Do I need to have drawing or painting experience to join?

Not at all! Our Chania workshops are designed for absolute beginners and enthusiasts alike. Whether you've never touched a spray can before or you're a budding creative, our professional artists will guide you through every step. We focus on fun and expression rather than technical perfection, ensuring everyone leaves with a piece of art they are proud of. It's the perfect way to spend a school holiday afternoon!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, and use professional-grade spray paints. All sessions are led by experienced artists who oversee the entire process, ensuring a controlled and safe environment. We choose outdoor or well-ventilated locations in Chania to ensure everyone can breathe easily while they create their colourful masterpieces.

What should we wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a bit of 'artistic character' on! While we provide protective overalls, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto shoes or sleeves. Think old trainers and casual wear. Since Chania can be quite sunny, bringing a hat and some sunscreen is also a great idea for our outdoor painting sessions!

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Our standard school holiday workshops in Chania usually run for about 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, practice sessions, and the final creation of your main piece. If you have a larger group or specific requirements, we can adjust the timing to fit your holiday schedule. It’s the perfect length to stay engaged without getting tired!

What materials are included in the price?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day! This Includes professional spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overalls. We also provide the 'canvas'—whether that's a wall or a portable board. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and maybe some water to stay hydrated under the Cretan sun. We handle the messy logistics!

What happens if the weather is bad on the day?

We offer great flexibility for our Chania workshops. If it’s a light drizzle, we can often find a sheltered spot or work under cover. However, if the weather looks truly 'Cretan stormy', we will work with you to reschedule for a better day or find an indoor alternative. Because we have local backup artists, we are very reliable when it comes to keeping our bookings!

Can we take our creations home with us?

Absolutely! At the end of our Chania sessions, you'll have the chance to take photos of your work, and if we've worked on individual boards or canvases, you get to take those home. It’s a fantastic souvenir of your holiday in Crete. If we paint on a communal wall, you'll leave with some incredible photos to show off on social media and memories that last forever.

Local culture

Chania is a city where ancient history meets modern creativity. While the Old Town is famous for its Venetian and Ottoman architecture, the modern parts of Chania hide a vibrant street art scene. From the colourful alleys near the Koum Kapi beach to the industrial vibes of the outskirts, urban art is becoming a key part of the city's visual identity.

Fun fact: Notice the contrast in Chania? Unlike many cities where graffiti is purely industrial, here you'll often see 'muralism'—large-scale artworks that blend traditional Cretan motifs with modern spray-painting techniques. It’s this unique mix of the old and the new that makes Chania such an inspiring place for a workshop! 🇬🇷🔥

Pricing

Our graffiti experiences are competitively priced and vary based on how big your crew is and what you want to create!

Price range: €20 - €45 per person

No upfront payment is required – you pay after the workshop! We want to make sure you're 100% happy with the experience first. 💪
