Do I need to be an artist to join the Plovdiv retreat?

Absolutely no prior art experience is needed! Our professional graffiti artists are experts at guiding beginners. We start with the basics of nozzle control and simple lines before moving on to more complex techniques. The retreat is designed to be a stress-free environment where you can explore your creativity at your own pace. Most of our participants haven't picked up a spray can since childhood, if ever!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

We take safety very seriously. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep you and your clothes safe. Our spray paints are selected for their quality and we always work in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. A safety briefing is conducted at the start of every session to ensure everyone feels comfortable and confident using the equipment properly throughout the workshop.

How long does a typical retreat session last?

For our retreat workshops in Plovdiv, sessions typically last between 2 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for a thorough introduction, technique practice, and the completion of a final masterpiece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for staying engaged and inspired without feeling rushed. If you are looking for a longer multi-day experience, we can certainly customise an itinerary for your group.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of dust or paint on. While we provide full protective gear including overalls, a stray drop of paint can occasionally find its way onto your trainers! It’s best to dress for the weather since we often work outdoors to soak up the Plovdiv atmosphere. Think casual and practical for a day of creative movement.

What happens if it rains on the day of our workshop?

Plovdiv is beautiful year-round, but we do have backup plans! If the weather turns against us, we have access to covered outdoor spaces or indoor ventilated studios that allow the creative flow to continue uninterrupted. We also have a dedicated team of backup artists available, so you never have to worry about a cancellation due to staff illness. Your creative retreat is safe with us!

Do I need to pay in advance?

We believe in the quality of our experience, which is why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront payments. Once the session is complete and you’ve seen the incredible results of your team's creativity, the payment is settled. We also offer a 100% satisfaction focus—if you’re not having fun, we’re not doing our jobs right!

Can we choose what we want to paint?

Yes, we love making things personal! While we teach the fundamentals, the final pieces are often based on your group's chosen theme or personal style. Whether you want to create a collaborative mural that represents your company values or individual canvases that capture your personal 'tag', our artists will help you sketch and execute your specific vision. It’s your retreat, and we want it to reflect you.

Sketching the vision: Use our Tag Creator tool or paper sketches to map out your graffiti masterpiece before hitting the wall.
Technique practice: Spend time practicing 'fading', 'outlining', and 'shading' on a practice surface to build your confidence.
The main event: It’s time to hit the big wall or your individual canvas! Watch your vision come to life in vibrant colour.

Local culture

Plovdiv isn't just one of the world's oldest cities; it's a living, breathing canvas. From the colourful houses of the Old Town to the trendy, mural-covered streets of the Kapana Art District, creativity is in the DNA here. By joining a retreat workshop in Plovdiv, you are following in the footsteps of thousands of years of artists who have left their mark on these hills. Our workshops often take place near the city's creative hubs, ensuring you're surrounded by the very street art that has made Plovdiv a European Capital of Culture.

Fun Fact: The name 'Kapana' means 'The Trap' – originally because the winding streets were so easy to get lost in, but nowadays because you'll never want to leave the amazing street art and cafes! 🎨

Beyond Plovdiv, we also bring the spray paint magic to other Bulgarian hotspots like Sofia, Varna, Burgas, and Ruse.

Pricing

We believe professional art experiences should be accessible. Our Plovdiv retreat pricing is flexible based on what you need!

Price range: лв40 – лв90 per person

Prices vary depending on the group size, the length of the session, and whether you want to take your work home on individual canvases or create a massive collaborative mural. Because every retreat is unique, we don't do 'one size fits all' pricing.
