What materials are included in the workshop?

For our Los Angeles street art festival workshops, we provide everything you need to create a masterpiece. This includes a wide array of premium spray paint colors, high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or designated wall space. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes and bring your creative energy! We handle the setup and the cleanup so you can focus on the art.

Do I need prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Most of our festival participants have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are experts at breaking down complex techniques into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic safety and nozzle control before moving on to letters and shading. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the professional-looking piece you’ve created. It’s all about having fun and expressing yourself in a supportive environment.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

While we provide protective gear like ponchos and gloves, we highly recommend wearing 'work clothes' or items you don't mind getting a little paint on. Spray paint can be unpredictable, especially with the LA breeze! Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are a must for stability while painting. Since many festivals are outdoors, don't forget your sunglasses and some sunscreen to stay comfortable under the California sun while you work on your mural.

Is the workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odor, professional-grade spray paints and provide high-quality respiratory masks for all participants. Our instructors give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone picks up a can, covering proper ventilation and spraying techniques. We ensure the workspace is organized to prevent trips or spills. Whether it's a small pop-up or a massive festival, we maintain a controlled environment where everyone can create safely.

Can children participate in the festival workshop?

Of course! We love seeing kids get involved in the street art scene. Our festival workshops are generally suitable for children aged 6 and up. We provide smaller gloves and lighter cans where possible to make it easier for younger artists to participate. It's a fantastic way for kids to develop motor skills and confidence. For the very young ones, we always recommend parental supervision to help them navigate the 'big' world of street art.

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard festival workshop sessions typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the basics, practice some techniques, and complete a final collaborative or individual piece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy levels high and creativity flowing without it becoming exhausting. If you have a specific schedule or a revolving festival crowd, we can also offer shorter 'drop-in' style sessions throughout the day.

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

Los Angeles weather is usually on our side, but we always have a plan B! In the event of rain, we try to move the workshop under professional event tents or to a nearby indoor location if available. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we almost never cancel due to staffing issues. If the weather is truly extreme, we will work with you to reschedule or find a suitable indoor alternative so the creative vibe isn't lost.

Local culture

Los Angeles is legendary for its street art history. From the iconic murals of Chicano Park to the world-famous "Global Angel Wings" in the Arts District, the city is a breathing museum of urban expression. Our workshops tap into this rich heritage, honoring the pioneers while teaching modern techniques. We often set up near cultural hubs like Melrose Avenue or the colorful boardwalks of Venice Beach to capture that authentic SoCal spirit.

Fun Fact: Did you know LA is home to the "Great Wall of Los Angeles"? It's one of the longest murals in the world, stretching over half a mile! It’s this kind of scale and ambition that inspires every workshop we run in the City of Angels. ☀️
