Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely not. Our Napier workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can barely draw a stick figure to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists guide you through every single step, teaching you how to hold the can, control the pressure, and create clean lines. You will be amazed at what you can achieve in just a couple of hours with the right tips and tricks.

Is the workshop safe and what should I wear?

We take safety seriously so you can focus on the fun. We provide high quality gloves, masks with appropriate filters, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. Our spray paints are selected for their quality, and our instructors provide a full safety briefing at the start of every session to ensure everyone handles the equipment correctly and stays safe throughout the creative process.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Most of our Napier public art experiences run between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us plenty of time for a safety briefing, some practice runs on a test wall, and then the final creation of your masterpiece. If you have a specific time frame in mind for a festival or event, we can certainly tailor the duration to fit your schedule perfectly.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We are all about spreading the joy of street art, so we bring everything to you! We provide the high quality spray cans in a huge range of colours, caps for different line widths, protective gear, and the canvases or boards. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and perhaps a bottle of water. We handle all the setup and the cleanup afterwards.

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

Graffiti works best in the dry, but we always have a plan B. If the Hawke's Bay weather decides not to play ball, we can often move the workshop to a sheltered or indoor area using low odour paints, or we can reschedule to a better day. Since we have backup artists available, we are very flexible with timing to ensure your event goes ahead.

Can we book a workshop for a large group or school?

We love working with groups of all sizes! Whether you are a small group of friends, a school class, or a large scale corporate team-building event, we can accommodate you. For very large groups, we bring in additional artists to ensure everyone gets plenty of individual attention and hands on time with the spray cans. Just let us know your numbers for a quote.

How does the payment process work? Do I pay upfront?

We believe in a hassle free booking process for our Kiwi customers. You do not need to pay anything upfront when you book your Napier workshop. You can settle the payment after the workshop is completed and you are 100 percent satisfied with the experience. This ensures you can book with total confidence and focus entirely on the creative fun at hand.

Local culture

Napier is a city that breathes creativity, famously reborn in the 1931 earthquake with its stunning Art Deco architecture. Today, that creative spirit continues through the "Sea Walls: Taimana" project, which has filled the city with incredible large-scale murals. When you join our workshop, you are stepping into a local culture that truly values public art as a way to tell stories and protect our oceans. From the buzzing vibes of Ahuriri to the hidden gems in the CBD, Napier is a playground for visual storytellers. 🏙️

Fun Fact: Napier is home to some of the most concentrated collections of environmental street art in the Southern Hemisphere, with dozens of massive murals specifically designed to raise awareness about marine conservation!
