Do you use non-toxic or low-odour spray paint?

Absolutely! We use high-quality, water-based spray cans for our indoor sessions and when working with participants who might be sensitive to strong smells. These paints are much lower in VOCs and odour than traditional street cans, making the experience comfortable and accessible for everyone without compromising on the vibrant colours and fun of the graffiti process. Safety and comfort are our top priorities.

How do you adapt the workshop for different disabilities?

We are incredibly flexible. Our artists are trained to adapt their teaching style on the fly. Whether someone needs more visual demonstrations, physical assistance with the spray nozzle, or a quieter space to work in, we make it happen. We believe street art is a universal language, and we pride ourselves on ensuring every participant feels successful and included regardless of their specific needs.

Can the workshop be held at our own facility in Basel?

Yes, we can! While we have several preferred locations around Basel that are fully accessible, we are also happy to bring the workshop to your facility, school, or community centre. We just need an outdoor space or a well-ventilated indoor area with enough room for the group. We bring all the protective floor coverings and materials needed to keep your venue clean.

What is the recommended group size for these sessions?

The ideal group size is usually between 8 and 15 participants to ensure everyone gets plenty of individual attention from our artists. However, we can cater to smaller groups or much larger events by bringing in additional professional artists and backup staff. We always maintain a high artist-to-participant ratio for special needs programs to ensure a safe and supportive environment.

What safety measures and gear do you provide?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits for all participants. Our artists lead a thorough safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We also ensure that the workspace is arranged to prevent tripping hazards and that all equipment is handled under the direct supervision of our experienced professionals.

Do participants need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. We guide participants through every step, from holding the can to creating simple shapes and letters. The focus of our special needs program is on the joy of creation, sensory exploration, and self-expression rather than technical perfection. Everyone will leave feeling like a true Basel street artist, regardless of their prior experience.

Tailored approach: We adapt our teaching methods to suit the sensory and physical needs of every individual.
Sensory stimulation: The vibrant colours and the physical action of spraying provide a rich, engaging sensory experience.
Confidence building: Seeing a large-scale piece of art come to life provides an immediate sense of accomplishment.
Professional artists: Our team consists of patient, experienced street artists who love sharing their craft with everyone.
Fully inclusive locations: We use accessible spots across Basel or bring the workshop directly to you.
Stress-free booking: With no deposit and backup artists ready, your event is in safe hands.

Step by step

Initial consultation: We chat about your group's specific needs, mobility requirements, and sensory preferences to tailor the workshop perfectly.
Site selection: We choose an accessible location in Basel or arrange to come to your specific venue with all the mobile equipment.
Safety and gear up: Participants are fitted with protective suits, gloves, and masks while receiving a friendly safety briefing.
Introduction to tools: Our artists demonstrate how the spray cans work, focusing on different nozzles (caps) and pressure techniques.
Sketching the vision: We help participants design their ideas on paper or directly on the canvas using light markers.
First strokes: Under close guidance, participants start applying colour to the wall or canvas, learning the flow of the paint.
Adding detail: We assist in refining the artwork, adding outlines or highlights to make the colours pop.
Group photo and cleanup: We celebrate the finished masterpiece with photos and take care of all the waste and recycling.
Keeping the art: Your group gets to keep their canvases or take home digital photos of their collaborative mural.

Good to know

Our special needs workshops in Basel are designed with flexibility in mind. Typically, a session lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the energy levels and needs of the group. We provide all necessary materials: professional low-pressure spray cans, protective clothing, masks, and gloves. We always ensure our locations are wheelchair accessible and have nearby facilities. To maintain a high standard of safety, we always have backup artists on call to ensure the session goes ahead smoothly. We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on, even with our protective gear!

Local culture

Basel is widely regarded as Switzerland's cultural capital, and its street art scene is a testament to this creative spirit. From the legal walls near the railway tracks to the hidden gems in the Kleinbasel district, the city breathes art. Our workshops tap into this local heritage, often taking inspiration from the murals found in the Gerbergässlein or near the Rhine. We bring the authentic "Basler" street art vibe to our special needs programs, ensuring that the experience feels connected to the city's rich artistic history. It is not just about painting; it is about becoming part of Basel's vibrant, ever-evolving urban canvas in a way that is respectful and accessible to all.

Pricing

We offer competitive pricing for our specialised programs in Basel to make art accessible to as many groups as possible. Our rates typically range from CHF 40 to CHF 85 per person. This price includes all materials, professional artist guidance, and VAT. Because every special needs group has unique requirements regarding staff-to-participant ratios and venue accessibility, we provide bespoke quotes for every booking.

No upfront payment required! You only pay after the workshop has been completed to your satisfaction.
