Do I need any previous art experience to join?

No prior artistic experience is needed to enjoy our graffiti workshop in Bern. Our professional artists are experts at guiding absolute beginners through the process, from basic spray can handling to advanced shading techniques. We break everything down into manageable steps, ensuring that everyone walks away with a piece of art they are proud of, regardless of their starting skill level.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need for a complete street art experience. This includes professional-grade spray paint in a wide variety of colours, high-quality caps for different line widths, protective overalls, gloves, and high-standard masks. We also provide the canvas or wall space for your creation. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of dust on.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 respirator masks to protect against fumes, along with protective gloves and suits. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated legal graffiti zones in Bern. Our instructors are professional artists who provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring a fun and risk-free environment for all participants.

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

The weather in Bern can be unpredictable, but we have you covered. If the forecast looks poor, we can often relocate to a sheltered outdoor area or use our backup indoor facilities where we work on large canvases. If the weather makes it impossible to hold the session safely or comfortably, we offer flexible rescheduling options. We always have backup artists ready to ensure your event goes ahead smoothly.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard public art workshop in Bern typically lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This allows enough time for a short history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the completion of a final masterpiece. We can adjust the duration based on your group's specific needs or the complexity of the project you want to undertake.

Can I book a private workshop for a small group?

Absolutely! We love hosting private groups. Whether it is a birthday, a creative get-together with friends, or a unique family outing, we can tailor the session specifically for your party. We offer flexible scheduling and can even suggest some great local spots in Bern to grab a drink or a bite to eat after you have finished your spray painting session.

How do I book and when do I pay?

Booking is simple and stress-free. You can reach out via our website to request a quote. Once we have agreed on a date, time, and group size, your booking is confirmed. The best part is that you don't need to pay anything upfront. We operate on a 'pay after the workshop' basis, ensuring you are 100% satisfied with the experience before any payment is processed.

Local culture

Bern might be famous for its UNESCO-recognised Old Town and the Zytglogge, but beneath the surface of the sandstone buildings lies a thriving, edgy street art scene. From the vibrant murals in the Reitschule area to the evolving legal walls scattered around the city's outskirts, Bern embraces urban creativity in a way few European capitals do. When you join our workshop, you are not just learning a skill; you are tapping into the local 'Berner' spirit of independence and artistic expression. We often hold our sessions in locations that reflect this juxtaposition of the old and the new, giving you a truly authentic taste of the Swiss urban underground. Between sessions, you might explore the nearby Lorraine district, known for its alternative vibe and hidden artistic gems.

Pricing

Our graffiti experiences in Bern are competitively priced to ensure everyone can join the fun. Prices typically range from CHF40 to CHF85 per person. The final cost depends on the size of your group, the duration of the session, and the specific location setup.

The best part? We don't require any upfront payment. You only pay after the workshop is finished, ensuring you are completely happy with the experience. For larger groups, schools, or special events, we offer tailored packages to suit your budget.
