Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Galway have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you how to hold the can, control the pressure, and create clean lines. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It's all about having fun and expressing yourself in a relaxed, supportive environment. 🎨

What should I bring with me to the workshop?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes high-quality spray paint in a huge range of colours, protective overalls, gloves, and masks. We also provide the canvases or boards you'll be painting on. Just bring your enthusiasm and wear some comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on! ✨

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 masks and gloves to ensure everyone breathes easy and stays clean. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas, and our experienced instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone starts spraying. We make sure the environment is controlled, professional, and totally secure for artists of all ages. 🛡️

Can I take my artwork home with me?

Depending on the specific package you choose, you can often take your creation home! We usually work on high-quality canvases or boards that are easy to transport. It makes for the ultimate unique souvenir from your trip to the West of Ireland—much better than a standard postcard! If you are part of a large group project, we can discuss options for keeping the final piece.

What happens if it rains during our scheduled time?

The weather in Galway can be 'changeable,' to say the least! Don't worry, we always have a Plan B. We have access to covered outdoor spaces and indoor creative studios where we can run the workshops without getting soaked. Your booking is safe with us, and we’ll ensure you stay dry while you're getting your glow on with the spray cans! 🌧️

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard workshops for tourists usually last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, some practice runs to get used to the equipment, and then the main event where you create your final piece. It’s the perfect length to fit into a busy day of sightseeing around Salthill and the Latin Quarter.

What is the minimum or maximum group size?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you are a solo traveller looking to join a group, a couple on a romantic break, or a large family reunion exploring the Wild Atlantic Way, we can accommodate you. Our pricing is tiered based on group size, so the more people you bring, the better the value. Just let us know your numbers when you enquire!
