Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Most of our participants in Abuja have never held a spray can before. Our onboarding workshop is specifically designed to take you from 'zero to hero.' We start with basic safety and handling techniques before moving on to lines, fades, and fills. Our professional artists will be right there with you, offering tips and ensuring you feel confident enough to create your own masterpiece by the end of the session.

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves and high-grade respiratory masks, to protect you from fumes and paint. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or specially prepared indoor areas. Our facilitators are trained to manage groups safely, ensuring a fun environment where everyone can express themselves without any health risks or mess on their personal clothes.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can be messy, and stray paint particles sometimes find their way onto shoes or sleeves. Think of it as your 'art outfit.' We provide everything else, including premium spray cans, various nozzles (caps), and the canvases or wall space for your creative work.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

Our standard onboarding sessions typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of your group or individual piece. We find this timeframe is perfect for keeping the energy high and the creativity flowing without anyone feeling rushed or overly tired by the end.

Where in Abuja do the workshops take place?

We are extremely flexible! We can host the workshop at one of our partner creative hubs in Abuja, or we can bring the entire setup to your office, garden, or event space. We use mobile plastic walls or large canvases to ensure we don't leave any permanent marks where they aren't wanted. Just let us know your preferred location, and we will handle the logistical setup.

What happens if the artist is unavailable?

One of our biggest strengths is our 'no cancellation' policy. We have a solid team of back-up artists in our network. If your assigned lead artist falls ill or has an emergency, we have a qualified professional ready to step in immediately. You can book your event with total peace of mind, knowing that your creative experience in the FCT will happen exactly as planned.
