Do we need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our Melbourne university workshops are designed for everyone, from complete beginners to seasoned doodlers. Our pro artists guide you through basic spray can control, safety, and letter structure before you ever touch a wall. You'll be amazed at how quickly you can create a professional-looking piece of art with just a few tips and tricks from our crew. It's all about having a crack and enjoying the process.

Is the workshop safe and what gear do you provide?

We take safety seriously so you can focus on the fun. Every participant is provided with high-quality FFP3 respirators, protective gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We conduct our sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated street art zones. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a full safety briefing before the caps are popped, ensuring a secure environment for all students and faculty involved.

How long does a typical university workshop last?

Most uni workshops in Melbourne run for about 2 to 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of the scene, a demo on techniques, individual practice, and the creation of a final masterpiece. If you've got a tighter schedule for an O-Week event or a longer format for a design faculty workshop, we can easily customise the duration to fit your program perfectly.

Can you host the workshop on our university campus?

Flexibility is our middle name! We can host the workshop at one of Melbourne's legendary legal street art spots, or we can bring the experience directly to your campus. We use mobile "graffiti walls" (heavy-duty plastic wrap or wooden panels) that allow us to set up in courtyards or parking lots without leaving a permanent mark. It’s a great way to transform a campus space for a day.

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

Melbourne weather can be a bit of a mixed bag! If it looks like rain, we usually try to move to a sheltered outdoor area on campus. If that’s not an option, we can reschedule the event for a clearer day. Because we have a large team of backup artists available, we are very flexible with timing to ensure your event goes ahead without a hitch when the sun decides to shine.

What is the maximum group size for a uni event?

For university groups, we find that 15 to 30 people per artist works best to ensure everyone gets a go and receives some personal coaching. However, we can cater to massive groups of 100+ by bringing in multiple artists and setting up several spray stations. Whether it’s a small club social or a massive faculty-wide orientation event, we’ve got the scale and the spray cans to handle it.

Step by step

Select your vibe: Chat with our team to decide if you want a campus-based pop-up or a trip to a famous Melbourne laneway.
Design the concept: Choose a theme for your mural, perhaps your uni’s mascot, a student union slogan, or just a wild freestyle session.
Safety first: Suit up in our provided overalls, gloves, and high-grade masks while our pros give you the run-down on can control.
Master the basics: Start with 'ghosting' and lines on practice boards to get a feel for pressure and distance.
Outline the vision: Our lead artist helps the group sketch the main design onto the wall or canvas.
Fill and flow: Grab your cans and start layering colours! This is where the mural really starts to pop and take shape.
Add the details: Use skinny caps for outlines, highlights, and your own personal tags to finish the piece off.
Group photo op: Stand back and admire the massive collective artwork you’ve created—perfect for the uni’s social media feed!
Final cleanup: We take care of all the gear and mess, leaving you with nothing but great memories and epic photos.

Local culture

Melbourne is world-famous for its laneway culture, and our workshops tap directly into that iconic "Melbourne Vibe." From the legendary murals of Collingwood to the hidden gems in Fitzroy, street art is the heartbeat of this city. We bring that authentic urban edge to your university, teaching the history and respect that makes the local scene so special.

Fun Fact: Did you know Melbourne was one of the first cities in the world to embrace "stencil art" on a massive scale? It's often called the "stencil capital of the world," and you'll get to see why when we show you how these techniques are used in modern street art! 🏆

Pricing

Value-packed workshops for every budget

Our university workshops in Melbourne are priced between A$40 and A$90 per person.

The final investment depends on your group size, the duration of the session, and whether we're using canvases or building a temporary wall on campus. We’re all about transparency and making sure you get the best value for your student union or faculty budget.
