Frequently asked questions

What exactly is an anti-vandalism graffiti workshop?

An anti-vandalism workshop in Plovdiv is a hands-on experience designed to teach the difference between illegal tagging and artistic muralism. While traditional workshops focus purely on art, these sessions emphasize respect for public space and heritage. Participants learn professional techniques while discussing the social impact of their work, helping to foster a culture of legal, high-quality street art in the community. It's a fun way to learn responsibility through creativity!

Does this workshop encourage illegal activity?

Absolutely not! While we use professional spray cans, our instructors focus on teaching 'legal' street art. We provide designated canvases or legal wall spaces for everyone to practice on. Our goal is to show you that there is a massive difference between damaging property and creating art. By providing a controlled environment, we satisfy the urge to create without any of the negative legal consequences.

What materials are included in the session?

We take care of everything for you. In Plovdiv, we provide high-quality low-pressure spray cans (which are easier for beginners to control), protective overalls, gloves, and professional FFP3 masks to ensure you don't breathe in any fumes. We also provide the surfaces to paint on, whether that's large canvases or a pre-arranged legal wall. Just bring your enthusiasm and some clothes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on!

Do I need to have any artistic skills to participate?

No prior talent is needed at all! Many of our participants have never held a spray can before in their lives. Our professional Plovdiv-based artists are experts at breaking down complex mural techniques into simple, manageable steps. You will be amazed at how much you can achieve in just a couple of hours. We guide you through everything from basic lines to 3D effects and highlights.

How long does a typical workshop last?

Usually, our Plovdiv workshops last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction to graffiti culture and ethics, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on practice. If you are a larger group or have a specific project in mind, we can extend the duration to fit your needs. It’s a fast-paced, high-energy session that never feels long enough!

Is it safe to use spray paint indoors or outdoors?

Safety is our number one priority. We only use professional-grade safety equipment, including high-quality masks and gloves. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially set-up indoor spaces. Our artists are also trained in safety protocols to ensure that everyone handles the cans correctly. Because we are a professional organisation, we also have backup artists ready to go, ensuring your event never gets cancelled at the last minute.

Where in Plovdiv do the workshops take place?

We are very flexible! We can host workshops at various legal street art spots around Plovdiv, or we can bring the entire setup to your location. If you have a school yard, a parking lot, or a large indoor hall, we can set up mobile graffiti walls and protective flooring. We make it easy for you to enjoy the street art experience wherever you are in the city.
