Do I need to be an artist to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Our workshops are designed for beginners of all ages. Many festival-goers in Athens have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics, from safety to nozzle techniques, ensuring you create something you're proud of. It is all about having fun and expressing yourself in a safe, supportive environment, regardless of your previous artistic experience.

What safety measures do you provide during the festival?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP2 masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. We only use low-pressure spray cans which are much easier to control and produce less fumes. Our experienced instructors supervise every step of the process, ensuring all safety protocols are followed while you enjoy the street art experience.

What should I wear to the graffiti event?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and old shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide full protective suits and gloves, spray paint can be unpredictable in the wind! If you are planning to spend the day at the festival in Athens, light, breathable fabrics are best for the Greek sunshine. We will handle the rest of the gear!

How long does the graffiti experience last?

A standard festival workshop session usually lasts between 90 minutes and 2 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of Greek street art, practice basic strokes, and complete a final piece. If you are organising a larger festival activation, we can run back-to-back sessions or a continuous 'drop-in' format to suit your event's specific schedule.

Can we take photos or videos of our work?

Definitely! We encourage everyone to take photos and videos of their progress. It is a fantastic way to document your creative journey in Athens. In fact, our artists often help you find the best 'Insta-worthy' angles for your finished work. Don't forget to tag us and the festival in your stories – we love seeing the different styles people come up with!

What happens if it rains on the day of the event?

We always have a Plan B. If the Athenian weather doesn't cooperate, we often look for covered outdoor spaces or move the workshop to a suitable indoor area with extra ventilation. We also have a network of backup artists available, so your booking is secure even if an instructor is unexpectedly unavailable. We make sure the creative flow never stops.

How do the costs work for festival workshops?

Our pricing is flexible and depends on your group size, the duration of the workshop, and the specific materials required. For festivals, we offer different packages ranging from individual slots to large-scale collaborative murals. To get the best value and a setup that fits your event perfectly, we recommend reaching out for a custom quote tailored to your needs.

Local culture

In Athens, street art isn't just decoration; it's a conversation. From the massive murals in Exarcheia to the hidden stencils in the Plaka alleyways, graffiti is woven into the city's identity. The Athenian scene is famous for its political depth, poetic expressions, and incredible technical skill. When you join our workshop at a local festival, you aren't just spraying paint—you're joining a tradition of public expression that stretches back to the ancient agora (though our tools are a bit more modern!). We embrace this local vibe, encouraging participants to draw inspiration from the city's blend of ancient ruins and gritty urban realism. It’s about energy, community, and the unique light of the Mediterranean reflecting off a freshly painted wall.
