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

You definitely don't need to be the next Banksy to have a blast! Our Wellington workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional artist mentors will guide you through every step, from holding the can correctly to mastering basic flares and outlines. We focus on the fun and the process of creation rather than technical perfection. You'll be surprised at what you can achieve in just a few hours with the right guidance! 🎨

Is it safe, and what protective gear is provided?

Safety is our top priority in the Windy City. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable ponchos to keep your clothes clean. We use low-odour, professional-grade spray paint in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring everyone knows how to handle the equipment responsibly while having a total epic time. ✨

How long does a typical street art session last?

Most of our Wellington graffiti experiences run between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, some practice runs on the 'training wall,' and then the main event where you create your masterpiece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where you get fully immersed in the creative flow without getting too tired. If you're looking for something longer for a festival, just let us know! ⏱️

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

Comfort is key! We recommend wearing clothes you wouldn't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on, just in case—though we do provide protective gear. Flat, closed-toe shoes are a must for safety and stability while you're working. Since Wellington weather can be 'four seasons in one day,' bringing a light jacket or hoodie is always a smart move. Feel free to bring your phone for photos! 👟

Can I take my artwork home with me afterwards?

Absolutely! While we love working on large-scale mural walls, we often facilitate workshops where participants create their own individual canvases or boards. This is a huge hit because it means you get to take a piece of the Wellington street art scene home with you to hang on your wall. It’s the ultimate DIY souvenir from your creative adventure in the capital! 🖼️

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

We've got you covered! In Wellington, we always have 'Plan B' options. If the weather is really packing a sad, we can move the session to a sheltered or indoor location that still allows for safe spray painting. We also have a team of backup artists ready to roll, so your event happens rain or shine. You can book with total confidence knowing we won't let a bit of drizzle ruin the fun. 🌧️

How does the booking and payment process work?

Booking is super easy and flexible. We don't require any upfront payment to secure your date! Once we've chatted about your group size and goals, we'll lock it in. You only pay after the workshop is complete and you're 100% stoked with the experience. This keeps things stress-free for you, which is exactly how a creative session should be.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your next Wellington outing? It’s more than just painting on a wall; it’s about breaking barriers and trying something totally out of the box. Here’s why it’s a winner:

Unleash Raw Creativity: Leave the "perfection" of the office or classroom behind and embrace the bold, messy, and beautiful world of spray paint. 🚀
Epic Team Bonding: Nothing brings a group together like collaborating on a massive mural or cheering each other on as you master a new skill.
Professional Mentorship: You’re not just handed a can; you’re guided by Wellington's finest street artists who share their secrets and stories. 🎤
Stress Melt-Away: There is something incredibly therapeutic about the 'hiss' of the can and the flow of the paint. It's the ultimate digital detox.
Zero Risk, High Reward: With our "no pay till you're happy" policy and backup artists, your event is guaranteed to be a success. 🔥

Step by step

The Crew Meet-up: We gather at our designated Wellington street art spot for quick introductions and a run-through of the day's creative goals.
Safety & Style Briefing: Your lead artist explains how to use the equipment safely and demonstrates the basic 'can control' techniques used by pros.
The Sketching Phase: Before hitting the wall, you'll brainstorm your design ideas on paper, refining your concept with help from our mentors.
Mastering the 'Can': You'll head to a practice area to get a feel for pressure, distance, and nozzle types—it's harder than it looks but heaps of fun to learn!
Outline & Fill: This is where the magic happens. You'll start laying down the foundation of your piece, moving from broad fills to more detailed shapes.
The Detail Work: Add those sharp outlines, highlights, and 3D effects that make graffiti pop off the wall. Our artists are right there to help with the tricky bits.
The Final Reveal: We'll step back to admire the collective work, snap some epic photos for the 'gram, and celebrate the new art you've brought to the city.

Local culture

Wellington isn't just the capital of NZ; it’s the undisputed capital of cool. From the hidden gems in Hannahs Laneway to the massive murals overlooking Cuba Street, street art is woven into the very fabric of Pōneke. Our workshops tap into this local energy, often held in spaces that reflect the city's gritty yet sophisticated aesthetic. We celebrate the "Windy City" spirit by embracing bold colours and experimental styles that stand out even on the greyest Wellington day.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Wellington's Shark Wall in Lyall Bay became one of the most photographed pieces of public art in the country? The city's love for street art is so deep it's even part of the official city planning! 🦈

By joining a workshop here, you're not just painting; you're joining a community that values self-expression and the transformation of public spaces into open-air galleries. Whether you're in Te Aro or venturing out to the suburbs, the street art soul of Wellington is everywhere. ✨
