Frequently asked questions

Do I need any prior artistic experience to join?

Absolutely no prior experience is needed! Our workshops in Geneva are designed for everyone from total beginners to those who have dabbled in art before. Our friendly professional artists will guide you through the basics of can control, lines, and shading. Most of our guests are surprised by just how quickly they pick up the technique and create something they are truly proud of. It is all about the fun of the process!

What is included in the workshop package?

We provide everything you need to get creative! This includes a wide range of professional spray cans in various colours, protective clothing (overalls, gloves, and masks), and the surfaces we will be painting on. For cultural events, we often use large high-quality canvases or mobile walls. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and perhaps some clothes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on. We have got the rest covered!

How long does a typical session last?

A standard cultural graffiti session in Geneva typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for an introduction to street art history, a safety briefing, a practice round to get used to the spray cans, and then the main event—creating your masterpiece. We can also tailor the duration to fit into a larger event schedule if you are hosting a multi-activity festival or cultural day.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Your safety is our priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't breathing in fumes, along with nitrile gloves and protective suits. Our workshops usually take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially ventilated indoor spaces. Our instructors are experienced professionals who ensure that everyone handles the equipment safely while following all Swiss safety regulations for public events and gatherings.

What happens if it rains on the day?

Rain won't stop the creativity! Geneva’s weather can be unpredictable, so we always have a Plan B. We can either move the workshop to a covered outdoor area or use an indoor space with proper ventilation. If the weather looks particularly tricky, we will coordinate with you at least 24 hours in advance to ensure the workshop goes ahead smoothly. We have backup artists available too, so we never cancel on you!

Can children participate in the cultural workshops?

Definitely! Graffiti is a fantastic way for families to bond and for kids to express themselves. We offer specialized workshops for kids and schools, though our cultural events are generally "open-age" where children (usually 6+) and adults can work together. For younger children, we focus more on simple shapes and vibrant colours. It is a brilliant way to introduce the next generation to Geneva's thriving urban art scene.

How do I book a session and when do I pay?

Booking is as simple as it gets! Use our online Cost Calculator to get an instant estimate, then fill out our contact form with your preferred date and group size in Geneva. We will get back to you quickly with a formal quote. The best part? There is no upfront payment required. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. It is totally risk-free!
