Do I need any previous art experience to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Our Brisbane street art festival workshops are designed for everyone from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through everything from basic can control and line work to more advanced shading techniques. You don't need to be 'artistic' to have a blast – we're all about expressing yourself and having a crack in a supportive, fun environment.

What materials are included in the festival workshop?

We’ve got you covered. All participants are provided with high-quality spray paint, a variety of nozzles (caps), and safety gear including masks and gloves. We also provide canvases or designated wall space depending on the festival setup. We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a bit of 'character' on, as paint can occasionally wander!

Is it safe to use spray paint at a public festival?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality paints and provide all necessary protective equipment, including professional-grade respiratory masks and gloves. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can. We ensure the workspace is well-ventilated and that everyone follows proper 'spray etiquette' to keep the vibe fun and safe for all.

How long does a typical graffiti workshop session last?

For our festival activations in Brisbane, sessions usually range from a quick 30-minute 'taster' to a more intensive 2-hour masterclass. This flexibility allows festival-goers to drop in, create something awesome, and still have plenty of time to explore the rest of the event. We can customise the duration to fit the specific schedule of your festival or community event.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

One of the best parts of our Brisbane festival workshops is that you get to keep what you create! If we are working on individual canvases or boards, you can take your unique piece of street art home to hang on your wall. If we are working on a massive collaborative mural, you'll have plenty of opportunities to take epic photos with your contribution before the festival wraps up.

What is your cancellation and payment policy?

We understand that plans can change. That's why we don't require any upfront payment for our bookings. You can secure your date and pay after the workshop is completed. Additionally, we have a large team of backup artists available across Queensland, so even if an instructor falls ill, your festival event is guaranteed to go ahead without a hitch.

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

While we love a good outdoor session under the Brissie sun, we always have a Plan B. If the weather turns sour, we can move the workshop under marquees or into indoor spaces using low-odour, water-based spray paints that are safe for indoor use. The creativity doesn't stop just because of a bit of rain – we'll make sure the festival vibes stay high!

Mastering the lines: You'll practice basic movements—lines, dots, and fades—to get a feel for the pressure and speed required.
Sketching the concept: Whether it's a 'tag' or a 'piece', we help you sketch out your design on the canvas or wall using light colours.
Filling in: This is where the magic happens! You'll learn how to fill large areas smoothly without getting those pesky drips.
Cutting and outlining: We teach you how to 'cut' back with background colours to sharpen your edges and make your design pop.
Highlights and details: Add that final flair with highlights, 3D effects, and sparkles to give your work a professional finish.
The grand reveal: Step back, admire your handiwork, and grab some photos of your masterpiece for the 'Gram!

Local culture

Brisbane’s street art scene has absolutely exploded over the last decade. From the iconic murals in Fish Lane at South Brisbane to the hidden gems tucked away in the alleyways of West End, the city is a canvas of world-class urban art. Our workshops tap into this local energy, celebrating the unique 'Brissie' style that blends tropical vibes with gritty street aesthetics. We love being part of the local festival circuit, bringing the same spirit you see at the Brisbane Street Art Festival (BSAF) directly to your hands.

Fun Fact: Did you know Brisbane is home to some of the largest legal street art walls in the Southern Hemisphere? The city’s commitment to public art makes it the perfect backdrop for your first graffiti experience! 🎨
