Do I need any previous art experience to join? Quick Answer: No!

Absolutely not! Our Cologne street art festival workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to closet Picassos. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics of handling a spray can, from simple lines to complex shading. You'll be amazed at what you can create in just a few hours with the right guidance. It's all about having fun and expressing yourself!

Is the workshop safe/clean? Quick Answer: Yes, we provide full gear.

We take safety seriously while you're busy being creative. We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and professional masks to keep the paint on the wall and off your clothes. We also use low-pressure cans for better control and safety. Our experienced instructors supervise every step, ensuring a safe, clean, and totally enjoyable environment for all ages.

What happens if it rains during the event? Quick Answer: We have a plan B!

In the spirit of a true street art festival, we usually forge ahead! If it's just a light Köln drizzle, we often work under cover or use quick-drying techniques. However, for heavy rain, we have backup indoor locations or can reschedule to ensure you get the best experience possible. We always keep a close eye on the Cologne forecast to keep you updated.

Is there a maximum group size? Quick Answer: We cater to all sizes!

Groups of all sizes are welcome at our festival workshops! Whether you're a small group of friends or a massive corporate team of 100+, we have the gear and the artists to handle it. We scale our setup based on your numbers to ensure everyone gets plenty of space and attention. The more people, the more colourful the final wall looks!

Can I take my artwork home with me? Quick Answer: Yes, usually!

Yes! While we often work on large collaborative murals during festivals, most workshops include an individual canvas or board that you can take home. It serves as a fantastic souvenir of your time in Cologne. We use fast-drying paint, so it's usually ready to pack up by the end of the session. Show it off on your wall at home!

How long does a typical workshop session last? Quick Answer: 1.5 to 3 hours.

A standard festival workshop session lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of graffiti, practice some techniques, and complete a final masterpiece. If you're looking for something shorter or longer, we can customise the duration to fit into your festival schedule perfectly. It's the perfect length for a high-energy creative burst.

How do I pay for the workshop? Quick Answer: Pay after the fun!

We love the spontaneity of street art, so we don't require upfront payments! You can book your slot and pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. We believe in our service so much that we want you to be totally happy before we settle up the bill. It's all about trust and fun!

Local culture

Cologne isn't just about cathedrals and carnival; it’s a living, breathing canvas. The district of Ehrenfeld is legendary in the European street art scene, acting as an open-air gallery for international and local talent alike. When you join our workshop, you're tapping into a city that celebrates urban expression at every corner, from the Belgian Quarter to the industrial walls of Mülheim. 🎨
