Where we host graffiti workshops in Melbourne
Our workshops in Melbourne can be arranged in various locations, often utilising accessible creative spaces or venues within reach of key urban areas. Districts like Fitzroy, Collingwood, and Brunswick are known for their artistic communities and creative energy, making them natural fits for street art activities. These inner-city suburbs offer a blend of history and contemporary culture, providing an inspiring environment.
For groups travelling from further afield, areas closer to the central business district, or locations easily reached by public transport, can also be facilitated. We aim to find a venue that suits your group's needs and provides a conducive space for creative expression, whether you are based in the inner north or coming from broader Melbourne regions.

Reaching your Melbourne workshop
Melbourne is well-served by an extensive public transport network. For groups arriving by train, Flinders Street Station is a major hub in the city centre, with connections to numerous tram and bus routes that can take you to various workshop locations. Southern Cross Station also provides significant regional and interstate rail links.
If travelling by car or coach, Melbourne is accessible via major arterial roads like the Monash Freeway (M1) and the West Gate Freeway. Parking availability can vary significantly depending on the specific workshop venue, particularly in central and inner-city areas, so advance planning for coaches and multiple vehicles is advisable. Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine) is the primary gateway for those flying into the city, with SkyBus and taxi services connecting to the city centre.
Local culture
Melbourne's genuine street art vibe
Melbourne's street art scene is internationally recognised, not necessarily for being 'famous' in a commercial sense, but for its genuine depth, evolution, and community acceptance. Laneways such as Hosier Lane, AC/DC Lane, and Croft Alley are dynamic canvases, constantly changing with new works. These areas are not just tourist attractions but living galleries that reflect the city's artistic pulse. The city council has a nuanced approach, supporting designated legal walls and fostering creative expression within certain boundaries.
Beyond the well-known laneways, you will find impressive murals and public art installations across various suburbs, particularly in the inner north. This environment of ongoing creative output makes Melbourne a particularly pertinent place to engage with street art firsthand. Our workshops aim to connect participants with this authentic artistic spirit, providing insights into the techniques and culture that define Melbourne's urban art landscape.
Pricing
Our workshop prices are as flexible as our art style! Depending on your group size, location, and specific requirements, prices generally range between:
A$40 – A$90 per person
Because every event is unique—from kids' parties to full-scale brand activations—we recommend getting in touch for a tailored deal. We don't require any payment upfront, so there's zero risk to you!
