Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our Lae workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics, starting with simple lines and shapes before moving on to more complex techniques. Most of our participants have never held a spray can before, and they are always amazed by what they can create by the end of the session!

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially prepared indoor spaces. Our instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing at the start of every session to ensure everyone has a fun and injury-free experience.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, spray paint can sometimes find its way onto shoes or sleeves. It's best to leave your Sunday best at home and opt for something practical so you can focus entirely on your masterpiece!

How long does a session usually last?

A standard public art workshop in Lae typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of a large-scale group mural. If you have specific time constraints for a corporate event or festival, we can often adjust the duration to suit your schedule.

Do I need to pay in advance?

We believe in the quality of our workshops, which is why we don't require upfront payments for most bookings. You can secure your date and then pay after the workshop is completed. This gives you peace of mind and ensures that we are fully committed to delivering a 100% fun and satisfactory experience for your group in Lae.

What happens if the artist is sick?

In the rare event that your assigned lead artist is unwell, we have a reliable backup system in place. We work with a wide network of professional artists across Papua New Guinea, meaning we can almost always send a replacement artist to ensure your event goes ahead as planned. You can book with confidence knowing we have a 'no-cancellation' policy.

Are the materials included in the price?

We provide everything you need! This includes a wide variety of spray paint colours, caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective gear, and the 'canvas' (which could be a temporary wall, boards, or even a legal public space). You just need to bring your energy and creativity—we handle all the logistics and clean-up afterwards.

Step by step

Arrival and intro: Meet your pro artist at the designated Lae location and get a quick intro to the vibrant world of street art culture.
Safety first: Get geared up with masks, gloves, and overalls. Your instructor will walk you through the essential do's and don'ts of spray painting.
Technique demo: Watch a live demo of 'can control'—learn how to handle the pressure, swap caps, and create different line widths.

The outline: Sharpen your piece by adding a crisp outline. This is where your artwork really starts to 'pop' and look professional.

Local culture

Known as the 'Garden City', Lae has a rugged, industrial charm that provides the perfect backdrop for urban creativity. From the bustling activity around the Lae Main Market to the scenic views along the Huon Gulf, the city is a melting pot of culture and energy. While street art is still a growing scene here, the local spirit of community and storytelling makes it the ideal place for public art projects. We love bringing our workshops to the heart of Morobe, helping locals and visitors alike express themselves on a grand scale.

Fun fact: Lae was a major hub during WWII, and you can still find historical remnants tucked away in the greenery—offering plenty of gritty, industrial inspiration for your graffiti designs! 🏆
