Is the graffiti workshop safe for participants with sensory sensitivities?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odour, water-based spray paints whenever necessary and provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and aprons. Our artists are specially trained to supervise segments closely, ensuring that every participant stays safe while they explore their creativity. We also choose accessible locations in Tamale that provide plenty of space and ventilation for a comfortable experience.

Where in Tamale do these workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible with our locations! We can host the workshop at a venue of your choice in Tamale—whether that is a school hall, a community centre, or a private garden—provided there is adequate ventilation. Alternatively, we can help arrange a suitable outdoor spot. Our team handles the setup and cleanup, so you don't have to worry about a thing except having a great time.

Do participants need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, especially those who have never picked up a spray can before. We focus on the 'fun' element of art rather than technical perfection. Our friendly instructors guide everyone through simple techniques, like making dots, lines, and fills, allowing each participant to progress at their own pace and build confidence while creating something they can be proud of.

How long does a typical special needs session last?

Our workshops generally last between 1.5 to 3 hours. For our special needs programs in Tamale, we usually recommend a 2-hour session. This allows enough time for a relaxed introduction, a demonstration, and plenty of hands-on painting time without it becoming overstimulating or tiring. We can always adjust the schedule to fit the specific energy levels and attention spans of your particular group.

What materials do we need to provide?

We provide everything! This includes premium spray paint in a rainbow of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or boards that the participants will paint on. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and wear comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of dust on. We take care of all the logistics.

What happens if we need to cancel or change our booking?

We understand that plans can change. One of the unique benefits of booking with Graffitifun is our 'pay after' policy. There is no upfront payment required to secure your date. If you need to reschedule or cancel due to unforeseen circumstances, just let us know as soon as possible. We also have backup artists available to ensure that your event goes ahead even if an instructor falls ill.
