Do students need any previous art experience?

Absolutely! Our Basel university workshops are specifically designed for beginners. Our professional street artists start with the basics, including safety, nozzle control, and simple lines. Most students are amazed at what they can create by the end of the session. We provide a supportive, high-energy environment where 'mistakes' are just part of the creative process.🎨

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard university workshop in Basel typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This includes the introductory briefing, sketching time, and the actual painting session. We can also adapt the schedule to fit into a specific lecture gap or as a full-day 'drop-in' event for student festivals and welcome weeks. We are flexible to your timetable!⏱️

What materials are included in the session?

We cover everything! We provide all the spray cans in a wide variety of colours, protective overalls, gloves, and high-quality respiratory masks. Depending on the venue, we provide either large collective boards or individual canvases for students to take home. You just need to show up in clothes you don't mind getting a little dusty!🧤

Is the workshop safe for indoor use at the Uni?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide professional-grade FFP2 or FFP3 masks and nitrile gloves to all participants. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially ventilated indoor spaces. Our artists are trained in safety protocols and ensure that the spray cans are used responsibly throughout the entire Basel event.🛡️️

Can we create a specific theme or collective mural?

Of course! We can focus on a collaborative mural that represents your faculty's values, or keep it individual so everyone can take home their own piece of art. For student unions and societies, we often create a 'legacy wall' that stays on campus as a permanent piece of street art. Just let us know your preference!🖼️

What happens if it rains on the day?

In Basel, we take advantage of the city's legal graffiti zones or set up mobile walls on your campus grounds. If the weather doesn't play ball, we have indoor solutions using water-based, low-odour paints or secured indoor locations. We always have a backup plan ready so your event goes ahead regardless of the Swiss weather.☔

What are the costs for a university group?

Our pricing is flexible to accommodate student budgets. In Basel, prices generally range from CHF40 to CHF85 per person, depending on the group size and the specific materials requested. We offer special rates for university societies and large faculty groups. We don't require upfront payment; you can pay after the fun is done!💰

Local culture

Basel is a city that lives and breathes art, from the world-class Art Basel fair to the hidden gems along the Rhine. The city has a unique relationship with street art; you only have to walk through the Gerbergässlein to see how murals have become part of the city's soul. Our workshops tap into this local heritage, connecting students with the urban pulse of the city. We often host sessions near the creative hubs of Gundeldingen or right on campus at the University of Basel.

Fun Fact: Basel is home to some of the oldest legal graffiti spots in Switzerland, making it a pioneer in the European street art movement! 🇨🇭
