How long does a typical street art workshop session last?

Most of our Genoa festival workshops last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives you plenty of time to learn the basic strokes, understand colour theory, and complete your own masterpiece. We find this is the perfect 'sweet spot' for keeping energy high and creativity flowing without it becoming exhausting for your arms! If you're looking for something more intensive, we can always customise the duration for your specific event.

Do I need to have any prior artistic experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a stick figure to seasoned illustrators. Our professional artists guide you through every step, starting with simple tagging and moving up to complex fills and 3D effects. You'll be amazed at what you can create with the right guidance and a bit of 'can-do' attitude. It's all about the experience and having a blast with the paint.

What materials are included in the workshop package?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes premium spray cans in a rainbow of colours, caps for different line widths, high-quality canvases or boards, and essential protective gear like gloves and masks. We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers just in case a bit of 'art' lands on you, but we take safety and cleanliness very seriously. Just bring your enthusiasm and we'll handle the rest!

Is the spray paint safe to use for kids and beginners?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We use high-quality spray paint and provide all participants with protective masks and gloves. Our instructors are professional artists who supervise every move to ensure the cans are used correctly and safely. Furthermore, we usually host these sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated festival zones, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for all participants to breathe easily and enjoy the process.

Can you host the workshop at a specific festival location or venue?

We are incredibly flexible when it comes to locations in Genoa! Whether you're hosting a festival at the Porto Antico, a private garden in Castelletto, or a corporate space near Boccadasse, we can bring the workshop to you. We provide mobile graffiti walls and protective flooring to ensure we leave no trace behind—except for the beautiful art you've created on our portable surfaces. We're experts at setting up professional pop-up studios anywhere.

How do payments work and is there a cancellation policy?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'fun first' policy. We don't require any upfront payments to secure your booking; you simply pay after the workshop is completed and you're happy with the results. We want you to feel completely confident in our service. Plus, we have backup artists ready to go, so even if an emergency happens, your festival event in Genoa will never be cancelled. We've got you covered!

Step by step

Intro and safety briefing: We kick things off with a quick chat about the history of graffiti and a vital safety demo on how to handle the cans properly.
Learning the nozzle: You'll get your hands on the spray cans and practice 'fat' and 'skinny' lines to understand how pressure and distance change your art.
Sketching your design: Grab a marker or a can and map out the basic structure of your piece on the canvas or wall under our artist's guidance.
Filling in the colour: This is where the magic happens! Learn how to apply smooth, even layers of paint to fill your shapes without making a mess.
Mastering the outline: We'll show you how to 'cut' your lines to make your graffiti look sharp, professional, and bold.
Adding 3D and shadows: Give your work some depth! Our pro artists will teach you where to add shadows to make your letters pop off the surface.
Highlights and 'flares': The final touches! Add some white highlights or 'star' effects to make your masterpiece truly shine.
The big reveal: Step back, admire your work, and take some epic photos with your creation before the festival crowd.

Local culture

Genoa isn't just about pesto and historic ships; it's a city where the old-world charm of the Centro Storico meets a gritty, modern creative edge. The city's street art scene has exploded in recent years, with magnificent murals decorating the walls near the Porto Antico and the Certosa district. Our workshops tap into this local 'Genovese' energy, blending the tradition of Italian craftsmanship with the rebellious spirit of modern graffiti. There’s something special about spraying paint in a city that’s been an architectural masterpiece for centuries! 🎨

Fun Fact: Genoa is home to 'On the Wall', a massive urban art project that transformed the buildings of Certosa into a giant open-air gallery, proving that the city's heart beats for street art!

Pricing

Our workshop prices in Genoa are designed to be as flexible as our art. Depending on how many people are joining and the scale of the setup, prices typically range between €25 and €55 per person. We don't believe in hidden fees or charging for fun you haven't had yet—that's why you only pay after the workshop! 💸
