Where we host workshops in Adama
Our graffiti and street art workshops in Adama are designed to be flexible and can be arranged at various suitable locations around the city. We often work with venues in accessible areas, allowing groups to easily gather. Key districts like Adama Ganat or around the central market area offer convenient meeting points before heading to a dedicated workshop space. For groups seeking a slightly different atmosphere, locations closer to the shores of Lake Koka, a short drive from the city, can also be considered for a more tranquil setting, depending on venue availability and group requirements.
We prioritise safe and appropriate spaces for our artistic activities, ensuring a comfortable and inspiring environment for all participants. We do not use public walls for our workshops unless explicitly permitted and organised in advance with local authorities for specific community projects.

Travelling to your Adama workshop
Adama is well-connected and easily accessible. The city is a significant hub on the main road network in Ethiopia, notably situated along the A1 highway that connects Addis Ababa to eastern parts of the country. This makes road travel straightforward for groups arriving by private vehicle or bus. For those travelling from further afield, Bole International Airport in Addis Ababa is the closest major international airport. From there, Adama is a manageable drive, often served by comfortable intercity buses and private transport options.
Within Adama, public transport, primarily minibuses and bajajs, provides good coverage across the city. Workshop locations will be chosen with accessibility in mind, often near well-known landmarks or main roads to facilitate easy drop-off and pick-up for participants. We advise groups to coordinate their travel plans in advance to ensure a smooth arrival.
Local culture
Street art and creativity in Adama
Adama, while not traditionally known as a street art capital, possesses a growing urban landscape that is increasingly open to creative expression. Public art and murals are beginning to appear in various forms, often reflecting local culture, community messages, or decorative elements on commercial buildings. This evolving environment makes Adama an interesting place to engage with urban art, as participants can contribute to this developing artistic narrative rather than simply observing an established scene.
The city's dynamic atmosphere, driven by its vibrant markets and transport links, provides a backdrop where creativity is finding new outlets. Our workshops aim to foster this spirit, providing a platform for individuals and groups to experiment with street art techniques in a controlled and positive setting, adding to the city's artistic dialogue in a meaningful way.
Pricing
We believe in transparent pricing and high value. Our graffiti workshops in Adama typically range from Br1500 to Br3500 per person. This variation depends on the size of your group, the duration of the session, and any specific custom requirements (like painting on a permanent wall versus individual canvases).
To give you the best possible experience, we offer tailored packages. Request a custom quote today to get a personalized price for your group event!
Remember: With Graffitifun, there is no upfront payment required. You pay only after the workshop is successfully completed!
