Do we need any previous art experience?

Absolutely! Most university students who join us have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists break down the process into easy-to-follow steps, from basic spray techniques to advanced shading. We focus on 'controlled' graffiti, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and confident. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It's all about experimenting and having a great time with your fellow students in Mechelen!

Is it safe and do we get protective clothing?

We take safety seriously. We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and specialised masks to ensure no one gets paint on their clothes or inhales fumes. The workshop usually takes place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated street art zones. Our artists are also trained in safety protocols to make sure the environment remains fun and hazard-free for every student participant. You just bring the energy; we provide the protection!

How long does a typical workshop last?

Our standard university workshops in Mechelen typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of a final large-scale piece. If you have a specific schedule or a shorter window between lectures, let us know! We can often tailor the duration to fit your event's timeline while ensuring you still get the full creative experience.

Does our student association need to pay upfront?

We understand that university budgets and planning can be tricky. That’s why we don't require any upfront payment to secure your booking. You only pay after the workshop has successfully taken place and everyone has had a blast. This policy ensures you can book with total peace of mind, knowing that we are committed to delivering a top-tier experience before a single Euro leaves your pocket.

Can you host the workshop on our university campus?

Yes, we can! While we have several 'legal' graffiti spots we use around Mechelen, we are also mobile. If your university campus has a suitable outdoor area and you have the necessary permissions, we can bring the entire setup to you. We'll handle the protective floor coverings and sets. It’s a fantastic way to bring some vibrant energy and colour directly to your student union or campus grounds!

What happens if it rains on the day?

Weather is part of the adventure! If light rain is forecast, we can often work under shelters or gazebos. However, if the weather looks truly unworkable, we have backup plans. Either we move to an indoor-friendly alternative (like small canvases with low-odour pens) or we reschedule. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we are very flexible with timing to ensure your event doesn't get rained out!

What happens to the artwork once we're finished?

The final product is up to you! For university groups, we often create a massive collaborative mural on a temporary wall or a series of large canvases. These canvases are yours to keep. They look incredible hanging in a student common room, the student union bar, or even as a rotating gallery in your faculty hallway. It serves as a permanent reminder of a great day of teamwork and creativity.

Local culture

Mechelen might be famous for its historic St. Rumbold's Tower, but look closer and you'll see a city that's embracing its modern, creative side. The street art scene here is growing fast, with vibrant murals popping up near the Dijle path and around the city's creative quarters. It’s a city that values both tradition and the new 'Maneblussers' spirit of innovation.

Fun Fact: Did you know Mechelen has its very own 'Mechelen Muurt' project? It has transformed boring city walls into a massive open-air gallery, featuring world-class street artists. It’s this exact energy we bring to our university workshops! 🏰✨
