Step by step

  1. Design conceptualization: We sit down with festival organizers to align the graffiti theme with the event's vibe and purpose.
  2. Site preparation: Our team arrives early at the Bahir Dar venue to set up mobile walls, drop cloths, and safety barriers.
  3. Safety briefing: Every participant receives a quick but thorough tutorial on how to use spray cans and safety gear properly.
  4. Basic techniques: Our local lead artists demonstrate 'tagging', 'fading', and 'outlining' to get everyone's confidence up.
  5. Collaborative sketching: We help participants sketch their ideas onto the wall using light pressure and pale colors.
  6. The filling stage: This is the fun part! Everyone grabs a can and starts filling the mural with vibrant Ethiopian colors.
  7. Professional finishing touches: Our pro artists go over the edges and add highlights to make the community mural look world-class.
  8. Photo session and cleanup: We capture the final masterpiece in front of the Bahir Dar sun and ensure the area is left spotless.
