Do I need to be an artist to join a showroom session?

Nah, you don't need any prior skills at all! Our Christchurch showroom experiences are designed for everyone, from total beginners to those who’ve dabbled in art before. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, from holding the can correctly to mastering those tricky flares. It’s all about having a go, getting messy (safely!), and enjoying the creative process in a relaxed environment. You’ll be surprised at what you can create!

Is the spray paint safe to use indoors?

Safety is our top priority while we’re having fun. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean and your lungs clear. Our Christchurch showroom is well-ventilated, and our artists provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We use professional-grade paints, but we ensure the environment is controlled and safe for all ages and skill levels participating in the workshop.

What should I wear to the graffiti showroom?

Wear something comfortable that you don't mind getting a little dusty, just in case! While we provide full protective overalls and gloves, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto shoes or sleeves if you aren't careful. We recommend closed-toe shoes for safety. Aside from that, just bring your enthusiasm and maybe some ideas for what you'd like to paint—we’ll handle absolutely everything else for you!

How long does a typical session last?

Standard showroom experiences in Christchurch typically run for about 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, a demo of different techniques, some practice time on the walls, and then the creation of your final masterpiece. If you are looking for a more intensive session or a quick brand activation, we can definitely adjust the timing to suit your schedule. Just let us know what you need when booking!

Can we book a private session for our Christchurch team?

Absolutely! Our showroom is the perfect spot for team building or corporate events. It’s a fantastic way to get the team out of the office and into a creative mindset. We can even tailor the session to include collaborative murals where everyone works together on a single large-scale piece that represents your company's values or brand. Plus, you don’t pay until after the workshop is finished, making it easy for accounts!

Is there an age limit for the workshop?

We generally recommend our showroom experiences for ages 8 and up. This is mainly because the spray cans require a certain amount of hand strength and coordination to operate effectively. For younger kids, we can often arrange special setups or use water-based alternatives, but for the full street art experience, being primary school age or older works best. It’s a massive hit for kids' parties and family outings in the Garden City!

How do I secure a date for my group?

Booking is super easy! You can use our online Cost Calculator to get an instant estimate, or just send us a message with your preferred date and group size. We have backup artists on standby to ensure your event never gets cancelled, and the best part is there’s no upfront payment required. You only pay once the workshop is complete and you’re 100% satisfied with the experience. Let’s get painting!

Sketching your vibe: Grab a marker or some chalk and map out your design on the canvas or showroom wall.
The first layer: Start filling in your shapes and getting used to the flow of the paint.

Local culture

Christchurch is basically the street art capital of New Zealand! Ever since the 2011 reshaped our city, graffiti and massive murals have become the heartbeat of the CBD. From the iconic pieces in High Street to the hidden gems in the SALT District, the city is one giant outdoor gallery. Our graffiti showroom experience Christchurch taps directly into this local "rebuild" spirit—celebrating creativity, resilience, and expression. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know Christchurch hosted 'Rise', the most visited solo artist exhibition in Canterbury Museum’s history, which was all about street art? The city's love for spray paint runs deep!

Whether you're visiting from Auckland or Queenstown, you'll find that our local showroom reflects the unique, laid-back, and artistic soul of Otautahi. We're proud to be part of the local creative fabric that makes this city so vibrant. ✨

Pricing

Our Christchurch showroom experiences are priced to be accessible and fun for everyone. Rates generally range from NZ$45 to NZ$95 per person.

The final price depends on your group size, the duration of the workshop, and whether you're taking home custom canvases or working on a collaborative showroom mural.

No upfront payment required! You only pay after the workshop is done and you're stoked with the result. 🏆
