Why choose us in Chiang Mai?

Why choose a Graffitifun workshop in the heart of the North? Because we turn "I can't draw" into "Look what I made!" 🚀

  • Pro-artist mentors: Learn from the best active street artists in the local scene.
  • Zero stress booking: No upfront payment required; we trust you to have a blast.
  • Total equipment kit: We provide top-tier cans and all the safety gear you need.

  • Eco-conscious: We use high-quality paint and ensure we leave our spots cleaner than we found them.

How it works

  1. Warm welcome and intro: Meet your local pro artist at the spot. We’ll start with a quick chat about the roots of graffiti and safe can handling.
  2. Cap and spray basics: Learn about different nozzles (caps) and how they change your lines. You'll practice making dots, thin lines, and fat flares.
  3. The art of the tag: Every artist needs a signature. We'll help you develop your own 'tag' or nickname and practice the flow of the letters.
  4. Sketching your concept: Pick your colors and sketch out a rough idea of what you want to create on your canvas or wall space.
  5. Filling and fading: This is where the magic happens! Learn how to fill in large areas smoothly and how to blend colors for that iconic 3D effect.
  6. Outlining and highlights: Bring your piece to life by adding sharp outlines and 'shine' highlights that make the art pop off the surface.
  7. Final touches and photos: Your instructor will help you clean up any drips. Once it's perfect, we’ll take some epic photos of you with your work.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any prior art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from people who can't draw a straight line to seasoned hobbyists. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics of spray can control, lettering, and shading. You'll be amazed at how quickly you pick up the techniques. The focus in Chiang Mai is all about having fun and expressing your internal rhythm through color.

What should I bring to the workshop?

We provide everything you need to create a masterpiece. This includes high-quality spray cans in a rainbow of colors, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvas or wall space for your session. Just bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty while you work your magic!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks and gloves for all participants. Our paint is professional-grade but used in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. Our instructors are experienced artists who will brief you on all safety protocols before we pop the first cap. It is a completely safe environment for kids, teens, and adults alike.

Can I book a private session for my friends?

Yes, we love hosting private groups! Whether it is a birthday bash, a family reunion, or just a group of friends looking for something unique to do in Chiang Mai, we can tailor the session to you. For larger groups, we even offer special rates. It’s a fantastic way to bond and create shared memories while making something visually stunning together.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

A standard onboarding workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, plenty of practice time, and the final creation of your main piece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where you stay energized and inspired without getting too tired from standing.

What is your cancellation policy?

We understand that plans can change. One of the best things about Graffitifun is that we don't require upfront payments for most bookings—you pay after the workshop! If you need to cancel or reschedule your Chiang Mai session, just let us know as soon as possible so we can adjust our artist's schedule. We strive to be as flexible as possible for our guests.
