Do I need any previous drawing or painting experience?
No artistic background is needed! Our Athens workshop is specifically designed for absolute beginners. Our professional graffiti artists will guide you through everything from how to hold the spray can to basic stroke techniques. Most of our participants haven't touched a spray can before, and they always leave with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of. Just bring your enthusiasm and we will handle the rest.
Is the workshop safe and what should I wear?
Safety is our top priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paints and conduct our sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas or legal graffiti walls. Our facilitators are experienced artists who ensure everyone follows safety protocols while having a blast creating their own masterpiece in the Greek sunshine.
How long does the graffiti workshop last?
A standard Athens onboarding workshop typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction to graffiti history, a safety briefing, technique practice, and the creation of your final artwork. We find this is the perfect duration to get a real feel for the medium without feeling rushed, allowing your creativity to flow naturally.
What materials are included in the workshop package?
Everything you need is included in the price. We provide premium spray cans in a wide variety of colours, caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective gear, and the surface you will be painting on. In Athens, we often use large canvases or mobile wooden walls, though for certain groups, we can arrange for painting on legal street walls. You don't need to bring anything but yourself!
How far in advance should I book my session?
Ideally, we recommend booking at least 2 to 4 weeks in advance, especially for weekend slots or larger groups. However, we have a large team of backup artists in Greece, so we can often accommodate last-minute requests. If you have a spontaneous urge to spray, get in touch and we will do our absolute best to make it happen for you!
What is the minimum and maximum group size?
We offer great flexibility for groups. Our onboarding workshops are perfect for small groups of friends (minimum 5-10 people) but can scale up to accommodate large corporate teams or school groups of over 100 people. For very large groups, we bring in extra professional artists to ensure every participant gets individual attention and guidance throughout the creative process.
How do I pay and do I need to pay upfront?
One of the best things about booking with Graffitifun is our 'pay after' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront payments or deposits. You can settle the payment once the workshop is completed and you are happy with the results. This reflects our 100% satisfaction focus and our commitment to making the booking process as stress-free as possible for you.
