Do I need to have any artistic talent or experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our workshops in Mount Hagen are designed for everyone, from people who struggle to draw a stick figure to seasoned artists. Our professional street artists will guide you through the process step-by-step, starting with basic can control and moving up to layering and shading. You will be amazed at what you can create in just a couple of hours with a bit of expert guidance and the right tools.

Is it safe, and what gear do you provide?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep your clothes clean and your lungs safe. We use high-grade spray paint with lower VOC levels where possible. Our instructors are trained in site safety and will manage the 'spray zone' to ensure everyone has a fun, risk-free experience while they are unleashing their inner rebel on the canvas.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

We are very flexible! A standard festival workshop session usually lasts between 90 minutes and 3 hours. However, for large-scale events in the Western Highlands, we can run 'drop-in' style sessions throughout the day. This allows hundreds of festival-goers to contribute to a massive communal mural over several hours, ensuring everyone gets a chance to pick up a can and leave their mark.

What is the minimum age for participants?

Generally, our workshops are best suited for children aged 6 and up, as they need the hand strength to press the spray nozzles. For the younger kids at Mount Hagen events, we often set up 'marker zones' or use water-based chalk sprays that are easier to handle. We always ensure supervised environments to keep the little ones safe while they explore their creative side.

How much does it cost to book a festival workshop?

Because every festival is unique, our pricing depends on your specific needs, the number of participants, and the duration of the event. We offer transparent, competitive quotes with no hidden costs. The best part? You don't have to pay a penny upfront. You only pay after the workshop is successfully completed, ensuring you are 100% satisfied with the creative energy we bring to your event.

What happens if it rains or there is a cancellation?

Mount Hagen's weather can be unpredictable, but we've got you covered! If the heavens open, we can often move the workshop under gazebos or large event tents. We also have a network of backup artists ready to go, so even if an instructor is unwell, your workshop will proceed as planned. We are committed to making sure the show goes on, come rain or shine!

Can you host workshops for groups other than festivals?

While we thrive at large street art festivals, we also bring the spray paint magic to school groups in Lae, corporate brand activations in Port Moresby, and even private bachelor parties. Whether it is a small team-building session or a massive public mural project, we scale our equipment and staff to match the energy of your specific event and location.

Local culture

Mount Hagen is world-renowned for its incredible cultural displays and the legendary Hagen Show, but there is a growing appetite for modern creative outlets that blend tradition with contemporary flair. Street art provides the perfect bridge! We love the way the vivid colours of the Highlands' flora and the intricate patterns of local "bilum" designs can be reimagined through the lens of urban graffiti. It’s about taking that ancient storytelling spirit and splashing it across a modern canvas. 🎤

Fun fact: Mount Hagen sits at an elevation of about 1,677 metres! This high-altitude air actually helps the spray paint dry slightly faster, making it a fantastic spot for layering complex mural details! 🏆
