Do I need any prior art experience to join the workshop?

Not at all! Our Lucerne workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional artist-instructors will guide you through everything from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. Whether you're a stick-figure doodler or a budding Picasso, we ensure everyone leaves with a sense of pride and a lot of new skills.

Is it safe to use spray paint?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and overalls, to keep your clothes clean and your lungs safe. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control and much safer for beginners. Our instructors also provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a fun, worry-free environment for creators of all ages in Switzerland.

Will I actually get to paint, or is it just a demonstration?

Yes! Unlike many street art tours, our workshop is hands-on. While we do discuss the history and culture of graffiti, the majority of your time (around 80%) is spent actually painting. You'll move from practicing basic lines on a practice wall to creating your own unique piece on a canvas or professional-grade surface. We believe the best way to learn the soul of street art is by doing it yourself!

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide full-body protective overalls, paint has a funny way of finding gaps! Sturdy sneakers are better than open-toed sandals for stability while you work. If it’s a sunny day in Lucerne, don't forget your sun cream, as we often host our public art sessions at vibrant outdoor locations.

How long does the workshop last?

A standard public art session in Lucerne usually lasts between 2 and 2.5 hours. This includes the introduction, safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of your artwork. For larger groups or corporate events, we can adjust the timing to fit your schedule. We find this duration is the 'sweet spot' where you have enough time to get creative without getting tired arms!

What is included in the price?

Everything is included! Your booking fee covers the location hire, professional artist guidance, all premium spray paint cans in a rainbow of colours, caps/nozzles, canvases, and full protective equipment. There are no hidden costs. We even provide some cool photos of your group in action so you can show off your skills on social media later. Just bring your enthusiasm and we handle the rest!

What happens if I need to cancel or change my booking?

We understand that plans can change. One of our biggest perks is that we don't require upfront payments for most bookings—you can pay after the workshop. Furthermore, we have a pool of backup artists ready to step in, so your event is never cancelled due to an instructor falling ill. We aim to be as flexible as possible to ensure your Lucerne art experience is stress-free.

Local culture

Lucerne might look like a fairytale town, but its urban art scene is surprisingly sophisticated. From the murals tucked away in the Neustadt district to the creative hubs near the Sedel, the city embraces a blend of traditional Swiss precision and edgy underground expression. Our workshops often take place in areas that showcase this contrast, giving you a taste of the 'real' Lucerne that many tourists miss.

Fun Fact: While Lucerne is known for the Lion Monument, local street artists often use 'The Blue Dog' as a recurring motif in hidden corners of the city—see if you can spot it after your workshop! 🦁✨
