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

No prior experience is needed at all! Our workshops are designed for complete beginners. Our professional street artists will guide you through every step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created, even if you’ve never picked up a can of paint in your life. It's all about having fun and being creative!

What should I bring to the workshop?

We provide everything you need for a fantastic creative session. This includes high-quality spray paint in a huge variety of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overall suits to keep your holiday clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or practice walls. Just bring your enthusiasm and wear some comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty while you work on your art.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide professional-grade FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't breathing in paint fumes, along with nitrile gloves. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring a worry-free environment for everyone involved.

Can children participate in the graffiti experience?

Absolutely! Graffiti workshops are a fantastic activity for families visiting Setúbal. We generally recommend a minimum age of 6 or 7 so that children have the hand strength to operate the spray cans. It’s a wonderful way for kids and parents to bond while creating something vibrant and unique together. We ensure the environment is supportive and fun for budding artists of all ages.

How long does the workshop last?

A standard tourist workshop usually lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, plenty of practice time, and the creation of your final piece. If you have a very large group or want a more intensive masterclass, we can easily extend the duration to suit your schedule.

What happens if I need to cancel my booking?

We understand that travel plans can change! That’s why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy and don't require upfront deposits for most bookings. If you need to cancel or reschedule your Setúbal workshop, just let us know as soon as possible. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we are also very reliable and rarely have to cancel on our guests.
