Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join the networking event?

Absolutely no art experience is needed! Our professional graffiti artists are there to guide you through every spray. We start with basic techniques before moving on to the collaborative mural. The focus is on networking and having fun in a relaxed environment, so don't worry about your skill level—it's all about the energy and the shared experience of creating something bold together in Lubumbashi.

What safety measures and gear are provided?

We take safety seriously. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We typically host these events in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. All our spray paints are professional-grade, and our instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can. You can focus on making connections while we handle the safety logistics.

How long does a typical graffiti networking session last?

A standard creative networking session in Lubumbashi lasts between 2 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for the initial 'ice-breaker' introductions, a crash course in graffiti techniques, the collaborative painting phase, and plenty of time for free-form networking while the paint dries. We can also customise the duration to fit into a larger corporate summit or half-day event schedule.

Can we take our artwork home after the event?

Yes! One of the best parts of our networking events is the physical result. While the large-scale murals usually stay at the venue or with the host, we often incorporate individual canvases or 'take-home' boards. This ensures every professional leaves with a unique piece of street art they helped create, serving as a lasting reminder of the connections made during the Lubumbashi event.

Where in Lubumbashi do these events usually take place?

We are incredibly flexible. We can host the workshop at your office car park, a rented urban warehouse, or one of our partner creative spaces in Lubumbashi. If you don't have a venue, let us know! We have experience scouting the best spots that offer the right 'street' vibe while ensuring your guests are comfortable and have access to necessary amenities.

What's the ideal group size for a creative networking event?

We generally recommend a minimum of 10 participants to get the right networking energy, but we can accommodate groups of up to 100+ people. For very large groups, we bring in additional backup artists to ensure everyone gets hands-on time with the spray cans and quality interaction. Whether it's a small boutique firm or a large regional conference, we scale the experience perfectly.

What is your cancellation and payment policy?

We understand that plans can change. One of our brand pillars is reliability; we have backup artists ready to step in so your event is never cancelled from our side. Regarding your booking, we offer flexible terms—you don't even need to pay upfront! You can settle the invoice after the workshop once you’re 100% satisfied with the experience and the connections your team has made.
