Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our Nyeri retreat workshops are designed for everyone, from people who can't draw a straight line to seasoned hobbyists. Our professional artists break down the process into simple, manageable steps. You’ll start with basic can control and move on to create a piece you’ll be genuinely proud of. The focus is on relaxation, expression, and having a blast in the Kenyan highlands.

Are the spray cans and paints safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep you and your clothes clean. All our paint is professional-grade and we conduct our sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces. Our artists are trained to guide you through the process safely while ensuring everyone has a fantastic time without any worries.

What should I wear to the graffiti retreat?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little 'artistic'—just in case! While we provide full protective gear, it's always best to be prepared. Since Nyeri can be a bit chilly in the mornings and evenings, bringing a light jacket or jumper is a smart move. Other than that, just bring your enthusiasm and creative spirit!

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We are extremely flexible! Whether you are a small group of 5 friends looking for a unique weekend getaway or a large corporate team of 50 seeking a creative retreat, we can accommodate you. For larger groups, we bring in extra artists to ensure everyone gets personal guidance and hands-on help throughout the workshop. We scale our setup to fit your specific needs perfectly.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard creative retreat workshop in Nyeri typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final masterpiece. However, we can also offer extended full-day sessions or multi-day retreat programmes if you want to dive deeper into the world of street art and urban culture.

What happens if I need to cancel or if it rains?

We understand that plans can change. One of the best things about Graffitifun is that we don't require upfront payments for most bookings. You can pay after the workshop is completed! Plus, we have a pool of backup artists available, so even if an emergency crops up on our end, your creative retreat in Nyeri will still go ahead as planned.

Are materials included in the price?

Everything is included! We provide all the spray paint (in dozens of vibrant colours), caps, safety gear, canvases or boards to paint on, and expert tuition from a professional artist. We also handle the setup and the cleanup, so you can focus entirely on your creative flow. If you have specific requests for custom stencils or large-scale walls, just let us know!

Local culture

Nyeri isn't just a gateway to the mountains; it's a town with a deep soul and a growing appreciation for contemporary art. While the region is famous for its history and coffee, a new wave of creativity is taking hold. By bringing a graffiti retreat workshop to Nyeri, we are blending the traditional 'Upcountry' peace with the modern 'Nairobi' edge. It’s the perfect contrast – using bright, modern aerosols against the backdrop of Mount Kenya’s majesty. 🏔️

Fun fact: Nyeri was once the home of the famous Scout movement founder, Lord Baden-Powell! Just as the scouts value creativity and teamwork, our workshops bring those same vibes to the canvas—only with a lot more spray paint! ✌️
