
Zero pressure: This isn't an art school. We focus on "fun first," ensuring everyone leaves with a smile and a sense of achievement. 🏆
Perfect for any group: From solo travellers looking for a retreat to company events, we tailor the vibe to you.
Memories that stick: You’ll create something physical to take home (on canvas) or leave a digital legacy through our professional photos.

Step by step

The warm welcome: Meet your professional street artist guide at our Leipzig creative hub and get settled in with the group.
Safety first: Get geared up with professional masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean and your lungs protected. ✨
The spray basics: Learn the fundamental techniques of 'can control'—from making thin lines and dots to filling large areas smoothly.
Concept & sketching: Work with our artists to brainstorm a theme for your retreat project or sketch out your individual piece.
First strokes: Head to the wall or canvas to apply your background layers and start the 'rough-in' of your design. 🎨
Adding flare: Learn 'cutting' and 'outlining' techniques to give your graffiti that professional, sharp look.
The finishing touch: Add highlights, shadows, and your personal 'tag' to complete your urban masterpiece.
Photo session: We’ll take high-quality photos of you and your work so you can show off your skills to the world! 📸
Chill & reflect: Wrap up the session with a group discussion about the creative process and enjoy the satisfaction of your hard work.

Local culture

Leipzig is a city that breathes art, from the world-renowned galleries of the Spinnerei to the raw, colourful murals lining the streets of Connewitz. It’s a place where history meets contemporary rebellion, making it the ideal location for a graffiti retreat. The local scene is deeply rooted in 'DIY' culture, and you'll feel that authentic spirit as you pick up a spray can. 🏙️

Fun Fact: Did you know Leipzig is often called "Hypezig"? It’s because so many artists moved here for the affordable studio spaces in old industrial buildings, creating one of the most concentrated urban art scenes in Europe!

In our workshops, we embrace this local vibe, often finding inspiration in the city's unique architecture and history. Whether we are working in an old factory yard or a designated street art zone, the energy of Leipzig will definitely fuel your creativity. 🔥
