Why choose us in Kumasi?

Why settle for just listening to music when you can be part of the visual landscape of the festival? Bringing a graffiti workshop to your Kumasi event adds a layer of interactive fun that stays with people long after the final encore. Here is why it's a must-have:

  • Unmatched vibe: It turns passive listeners into active creators, boosting the overall energy of the venue. 🔥
  • Epic photo ops: Nothing looks better on Instagram than a giant, colourful mural being created in real-time.
  • Stress-free for organisers: With our backup artist policy and professional setup, we handle everything from A to Z.
  • All-inclusive fun: Whether you're 8 or 80, the thrill of a spray can is universal. 🎤
  • No financial risk: No upfront payment means you can book with total peace of mind.
  • Sustainable art: We use eco-friendly practices to ensure the only thing we leave behind is great memories (and maybe a cool wall).

How it works

  1. Consult and design: We chat about your festival's vibe and theme to create a tailored graffiti plan.
  2. Site setup: Our team arrives early to set up protected zones, canvases, and professional spray stations.
  3. Live demonstration: Our master artists kick things off with a high-energy demo to draw in the crowd.
  4. Safety first: Every participant gets kitted out in protective gear and receives a quick briefing on can control.
  5. Sketching the vibe: You start by sketching your ideas onto the canvas or wall with guidance from our pros.
  6. Filling and fading: Learn the secrets of professional techniques like fades, drips, and 3D effects.
  7. Final outlines: Add the finishing touches and sharp outlines that make your street art pop.
  8. The big reveal: Step back and admire your work! We can even help you arrange a gallery walk-through for other fans.
  9. Tidy up: We pack everything away, leaving your festival grounds exactly as we found them—minus the boring grey walls!

Frequently asked questions

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

No artist skills? No problem! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a stick figure to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists guide you through every step, starting with basic can control and moving into lettering and shading. We provide templates and 'cheat sheets' so that every festival attendee walks away with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of. It’s all about the experience and having a blast!

Is it safe and what about my clothes?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your festival outfit clean. We use low-odour, professional-grade spray paints and conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone picks up a can, ensuring a fun, secure environment for creators of all ages. We want you to enjoy the music and the art without any worries.

How long does the graffiti experience take?

A typical festival session lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours, but we can adapt the timing to fit the festival's schedule. Some people like to drop in for a quick 20-minute 'tagging' session, while others want to spend the full two hours creating a complex canvas piece. We offer flexible formats that allow for high turnover and maximum engagement, ensuring as many festival-goers as possible get to experience the thrill of graffiti.

What kind of paint do you use and is it eco-friendly?

We believe in the power of 'clean and green'. We use high-quality spray paints that are better for the environment and provide adequate ventilation. Our setup is designed to be completely self-contained, meaning we leave no mess behind on the festival grounds. We handle all the setup, pack-down, and waste disposal, so the festival organisers have one less thing to worry about. It’s a professional service from start to finish.

Can we create a collaborative mural for the whole festival?

Absolutely! One of the coolest parts of our Kumasi music festival package is the ability to create a giant collaborative mural. We set up large-scale walls where attendees can contribute their own sections under the guidance of our lead artist. By the end of the festival, you have a massive, vibrant masterpiece that represents the collective spirit of the event. It’s a fantastic way to build community and create a lasting memory.

Do you provide workshops in other Ghanaian cities?

Yes, we are fully mobile! While Kumasi is our focus for this service, we frequently travel to Accra, Tamale, Takoradi, and Cape Coast. We bring all the necessary equipment, boards, paints, and safety gear to your location. As long as there is a flat surface and some fresh air, we can turn any corner of your music festival into a thriving street art hub. Just let us know your location when booking.

How much does it cost to book a workshop for a festival?

Pricing is tailored to your specific needs, the number of participants, and the duration of the festival. Because every event is unique—ranging from small boutique gatherings to massive stadium festivals—we provide custom quotes. The best part? There is no upfront payment required. You only pay after the workshop is complete and everyone is happy. Contact us for an instant cost estimate using our online tool or via email.
