What happens if it rains during our Cape Town workshop?

Cape Town's weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered! If we are working outdoors and the 'South-Easter' starts blowing too hard or rain sets in, we usually move the workshop to a sheltered or indoor location. Our spray cans work just fine in most conditions, and our artists are pros at adapting. We’ll always communicate with you beforehand to ensure the creative vibes keep flowing regardless of the weather.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for children?

Safety is our priority. We use high-quality spray paints and provide all necessary protective gear, including masks and gloves. Our professional artists supervise the entire session, teaching proper nozzle control and spraying techniques. We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers just in case a little 'creative splatter' happens. Parents can rest easy knowing the kids are in a controlled, safe, and fun environment while they unleash their inner Banksy!

Do the kids need any previous art experience?

Absolutely! Our school holiday workshops are designed for everyone from age 6 and up. No prior drawing or painting experience is needed. We start with the basics—how to hold the can, making lines, and filling shapes. Our artists guide each participant step-by-step, ensuring every child walks away with a piece of art they are proud of and a massive boost in creative confidence. Boys and girls alike love the hands-on nature of street art.

Are materials included, or do we bring our own spray cans?

Everything is included in the price! We provide the spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective masks, gloves, and the surfaces we’ll be painting on (usually high-quality wooden boards or canvases). We even bring along some sketches and 'caps' (nozzles) for different effects. You just need to show up with some energy and clothes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. We handle all the setup and the messy cleanup afterwards.

How long does a typical holiday workshop last?

A standard school holiday session in Cape Town typically lasts about 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of a masterpiece. It’s the perfect duration to keep kids engaged and excited without them getting overtired. If you have a larger group or a specific event like a holiday camp, we can adjust the timing to suit your schedule.

Can you host the workshop at our specific location?

We are very flexible! While we often work at cool outdoor spots or community hubs in areas like Woodstock or Salt River, we can also come to your location. Whether it’s a school ground, a private garden, or a community centre in the Southern Suburbs or Atlantic Seaboard, as long as there is enough ventilation and space, we can bring the graffiti magic to you. Just let us know your preference when booking.

How do I book and when do I need to pay?

Booking is super easy and transparent. We don’t require any upfront payment to secure your provisional date. You can use our online Cost Calculator to get an instant estimate, then chat with our team to finalise the details. We only ask for payment after the workshop is completed to ensure you are 100% satisfied with the experience. This risk-free approach is part of why Cape Town parents trust us with their holiday entertainment!

Local culture

Cape Town is a global hub for street art, with world-renowned murals decorating the walls of Woodstock and Salt River. Our workshops tap into this rich local culture, giving kids a chance to participate in the same artistic movement that defines the city's urban landscape. We don't just paint; we talk about the history of Cape Town's art scene and how it brings communities together.

Fun fact: Cape Town hosts the International Public Art Festival (IPAF) every year, where local and international artists transform the city's buildings into massive canvases!

Whether we are inspired by the peaks of Table Mountain or the bright houses of Bo-Kaap, our sessions are infused with the unique spirit of the Cape. We love seeing how the local scenery influences the colours and shapes chosen by our young artists. 🔥

Pricing

Our graffiti workshops are affordable and offer great value for a premium creative experience. Prices typically range from:

R400 - R900 per person

*Price depends on the number of participants, the location, and the specific workshop setup.

The best part? No upfront payment is required! You only pay after the workshop is finished and you're stoked with the results.
