Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our Zurich graffiti workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic spray techniques and safety. You'll be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive once you learn the fundamentals of pressure control and layering. Most of our tourist guests have never held a spray can before they join us!

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a bit messy, and stray paint particles can travel. It's best to leave your designer gear at the hotel for the day and opt for something practical so you can focus entirely on your masterpiece.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our top priority. We provide all necessary protective equipment, including professional-grade masks and gloves. We typically conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or legal street art zones in Zurich to ensure a safe environment. Our artists are highly experienced and will provide a thorough safety briefing before anyone starts spraying, ensuring a fun and worry-free experience for all ages.

How much does a tourist graffiti workshop in Zurich cost?

Prices generally range between CHF 40 and CHF 85 per person. The final cost depends on your group size, the duration of the session, and whether we are working on a shared mural or individual canvases. We believe in transparency, which is why we don't require upfront payments—you only pay after the workshop is complete. For a precise estimate, just use our online cost calculator!

How long does the experience take?

Standard workshops for tourists usually last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for an introduction to street art history, a demonstration of techniques, plenty of practice time, and the creation of your final artwork. If you have a tight travel schedule, let us know, and we can often tailor the timing to fit your itinerary through Zurich comfortably.

What happens if it rains on the day of my booking?

Zurich is beautiful, but the weather can be unpredictable. Many of our locations have covered sections that allow us to continue even if it's drizzling. In the event of extreme weather, we have backup artists and flexible scheduling to move the workshop to a better time or a different sheltered spot. We always aim to ensure your creative experience isn't dampened by a bit of Swiss rain!

Local culture

Zurich might be famous for its pristine lakeside and banking district, but beneath the polished surface lies a world-class street art culture. Areas like the Rote Fabrik and the industrial corners of Zürich West are buzzing hubs of urban creativity. The city has a unique relationship with graffiti, blending Swiss precision with raw, underground energy. Our workshops often take place in these culturally rich spots, giving you a taste of the real local vibe away from the tourist traps.

Fun Fact: Did you know Zurich was home to Harald Naegeli, known as the "Sprayer of Zurich"? He became world-famous in the late 1970s for his minimalist wire-frame figures, sparking a massive debate about art versus vandalism that still influences the city today! 🎨
