Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely not! Our retreat workshops in Takoradi are designed for everyone, from complete beginners to seasoned doodlers. Our pro artists will guide you through the basics of spray painting, lettering, and colour blending. You’ll find that with the right guidance and a bit of 'Oil City' inspiration, you can create something truly impressive. It’s all about the joy of creating, not just the technical perfection. Let your imagination run wild!

Is the spray paint safe to use during the workshop?

Safety is our top priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality FFP masks, gloves, and protective overalls. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control and produce less fumes. All our sessions take place in well-ventilated areas or outdoors to ensure a safe environment for everyone. Our instructors are also trained to manage groups safely while ensuring everyone has a blast with the paint!

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard creative retreat workshop in Takoradi usually lasts between 2 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final masterpiece. However, we can also offer extended full-day retreat programmes or shorter intensive sessions depending on your schedule. We’re flexible and can adapt the timing to fit perfectly with your retreat's itinerary and overall vibe.

What should I wear for the graffiti retreat workshop?

Comfort is key! We recommend wearing clothes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide full protective overalls and gloves, spray paint can sometimes find a way onto your shoes or sleeves. Think casual, comfortable, and ready for action. Steer clear of your Sunday best or expensive designer gear. Old trainers and comfortable trousers are usually the best choice for a day of street art.

Are all materials included in the workshop price?

We’ve got you covered! We provide everything you need including a wide variety of premium spray paint colours, protective gear (overalls, masks, gloves), and the surfaces to paint on—whether that’s a collective wall or individual canvases. You don't need to bring a single thing except your energy and creativity. If you have specific ideas or sketches, feel free to bring them along, otherwise, we’ll help you brainstorm on the spot!

Can you host the workshop at our specific retreat venue?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our flexibility. We can host the workshop at one of our pre-vetted creative locations in Takoradi, or we can bring the entire setup to your retreat venue, hotel, or office. As long as we have a suitable outdoor space or a very well-ventilated area, we can transform it into a professional graffiti studio for the day. We’re fully mobile across the Western Region!

How does the pricing work for larger retreat groups?

Our pricing is tailored to your specific needs, group size, and the location of the retreat. Because every workshop is unique—ranging from small intimate groups to large corporate team-building events—we provide custom quotes. You can use our online Cost Calculator for a quick estimate, or get in touch for a detailed proposal. Plus, with our 'pay after' policy, you can book with complete peace of mind!
