Do I need to be good at drawing to join the retreat?

No artistic experience is required at all! Our Montpellier retreat workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics, from how to hold a spray can to mastering complex layering techniques. We focus on the joy of creation and the therapeutic nature of street art, ensuring everyone leaves with a piece of art they're proud of.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need for a creative day out. This includes high-quality spray paint in a huge variety of colours, protective overalls, gloves, and specialised masks. Depending on the specific retreat package, we also provide the canvases or boards you'll be working on. Just wear comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty!

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality, low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control, and we provide all necessary PPE, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks and nitrile gloves. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or dedicated halls. Our artists are trained in safety protocols to ensure a worry-free environment for all participants.

How long does the workshop last?

A standard creative retreat workshop in Montpellier typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for an introduction to the history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the completion of your final masterpiece. We can also customise the duration for full-day team retreats or intensive creative sessions.

What happens if it rains on the day?

Absolutely! While we have amazing outdoor spots near the city centre, we also have access to indoor locations and covered areas. In the event of heavy rain, we can easily move the session undercover or reschedule to ensure you have the best possible experience without getting soaked. Your creative flow won't be interrupted by a bit of French weather!

What is your cancellation and booking policy?

We are incredibly flexible with bookings. Unlike many other providers, we don't require upfront payment; you can pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied. If you need to change your date or group size, just let us know as soon as possible, and we will accommodate you using our backup artist network.

The experience

Why choose Montpellier for your creative escape? This city breathes art, and our workshops are designed to help you catch that rhythm. It’s the perfect way to bond, relax, and learn a new skill in the sunshine. ☀️

Unlock hidden talents: You’ll be amazed at what you can create with a little professional guidance. ✨
Stress-busting fun: Spray painting is incredibly cathartic—there’s nothing like the 'hiss' of the can to clear your mind.
Authentic atmosphere: Work with real street artists who live and breathe the Montpellier art scene. 🎤
No-risk booking: With no upfront payments and our 100% satisfaction guarantee, you can book with total confidence.
Something for everyone: Whether you're here for company events or a bachelor party, we scale the fun to fit your group. 🏆

Step by step

Warm welcome: Your group meets our street art mentors at a vibrant Montpellier location, where we’ll kick things off with a brief history of the local graffiti scene.
Tool kit intro: We’ll walk you through the gear—learning about different nozzles (caps) and how they change the thickness of your lines.
The 'Ghost' technique: Practice your first movements without paint to get the flow of your arm and body right before pressing the cap.
Canvas prep: Start by applying a base layer to your canvas, choosing from a rainbow of professional-grade spray colours.
Sketching & outlines: Use chalk or light spray to map out your design, focusing on the composition and flow of your piece.
Filling & fading: Learn the 'fade' technique to create beautiful gradients and 3D effects within your letters or characters.
The highlight: Add those final 'power lines' and highlights that make the artwork pop off the surface.
Group gallery walkthrough: We finish by lining up all the canvases for a group photo and a 'show and tell' of everyone's unique creations.

Local culture

Montpellier is a Mediterranean gem where old-world charm meets cutting-edge urban art. From the historic streets of l’Écusson to the modern architecture of Antigone, the city is a living museum. The local street art scene is legendary, with world-renowned artists like Mist and Al Sticking calling this region home. You’ll find incredible murals tucked away in small alleys and massive displays along the tram lines.

Fun Fact: Montpellier is famous for its painted 'trompe-l'œil' windows! Look closely at the facades of old buildings—many of the windows are actually realistic paintings designed to trick the eye.

Our workshops take inspiration from this rich heritage, often taking place near the vibrant street art hubs like the Quai du Verdanson, ensuring you're surrounded by the city's creative heartbeat while you work.

Pricing

Investment in your creativity

Prices range from €30 to €65 per person.
