Is the graffiti workshop safe for people with disabilities?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. Our workshops in Rotorua are often held in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or large indoor areas. Our professional artists are trained to supervise the use of spray cans carefully, ensuring everyone has a blast while staying completely safe throughout the creative process. We make sure the environment is relaxed and controlled.

What is the ideal group size for this program?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you have a small group of three or a larger gathering of twenty, we can tailor the session to suit. For special needs programs, we recommend smaller ratios so our artists can provide plenty of one-on-one encouragement and assistance. Just let us know your group size when you get in touch, and we will arrange the perfect setup for your Rotorua adventure.

Do participants need previous art experience?

Not at all! This experience is all about expression, not perfection. Many of our participants have never held a spray can before. Our friendly local artists will guide everyone through the 'basics of the beep'—from making simple dots to creating cool fades. We focus on the joy of movement and the excitement of seeing bright colours appear on a canvas. It is all about having a go!

What materials are included in the workshop?

We bring everything! Your booking includes all the professional-grade spray paint, caps, safety gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the canvases or boards we will be painting on. You just need to show up in some comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of 'art' on, just in case. We handle the setup and the cleanup so you can focus on the fun.

How long does a typical session last?

Most of our special needs workshops in Rotorua run for about 1.5 to 2 hours. This is usually the 'sweet spot' for maintaining high energy and focus without getting too tired. However, we can easily shorten or extend the session based on the specific needs and energy levels of your group. We work at your pace to ensure everyone feels included and successful.

Can we keep the artwork we create?

Of course! We love it when participants take their masterpieces home. Usually, we paint on large individual canvases or wooden panels that can be easily transported once the paint is dry (which happens quite fast!). It is a fantastic way for participants to remember their creative achievement and show off their skills to friends and family in Rotorua.

Are the workshop locations wheelchair accessible?

Accessibility is key. We work with several venues across Rotorua that offer flat, wheelchair-accessible surfaces and accessible bathroom facilities. If you have a specific location in mind, like a community centre or a park, we can come to you! We check every site beforehand to ensure there are no barriers for participants with mobility aids.

The experience

We know that traditional art classes can sometimes feel a bit restrictive. That’s why our special needs program is designed to be high-energy and low-pressure. Here is why people love our Rotorua sessions:

Sensory satisfaction: The sound of the rattle, the feel of the spray, and the instant bright colours provide amazing sensory feedback. 🎨
Confidence boost: There are no 'mistakes' in graffiti, only layers! This builds immense self-esteem for participants.
Expert guidance: Our artists aren't just talented; they are patient, encouraging, and experienced with diverse learners.
Fully inclusive: We adapt our tools and techniques—like using spray triggers—to suit different motor skills. 💪
Social connection: It is a great way to bond with peers and carers in a relaxed, outdoorsy Rotorua setting. 🎉
Professional & Safe: We use top-tier safety gear and have backup artists on call so your event never gets cancelled.

Step by step

Get in touch: Reach out to us with your group's specific needs and your preferred dates in Rotorua.
Custom planning: We chat about any mobility or sensory requirements to ensure the workshop is perfectly tailored.
Safe setup: On the day, we set up a dedicated 'spray zone' with all the gear and drop sheets.
Suit up: Everyone gets fitted with protective overalls, masks, and gloves—feeling like a real pro artist!

First sprays: Participants start with a 'free play' session to get used to the feel of the spray can.
Guided creation: We work together on a specific theme or individual canvases, applying vibrant colours.
Final touches: Add those cool outlines or 'splatter' effects to make the artwork pop.

Local culture

Rotorua is world-famous for its geothermal wonders and rich Māori culture, but it’s also home to a growing and vibrant street art scene. From the stunning murals near Kuirua Park to the hidden gems in the CBD, 'Rotovegas' is a city that embraces visual storytelling. We bring that same local energy to our workshops, often drawing inspiration from the natural beauty of Lake Rotorua and the Whakarewarewa Forest. 🌋

Fun Fact: Did you know that some of the geothermal steam vents in Rotorua were historically used by artists to help dry natural pigments? While we use modern spray cans today, that spirit of using the environment for art lives on!

If you're looking for other ways to get involved in the Kiwi art scene, we also host workshops in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, and Hamilton.
