Do I need any prior art experience to join the retreat?

Absolutely! Most people who join our Stavanger retreats haven't held a spray can since they were kids—or ever! Our professional artists guide you through the basics, from 'can control' to layering colours. This retreat is all about the process of creation and finding your flow, not about being a gallery-ready artist on day one. We celebrate every 'mistake' as a stylish addition to your work.

What equipment is included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need to get creative. This includes professional-grade spray paints in a huge range of colours, high-quality caps, protective overalls, gloves, and high-end respirators for your safety. We also provide the canvases or practice walls and all the snacks and drinks needed to keep your energy high. Just bring your enthusiasm and your most comfortable 'old' pair of shoes.

What are the benefits of a creative retreat for wellbeing?

Graffiti is a surprisingly physical and mindful activity. Taking a retreat in Stavanger allows you to step away from digital screens and focus entirely on the tactile sensation of painting. It’s a powerful way to reduce stress, boost dopamine, and foster authentic connections with your group. Plus, the fresh air of the Norwegian coast combined with the vibrant street art culture here makes for a truly inspiring atmosphere.

What happens if it rains during our Stavanger retreat?

Whatever the Norwegian weather throws at us, we’ve got you covered. In Stavanger, we have access to both stunning outdoor 'legal walls' for sunny days and spacious, well-ventilated indoor studios for those classic coastal rainy afternoons. We monitor the forecast closely and will confirm the exact location 24-48 hours before your session starts to ensure you have the most comfortable experience possible.

How long does a typical creative retreat session last?

A standard retreat workshop usually lasts between 2 and 4 hours, but we can easily extend this if you’re looking for a full-day immersive experience. Full-day retreats allow more time for collaborative murals, deeper artistic coaching, and extended breaks for coffee and local treats. We are very flexible and can tailor the schedule to fit your group's specific energy levels and goals.

Is the spray painting process safe for everyone?

Safety is our priority. We use low-odour, high-quality paints wherever possible and provide professional FFP3 respirators to all participants. Our artists are trained in site safety and will give a full briefing before any cans are shaken. Because we host many of our retreats in open-air environments or specially ventilated studios, you can focus entirely on your art without any worries about fumes or health risks.

How does the 'pay after' policy work?

We believe in the quality of our Stavanger retreats, which is why we don't require any payment until the workshop is over. You can book your date and time with confidence, knowing you only pay once you've seen the smiles and the finished artwork. This helps take the stress out of planning and ensures that your only focus is having an incredible time with your group.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti retreat in Stavanger over a standard workshop? It’s about more than just painting a wall—it’s about the experience of creation in one of the most beautiful cities in Norway. Here is why our retreats are a must-try:

Mental Reset: Graffiti requires focus and rhythm, making it a fantastic way to practice mindfulness and beat burnout. 🔥
World-Class Backdrop: Paint in the city that hosts legendary street art festivals, surrounded by world-class inspiration.
Expert Guidance: Our artists aren't just teachers; they are active members of the street art community who live and breathe this culture. 🎤
All-Inclusive: We handle the mess and the materials; you just bring your creative energy.
Social Connection: Nothing bonds a group like creating a massive, vibrant piece of art together in the fresh Stavanger air. 🏆
No Stress Booking: With our 'pay after' policy and backup artists, your peace of mind is guaranteed.

Step by step

The warm welcome: We gather at our Stavanger site, hand out gear, and get to know the group over a quick briefing.
Artist inspiration: Our pro artists show you some basic techniques and share the stories behind the city's famous street art.
Sketching the flow: Grab a marker and a piece of paper to map out your initial ideas and colour palettes.
Can control basics: Learn how to hold the spray can, swap nozzles (caps), and create your first clean lines.
The first layer: Time to hit the wall or canvas! We start with the background 'fill' to get the colour moving.
Defining the piece: Begin adding outlines and shapes to give your graffiti its unique character and structure.
Mindful details: Add highlights, shadows, and those tiny details that make the artwork pop while finding your creative 'flow'.
Collaborative finish: Step back, look at the group's work, and add any final collaborative touches to the mural.
Grand reveal: We finish with a photo session of you and your masterpiece—the perfect memory of your Stavanger retreat.

Local culture

Stavanger isn't just a gateway to the fjords; it's a global hub for urban creativity. Since the inception of the world-famous Nuart Festival, the city has transformed into an open-air gallery where local legends and international icons decorate the walls. From the colourful streets of Øvre Holmegate to the industrial charm of the harbour, inspiration is literally around every corner. 🌊

Our retreat workshops tap into this vibrant energy, often taking place near these iconic spots to help you feel like a true part of the scene. The salty sea air and the laid-back Norwegian 'kos' (cosiness) make Stavanger the ultimate location for a creative reset.

Fun Fact: Did you know Stavanger is home to one of the world's first officially designated "street art buses"? Public transport here is just as colourful as the buildings! 🚌 🎨

Pricing

Our Stavanger retreat workshops are priced competitively to ensure everyone can access the joy of street art. Costs are based on your group size, the length of the session, and any specific customisations you'd like to include.

Price range: kr300 - kr650 per person
No Deposit: We believe in our service, so you only pay after the workshop!

Whether you're looking for a quick creative boost or a deep-dive artistic immersion, we can build a package that fits your budget perfectly.
