Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be artistic to join a workshop?

Absolutely! Our Rotterdam workshops are designed for everyone, from absolute beginners to those with a creative streak. Our professional artists guide you through every stage, from holding the can correctly to mastering layering techniques. You don't need any prior drawing skills—just bring your enthusiasm and a willingness to try something new. You'll be amazed at the masterpiece you can create with a little expert guidance.

What materials are included in the experience?

We provide everything you need for the perfect street art session. This includes high-quality spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. Depending on the package, we also provide the canvases or boards you'll be painting on. Just make sure to wear comfortable shoes and clothes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on!

Where in Rotterdam do the workshops take place?

We are flexible! We can host workshops at various cool outdoor legal graffiti spots around Rotterdam, like the famous Hall of Fame. Alternatively, if you have a private venue or office space with adequate ventilation or an outdoor area, we can bring the workshop to you. We'll handle the setup and the cleanup, ensuring the focus remains entirely on the creative fun.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our primary concern. We provide high-quality FFP2 masks and gloves for all participants. Our workshops usually take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas to ensure everyone breathes easy. Our instructors are experienced pros who teach you how to handle the equipment safely, making sure the environment is controlled, professional, and—most importantly—totally stress-free for your group.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard workshop typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on time for you to complete your own artwork. If you have a specific schedule for a cultural festival or corporate event, we can easily adapt the timing to fit your day's itinerary.

What happens if it rains on the day?

Rotterdam weather can be unpredictable, but we've got you covered. In the event of heavy rain, we can often move to a sheltered outdoor location or use one of our indoor-friendly techniques like street art on canvas using specialized pens and low-odour cans. We also have backup artists available to ensure your event goes ahead no matter what, giving you total peace of mind.

How do I book and when do I pay?

Booking is simple and risk-free. You don't need to pay anything upfront. Just tell us your group size and preferred date, and we'll send you a custom quote. Once you're happy, we'll lock in the date. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. It's all about making the process as smooth as possible for you.
