Step by step

  1. The Gear Up: We start by getting you suited and booted in protective gear—masks, gloves, and ponchos are all provided.
  2. Can Basics: Your pro artist shows you how to hold the can, control the pressure, and swap 'caps' for different line widths.
  3. First Lines: You'll head to the wall to practice basic shapes, dots, and lines to get a feel for the spray.
  4. Sketching the Vision: Use light 'ghost' lines to map out your design or tag onto the surface.
  5. The Fill-In: Learn the technique of 'filling' your letters with vibrant colours without causing drips.
  6. Outlining & Shadows: This is where the magic happens! Add sharp outlines and 3D shadows to make your work pop.
  7. Detailing & Highlights: Use 'skinny caps' to add those final flares, sparkles, and fine details that define your style.
  8. The Big Reveal: Step back, admire your handiwork, and grab some photos of your Newcastle masterpiece!

Local culture

Street art in Newcastle

Newcastle has a gritty, industrial heart that has evolved into a powerhouse of modern culture. From the street art tucked away in Ouseburn to the iconic murals near the Quayside, the city's walls tell a story of resilience and creativity. Our workshops celebrate this local heritage, often drawing inspiration from the iconic Tyne Bridge and the city's legendary nightlife. Newcastle is a place where "canny" ideas turn into world-class art, and we love bringing that Geordie spark to every session.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Newcastle is home to some of the UK's most famous "legal walls" in the Ouseburn Valley? It's a place where the local council and artists collaborate to keep the city looking incredible with ever-changing urban masterpieces! 🏆

Pricing

Our Newcastle graffiti experiences are priced to be accessible and fun. Generally, prices range from £25 to £55 per person. This depends on factors like your group size, the duration of the workshop, and the specific location we use in the city.

The best part? No upfront payment is required! We believe in the quality of our experience, so you only pay after you've finished your workshop. Whether you are planning a small get-together or a massive city-wide event, we can scale to fit your budget. ✨
