Can we host the workshop on our Tokyo university campus?

Absolutely! We understand that university life is busy. Our Tokyo graffiti workshops are highly flexible. We can host sessions at your campus, a local park with legal walls, or a dedicated studio. Whether you want a daytime session between lectures or a weekend event for your student society, we work around your academic timetable to ensure everyone can participate.

Do we need any previous art experience to join?

No prior artistic skill is needed at all. Our professional artists are experts at teaching beginners. We start with the basics of nozzle control and line work before moving on to more complex techniques. You'll be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive. It is all about personal expression and having fun with your fellow students in a creative environment.

What safety measures are in place during the workshop?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and coveralls, to keep your clothes clean and your lungs safe. We use professional-grade spray paint and conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specialized studios. Each session starts with a comprehensive safety briefing to ensure everyone knows how to handle the equipment correctly.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Standard university workshops usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for learning the basics and completing a full-scale mural without feeling rushed. However, if you are planning a larger festival or a multi-day department event, we can customize the duration to fit your specific goals and the number of students participating.

Is the artwork we create permanent?

Yes, it is! We use specialized boards or temporary surfaces if you want to create a permanent installation for your student union or department office. Alternatively, many groups enjoy the 'transient' nature of street art by working on legal walls. We can discuss the best options for your group to ensure you have a physical memory of the event or a digital portfolio of your work.

What materials are included in the workshop price?

We provide everything you need. This includes a wide variety of spray paint colors, different nozzles (caps) for various effects, protective clothing, and the canvas or wall space. You just need to show up in comfortable shoes and bring your creative energy! We even have backup artists ready to go, so your event will never be cancelled due to any last-minute issues.

How does the pricing work for large university groups?

Our pricing is transparent and designed to be student-friendly. We offer a scale from ¥5000 to ¥12000 per person, which varies based on the total number of students and the level of customization you require. The best part? You don't have to pay anything upfront. We believe in our service so much that you only pay after the workshop is successfully completed.

Local culture

Tokyo is a city where tradition meets a futuristic underground scene. While Japan has strict rules, locations like the legal walls in Miyashita Park or the hidden gems in Koenji have turned the city into a global destination for street art enthusiasts. Our workshops tap into this unique "Tokyo Style"—a blend of sharp, technical precision and colorful, pop-culture-influenced aesthetics.

We celebrate the local culture by encouraging students to incorporate Japanese motifs or modern urban calligraphy into their work. By participating in a workshop here, you aren't just painting a wall; you're joining a sophisticated subculture that thrives in the narrow backstreets and creative districts of Harajuku and beyond. It’s a chance to see Tokyo through the eyes of the artists who color its landscape.

Pricing

Our university workshops are priced to be accessible while maintaining the highest quality of materials and instruction. Prices typically range from ¥5000 to ¥12000 per person.

The final cost depends on your group size, the location chosen, and the specific materials required for your project. We believe in total transparency, which is why we offer a no upfront payment policy—you only pay once the workshop is finished and your group is satisfied!
