Do I need to be an artist to participate?

You don't need any prior experience to join our Kimberley street art festival workshops! Our professional artists guide you through everything from holding the spray can correctly to mastering complex shading techniques. Whether you are a total beginner or a casual doodler, we provide a supportive environment where you can let your creativity run wild. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before they arrive, and they leave with amazing artworks!

Is the workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint and conduct all sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas at the festival. Our Kimberley instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before any paint is sprayed, ensuring everyone understands the equipment and how to use it responsibly while having a blast.

What should I wear to the festival workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable old clothes and closed-toe shoes that you don't mind getting a little 'colourful.' While we provide protective gear like ponchos and gloves, spray paint is permanent and a few stray droplets can sometimes find their way onto your sleeves or sneakers. Think of it as a badge of honour from your creative adventure in the Diamond City!

How long does the experience last?

The graffiti workshops at our festivals typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, practice basic techniques on plastic film, and then move on to creating your masterpiece on a canvas or a designated festival wall. It’s the perfect amount of time to get into the 'flow' without feeling rushed or exhausted.

Is this activity suitable for children and teens?

Absolutely! While it's great fun for adults, kids and teenagers love the tactile nature of graffiti. We offer specialized guidance for younger participants to ensure they use the cans correctly. It is a fantastic way for South African youth to express themselves through a modern medium. We adjust our teaching style based on the age group to make sure everyone feels like a pro.

How does the payment process work?

No upfront payment is required! At Graffitifun, we believe in the quality of our service and the fun of the experience. You can book your spot at the Kimberley street art festival and pay after the workshop. We want you to feel completely confident and excited about your creative journey with us, without any financial stress beforehand.

Can you handle large groups or corporate festivals?

If you are planning a large scale brand activation or a massive community festival in the Northern Cape, we’ve got you covered. We have a roster of backup artists to ensure your event always goes ahead as planned. We can scale our workshops to accommodate hundreds of participants throughout the day, ensuring everyone gets a chance to pick up a can and contribute to the local art scene.

Local culture

Kimberley might be famous for the Big Hole and its rich diamond-mining history, but the local art scene is quickly becoming its newest treasure. Bringing a street art festival to this historic city creates a beautiful contrast between the Victorian architecture and cutting-edge urban creativity. The "City that Sparkles" provides the perfect backdrop for vibrant murals that tell the stories of the Northern Cape. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know Kimberley was the first city in the Southern Hemisphere to integrate electric street lights? That legendary glow makes it a fantastic place for evening street art showcases! ✨

Our workshops celebrate this local spirit, encouraging participants to draw inspiration from the city's unique landscape and resilient community. We're proud to contribute to the growing mural culture across South Africa, from the bustling streets of Johannesburg to the coastal vibes of Cape Town.
