Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be good at drawing to join the pop-up?
No artistic skill is required at all! Our Auckland graffiti pop-up is designed for complete beginners. Our professional street artists guide you through the basics of can control, nozzle selection, and layering techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at how much you've learned. It's all about having fun and letting your creativity flow in a supportive environment.🎨
Is the spray paint safe to use indoors or at events?
Safety is our priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, and use low-odour professional spray paint. Our Auckland workshops are held in well-ventilated spaces, ensuring a comfortable experience for everyone. We also provide a safety briefing at the start of every session so you can focus on making art without any worries!✨
What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?
We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, spray paint can be a bit unpredictable! Think 'weekend DIY' vibes. Once you're geared up, you'll be ready to dive into the Auckland street art scene without stressing about your favorite outfit.🧤
How long does a pop-up workshop last?
Our pop-up events in Auckland are super flexible! Most sessions last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a quick intro, practicing your 'tag' or technique, and then completing a final masterpiece on a canvas or a shared wall. It’s the perfect length for a high-energy team build or a weekend creative blast.⏱️
Do I have to pay in advance for the event?
Absolutely! Unlike many other providers, we don't require any upfront payment to secure your booking. We trust our Auckland community! You can book your spot or event, and then pay after the workshop is completed. This makes organising group activities or corporate events in the City of Sails much more stress-free.🙌
Is there an age limit for the graffiti experience?
Our pop-up workshops are great for kids aged 8 and up, as well as adults of all ages! We adjust our teaching style to suit the group. Whether it’s a school group in Hamilton or a corporate team in Auckland CBD, we make sure the difficulty level is just right for everyone to walk away feeling like a pro.🏆
Can you host pop-up events outside of Auckland?
Yes, we love traveling! While we are focusing on Auckland here, our pop-up team is mobile. We can bring the graffiti gear to Wellington, Christchurch, or even Queenstown. Just let us know where you are located in New Zealand, and we will bring the spray cans and the creative vibes right to your doorstep.🚚
