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

Absolutely! Our Dunedin workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a stick figure to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists guide you through every step, starting with basic lines and shapes before moving on to can control. You’ll be amazed at how quickly you can create something that looks professional. It’s all about having fun, getting messy, and expressing your unique personality through the vibrant medium of street art.

What materials are included in the tourist workshop package?

We've got you covered! We provide premium spray paints in a rainbow of colours, high-quality caps for different effects, and protective gear including gloves and overalls to keep your clothes clean. Depending on the session, we’ll provide either a shared wall space or individual canvases. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a little dust on. We handle the rest!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for families and kids?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide masks and gloves, and we only use high-quality spray paints. All workshops take place in well-ventilated areas, often outdoors where the Dunedin fresh air keeps things safe. Our instructors are professional artists who will brief you on the proper way to handle the cans and maintain a safe distance from others while painting. You can focus entirely on your masterpiece!

What happens if it rains on the day of my creative session?

Dunedin can be a bit 'moody' with its weather, but we’re prepared! Most of our workshop locations are either sheltered or have indoor alternatives available. If the weather is truly uncooperative, we have backup plans to ensure your creative session goes ahead without a hitch. We rarely cancel, so you can book your travel itinerary with confidence knowing we’ll make the magic happen regardless of the clouds.

How long does the graffiti experience actually take?

Our standard tourist workshops typically run between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, a demo of different techniques, some practice time, and then the main event—creating your final piece. It’s a fast-paced, high-energy session that fits perfectly into a busy day of sightseeing around the Octagon or the Otago Peninsula. You’ll leave with memories and a new set of skills.

Can I take my artwork home with me after the session?

Yes, you can! We offer various packages where you can paint on high-quality canvases that are easy to pack in your suitcase or ship home. It’s the ultimate Dunedin souvenir—one that you actually made yourself! If you choose a wall-painting session, we’ll make sure to take professional-quality photos of you and your work so you can share your New Zealand street art journey with everyone back home.

Local culture

Dunedin is widely considered the street art capital of New Zealand. Since 2014, the Dunedin Street Art Trail has transformed the city's historic walls into an open-air gallery featuring international legends and local gems. Rolling through the Warehouse Precinct, you'll see massive murals that tell the story of the city's heritage and its cheeky, modern spirit.

Fun Fact: Did you know Dunedin is home to some of the tallest street art murals in the Southern Hemisphere? Some pieces take over a week and hundreds of cans to finish!

Our workshops tap into this local energy, giving you a chance to understand the techniques used by the artists you see on high-profile walls near Vogel Street. It’s the perfect way to connect with the local "Dunedinite" culture through creativity and colour.
