What should I wear to a graffiti workshop in Port Elizabeth?

For our Port Elizabeth street art experiences, we recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a bit of 'character' on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or shoes. It is all part of the authentic artist experience! Since many of our festival setups are outdoors near the coast, bringing a hat and sunscreen is also a smart move.

Do I need any prior art experience to participate?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for everyone from absolute beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through everything from basic can control and 'tagging' to advanced layering and shading techniques. We focus on the 'fun' in Graffitifun, ensuring that by the end of the session, you’ll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It is all about discovering your inner artist in a relaxed, vibe-filled environment.

Is the spray paint safe for kids and beginners?

Safety is our top priority. we provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 respiratory masks to ensure you aren't inhaling any fumes, along with gloves and protective suits. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open festival spaces. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring a worry-free experience for kids and adults alike. We make sure the environment is as safe as it is creative.

Can you host the workshop at my own event location?

We are totally flexible! While we have amazing outdoor locations and festival partnerships across Gqeberha, we can also bring the entire graffiti experience to your specific event location. Whether it's a school field, a corporate parking lot, or a private venue, we set up mobile 'graffiti walls' and protective flooring. Rain or shine, we can usually make a plan to ensure your street art festival experience goes off without a hitch.

How long does a typical street art session last?

Our standard festival-style workshops usually run between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows for a proper introduction to the history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, practice time, and the final creation of your own artwork. For larger public festivals, we often run shorter 'drop-in' sessions throughout the day so that more people can get a taste of the spray-painting action. We can tailor the duration to fit your event's specific schedule.

How does the payment process work? Do I pay upfront?

At Graffitifun, we believe in stress-free booking. You don't need to pay anything upfront to secure your date. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed and everyone is happy with their experience. We accept various payment methods and will provide a clear invoice. This 'pay-after' policy is our way of showing that we are 100% committed to your satisfaction and the success of your Port Elizabeth event.

Can I take my graffiti art home with me?

Absolutely! While we love collaborative murals where everyone contributes to one massive piece of art, we also offer sessions where you can paint on individual canvases or boards. This means you get to take your unique creation home to hang on your wall as a souvenir of your Port Elizabeth street art journey. Just let us know your preference when booking so we can bring the right materials for your group.

Local culture

Port Elizabeth (or Gqeberha, as we love to call it) is far more than just the 'Windy City'—it's a canvas waiting to be painted. From the stunning Route 67 art trail to the hidden gems in Baakens Valley, the city is pulsing with creative energy. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, drawing inspiration from the coastal landscapes and the diverse urban culture of the Eastern Cape. We love bringing the festival vibe to spots like Richmond Hill or the vibe-heavy Central district, where the architecture itself tells a story.

Fun Fact: Did you know that PE is home to Route 67? It’s a collection of 67 public artworks symbolising the 67 years Nelson Mandela dedicated to the freedom of South Africa. It’s one of the most concentrated street art journeys in the country! 🇿🇦

Pricing

Our Port Elizabeth graffiti experiences are competitively priced to ensure everyone can join the fun. Pricing typically ranges from R400 to R900 per person.

Please note that total costs depend on the number of participants, the length of the activation, and the specific material requirements for your event.
