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

Absolutely no experience is required! Our professional artists specialize in teaching beginners. We start with the basics of how to hold a spray can and move on to techniques like shading and outlining. Most of our festival participants in Jijiga have never touched street art tools before, and they always leave with something they are proud of. It is all about having fun and expressing yourself!

Is the workshop safe and are materials provided?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control and produce less fumes. Our instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone starts spraying, ensuring a secure environment for kids and adults alike to enjoy the creative process without any worries.

How long does a typical street art session last?

Standard festival workshops in Jijiga typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on practice for you to complete your masterpiece. If you are planning a larger event or a brand activation, we can adjust the timing to fit your specific schedule.

What is the maximum group size for a festival workshop?

We love a big crowd! We can accommodate groups ranging from 10 people to over 100. For very large festivals, we set up multiple stations or a massive 'free-for-all' wall where everyone can contribute a small piece to a giant collaborative mural. Just let us know your expected numbers, and we will bring enough paint and artists to handle everyone!

Can we paint on actual walls in the city?

While we can set up temporary wooden walls or use large canvases, we often work on existing walls if you have the proper permits. If you have a specific spot in Jijiga you want to beautify, let us know! Otherwise, we bring our own mobile setups so we can bring the street art experience literally anywhere—from a dusty field to a paved courtyard.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide full protective gear like suits and gloves, street art is a hands-on activity. Other than that, just bring your energy and creativity. We handle all the professional spray paint, caps, and canvases.

How do I book a session for my event?

Booking is super easy and there's no upfront payment required! You can use our online Cost Calculator to get an instant estimate, then reach out to us to lock in your date. We have backup artists ready to go, so you never have to worry about a cancellation. You only pay after the workshop is successfully completed and everyone is happy!

Local culture

Jijiga is a city of movement, trade, and incredibly deep culture. It’s the gateway to the east, and we believe its walls should reflect that unique energy! While the city is famous for its vibrant markets and the beautiful Karamara Mountains, the emerging street art scene is adding a modern, urban layer to its identity. We love incorporating local Somali patterns and motifs into our festival murals to create something that feels truly 'Jijiga.' 🇸🇴 🇪🇹

Fun Fact: Did you know that Jijiga has some of the widest streets in the region? That means more space for epic public art and festival vibes!
