Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Sligo 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, friendly environment.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We’ve got you covered. We provide high-quality overalls, gloves, and masks to keep your clothes and lungs protected. However, graffiti can be a bit messy, so we recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you wouldn’t mind getting a tiny speck of paint on, just in case. We want you to focus on your art, not your outfit!

How long does the graffiti experience last?

Our standard tourist workshops in Sligo usually last between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time to go through the safety briefing, practice techniques on the practice wall, and then complete your final piece on an individual canvas or a communal mural. It’s the perfect length to fit into a busy day of sightseeing!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our primary concern. we use low-pressure spray paint which is easier to handle, and we provide all necessary safety gear, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks and nitrile gloves. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas, and our professional instructors supervise every step of the process to ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable time.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

One of the best parts of our Sligo tourist workshop is that you get to keep what you create! You’ll paint on a high-quality canvas that you can take home as the ultimate souvenir of your Irish holiday. If we are working on a large collective mural, we’ll make sure you get plenty of high-res photos to share on your socials.

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 have backup artists ready to step in. If you need to reschedule or cancel your Sligo booking, just let us know as soon as possible. We strive for 100% satisfaction and flexibility for our guests.

Local culture

Sligo has always been a town of artists and dreamers, famously inspiring the poet W.B. Yeats. Today, that creative energy is flowing through a new medium: street art. While strolling through the town, you'll spot murals that blend traditional Irish folklore with modern urban styles. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, giving you a chance to contribute to Sligo's ever-evolving visual story. We often host our sessions in locations that capture the "Land of Heart's Desire" vibe, ensuring your creative session is as atmospheric as it is fun. ✨

Fun Fact: Did you know that Sligo's name comes from the Irish 'Sligeach', meaning 'shelly place'? While you won't be painting on shells, the coastal textures of the Atlantic often inspire the colours we use in our Sligo sessions! 🌊

Pricing

Our Sligo graffiti experiences are priced competitively to ensure every traveller can join the fun. Prices typically range from €30 to €60 per person, depending on the number of participants and the specific setup of your workshop. Whether you want a private session or a group mural experience, we offer great value for a truly unique Irish memory.

We believe in flexibility, which is why we don't require upfront payments—you can pay after you've had your fun! 🏆
