Do I need to be an artist or have prior experience?

Absolutely no experience is required! Most of our visitors in Palermo have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert teachers who will guide you through the process step-by-step. We start with the basics of nozzle control and safety before moving on to 'filling' and 'outlining'. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've managed to create. It's all about having fun and being creative!

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty. While we provide high-quality protective overalls, shoe covers, and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be a bit messy. It’s best to leave your designer gear at the hotel just in case! If it's a sunny Sicilian day, don't forget your sunglasses and a bit of sunscreen, as many of our best spots are outdoors.

Is the paint dangerous or toxic?

Safety is our top priority. We provide professional-grade FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't breathing in any fumes, along with gloves and protective suits. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas or outdoor spaces. Our instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a worry-free environment for families, solo travellers, and groups alike. You’re in very safe, experienced hands.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

A standard tourist workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of the art form, practice basic techniques on a practice wall, and then execute your final design. If you have a larger group or want a more in-depth masterclass, we can extend the duration to 3 hours. It’s the perfect length to fit into a busy sightseeing schedule.

What happens if I need to cancel or if the weather is bad?

We pride ourselves on being flexible! One of the best things about Graffitifun is that you don't need to pay everything upfront. You can book your spot and pay after the workshop. We also have a dedicated team of backup artists in Palermo, so even if an instructor falls ill, your creative session will almost never be cancelled. We want your holiday to be as stress-free as possible.

Can I take photos during the session?

Of course! We encourage you to take as many photos and videos as you like to document your creative journey in Palermo. Our artists are also happy to snap a few group shots of you in action against your finished mural. It’s a fantastic way to remember your Italian holiday and show off your new skills to friends back home. Don't forget to tag us in your masterpieces!

Gear up: Put on your protective overalls, gloves, and mask. We provide everything you need to stay clean and safe while you paint.
Can control 101: Learn the basics. We’ll show you how to hold the can, swap nozzles (caps), and control the pressure for different effects.
Sketching your ideas: Grab some paper or go straight to the wall. Our artists help you refine your concept, from classic tags to modern characters.
Practice run: Try your first lines on a practice section. This is where you get a feel for the distance and speed needed to avoid drips.
Creating the masterpiece: Now the real fun begins! Start applying your colours to the main canvas or wall, following your sketch.
Adding the details: Learn how to 'outline' and 'highlight' to make your artwork pop. This is the secret step that makes graffiti look professional.
The finishing touch: Add your signature or 'tag' to your work. Step back and admire what you’ve created in the heart of Sicily.
Photo op: We’ll take professional-style photos of you with your art before we wrap up and say our goodbyes.

Local culture

Palermo is a city of layers, where ancient history meets a gritty, modern street soul. From the bustling alleys of the Vucciria market to the renovated walls of the Danisinni district, street art has become a vital part of the city's rebirth. Our workshops tap into this local energy, giving you a taste of the authentic Palermo that most tourists miss. You won't just be painting; you'll be partaking in a living tradition of Sicilian expression.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Palermo is home to some of Europe's largest social street art projects? Entire neighbourhoods have been transformed into open-air galleries, proving that the 'Zisa' and 'Kalsa' districts are just as artistic as the city's famous cathedrals! 🇮🇹
