Why choose a graffiti workshop for your next Durban onboarding? Because it’s the fastest way to break the ice and get people talking! Here’s why we’re the best choice for your team:

  • Epic team bonding: Nothing says "welcome to the team" like creating a giant piece of art together. 🔥
  • Total creative freedom: We help your crew step outside their comfort zone in a safe, judgment-free zone.
  • Professional local artists: Learn from the best in the Durban scene—real artists with years of street experience. 🎤

How it works

  1. Warm welcome and intro: Meet your pro graffiti artist and get a quick rundown of the gear. We’ll chat about the plan for the day and get everyone hyped up!
  2. Safety first: We suit up in our protective gear. Learn the right way to handle the cans and use the masks for a totally safe, worry-free session.
  3. Master the basics: Start with the "line" – learn how distance and pressure change your spray. It’s harder than it looks but super satisfying!
  4. Technique training: Our artists show you how to do fills, fades, and sharp outlines. This is where your Durban street style starts to take shape.
  5. Sketching your concept: Whether it’s a name, a logo, or an abstract vibe, we’ll help you sketch your vision onto the canvas before the paint flies.
  6. The main event: It’s time to spray! You’ll work on your individual piece or contribute to a massive collaborative mural for the whole team.
  7. Finishing touches: Add those highlights and "power lines" that make graffiti pop. Our pros will help you add those final details that make it look professional.
  8. The reveal and photos: We step back, admire the work, and snap some epic group photos. You’ve officially made your mark on Durbs!

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join a graffiti workshop?

No artistic skills are required at all! Our Durban onboarding workshops are specifically designed for beginners. Our pro artists will guide you through everything from how to hold the spray can to advanced fading techniques. You'll be amazed at how quickly you can create something awesome when you've got a local expert showing you the ropes in a fun, relaxed environment.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need to create your masterpiece! This includes high-quality spray paint in a variety of vibrant colours, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or boards you'll be working on. Just bring your energy and maybe some old sneakers you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on!

What is the ideal group size for an onboarding session?

For our onboarding workshops in Durban, we usually recommend a minimum of 5-10 people to get a great vibe going. However, we can cater to massive groups of up to 100+ for large corporate inductions or community events. The more the merrier – there’s nothing like a huge group mural to build team spirit and get the creative juices flowing!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality spray paint and provide all necessary protective gear, including FFP2 masks and gloves. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or large indoor studios with proper airflow. Our professional artists also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can to ensure a worry-free experience for everyone.

What happens if it rains on the day of our workshop?

Absolutely! While we love Durban's sunshine, we always have a plan B. We have access to various sheltered or indoor locations across the city that allow us to spray safely even if a coastal storm rolls in. Plus, with our network of backup artists, we guarantee your event will go ahead as planned regardless of minor hiccups.

How long does a typical workshop last?

Standard onboarding workshops usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of Durban street art, a technique demo, individual practice, and the creation of a final group piece. We can also tailor the timing to fit your specific schedule if you’re running a tighter team-building or induction half-day.
