Do I need to be an artist to join a Beijing graffiti workshop?

Absolutely no experience is required! Most of our visitors have never held a spray can before in their lives. Our professional artists are there to guide you through every single step, from basic nozzle control to advanced shading. We break down the process into easy-to-digest stages so that you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created by the time we finish. It's all about having fun and letting your inner artist out to play!

Is it safe and what kind of gear do you provide?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't breathing in any fumes, along with protective suits and gloves to keep your clothes clean. Our spray paints are selected for their quality and safety standards. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a worry-free and creative environment for everyone involved.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

Our standard workshops for tourists usually last between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, some practice runs on the wall, and the creation of your final artwork. If you have a larger group or want a more intensive masterclass, we can certainly extend the duration to fit your schedule. It’s the perfect length to fit into a busy day of sightseeing!

What should I wear to my graffiti workshop in Beijing?

We suggest wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide full protective suits and gloves, spray paint can be sneaky. Since many of our Beijing locations are outdoors or in semi-sheltered areas, check the weather forecast and dress in layers if it's chilly, or wear something light and breathable during the humid summer months.

How does the payment process work? Do I pay in advance?

We are very flexible! You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your session. We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you simply pay after the session is complete. This takes the stress out of your travel planning. If your plans change, just let us know in advance. We accept various payment methods to make things as easy as possible for international travellers.

Can I book a workshop for a large group of friends or family?

Yes, we love hosting groups! Whether you're a couple, a family, or a large group of friends travelling through China, we can accommodate you. For larger groups, we often bring in additional backup artists to ensure everyone gets plenty of personal attention and guidance. We can even organise friendly competitions or collaborative mural projects if your group wants to work together on something massive!

What happens if it rains on the day of my booking?

If the weather in Beijing doesn't play ball, don't worry! We have access to several covered and indoor locations across the city to ensure your workshop goes ahead rain or shine. Because we have a team of backup artists available, we are very reliable and rarely have to cancel. We'll always keep you updated on the location status leading up to your booking.

Step by step

Introduction & Safety: Meet your pro artist guide and get kitted out in your protective gear. We’ll cover the basics of spray can safety and nozzle types.
The Blank Canvas: We start by prepping the wall or canvas. Your artist will explain how to approach a large-scale surface without feeling overwhelmed.
Mastering the Can: Learn 'can control'. You'll practice making thin lines, fat dots, and smooth fades on a practice area to get a feel for the pressure.
Sketching your Vision: Use light colours to sketch out your design. Don't worry if you're not an illustrator; we have tips and tricks to make your letters pop.
Filling In: This is the fun part! Start filling your design with vibrant colours, learning how to layer paint for a professional, opaque look.
The Outline: Define your work by adding sharp outlines. This is where your graffiti art really starts to come to life and look 'street'.
Highlights & Details: Add the finishing touches—think shines, 'power lines', and splashes that make the artwork jump off the wall.
The Final Reveal: Step back and admire your work. We’ll take plenty of photos of you with your masterpiece for those holiday memories!

Local culture

Beijing’s street art scene is a fascinating blend of global culture and local grit. While the city is famous for its history, spots like the 798 Art District have become legendary for showcasing the evolution of Chinese contemporary art. Graffiti here isn't just about tagging; it's a colourful dialogue in a rapidly changing city. Working with our artists gives you a unique bridge into this local subculture that most tourists never get to see.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Beijing is home to the "798 Art Zone," a former military factory complex that transformed into the heart of China’s modern art movement? It's filled with hidden murals that tell the story of the city's creative rebirth!

In Beijing, the contrast between the grey hutongs and the neon-bright street art creates a visual energy you won't find anywhere else. Our workshops often take place in locations that capture this "Old meets New" vibe, giving your creative session a backdrop that is uniquely Beijing. From the Olympic spirit to the bustling markets, the inspiration for your graffiti is all around you! 🔥
