Do I need any previous art experience to join the workshop?

Not at all! Our Bloemfontein workshops are specifically designed for beginners and tourists who have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics, from how to hold the can to creating clean lines and fades. We provide all the tips and tricks you need to walk away with a piece of art you're genuinely proud of. Just bring your enthusiasm and we'll handle the rest!

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a messy business, and paint has a way of finding its way onto shoes or sleeves. Closed-toe shoes are a must for safety while working outdoors. Think of it as your 'artist's uniform' for the day!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide professional-grade respiratory masks, nitrile gloves, and protective suits for every participant. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or legal graffiti walls around Bloemfontein. Our instructors also give a full safety briefing before we start, ensuring everyone knows how to handle the equipment properly and stay safe while having a blast.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

Standard tourist workshops in Bloemfontein typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, some practice drills, and the creation of your final masterpiece. If you are part of a larger group or have specific requirements, we can adjust the duration to fit your travel itinerary. It's the perfect length to fit between a morning at the zoo and an evening braai!

Can we book a private workshop for our travel group?

Yes, absolutely! We love hosting private groups, whether you're traveling as a family, a group of friends, or a corporate team on retreat. Private workshops allow us to tailor the pace and the theme of the session specifically to your interests. We can accommodate small intimate groups or large parties, making it a highlight of your Bloemfontein visit. Just let us know your group size when booking.

How does the 'pay afterwards' system work?

One of the best things about booking with Graffitifun is our 'no-stress' policy. We don't require any upfront payment or deposits to secure your booking. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you're satisfied with the experience. This gives you total peace of mind for your travel planning. We accept various payment methods on-site for your convenience after the creative fun is done!

What happens if it rains or the artist is sick?

While we usually have a dedicated outdoor spot, we do have access to sheltered locations or backup plans in case of typical Free State thunderstorms. Additionally, we have a network of backup artists available, so even if an instructor falls ill, your workshop won't be cancelled. Your holiday plans are safe with us—we make sure the creativity keeps flowing regardless of the weather!
