How it works

The warm-up: We kick things off with a high-energy intro where you'll learn about the culture of street art and the professional tools of the trade. 🎉
Master the tech: Our artists demonstrate essential spray techniques—from 'fat caps' for filling to 'skinny caps' for those sharp, detailed lines.
Sketching your soul: Grab a marker! You'll spend time brainstorming and sketching your concept, drawing inspiration from Tamale’s unique landscape.
Safety first: Suit up in your protective gear. We make sure everyone is masked and ready to paint safely and comfortably. 🛡️
Outline your vision: Head to the wall and put your first lines down. It's the most exciting part as your ideas take a physical, giant form!
Fill and fade: Learn the art of gradients and "fading" colours together to create that classic, professional graffiti look.
The final cut: Add the outlines and 'highlights' that make your artwork pop off the surface and look 3D.
Group reflection: We step back as a group to admire the collective masterpiece and discuss the creative journey we've shared.
Photo finish: We capture high-quality photos of you and your work—the perfect souvenir of your creative retreat! 📷

Practical details

Our retreat workshops are designed to be seamless. A standard session lasts about 2 to 3 hours, though we can easily extend this for full-day retreats. We cater to all group sizes, from intimate groups of 5 to large-scale corporate gatherings of 100+ people. 🎨

Safety is our middle name! We provide all the gear: professional masks, gloves, and protective overalls. We mostly work outdoors or in very well-ventilated spaces to ensure a fresh environment. Everything is included—you just bring your enthusiasm. If you're looking for something different, we also offer 3D street art options or specialized workshops for schools and festivals.

Frequently asked questions

I have zero artistic talent, can I still join the retreat?

Absolutely! Our Tamale retreat workshops are designed for everyone, from people who have never touched a spray can to experienced creatives. Our professional artists guide you through every single step, ensuring you feel confident and inspired. We focus on the joy of creation and 'letting go' rather than technical perfection, making it the perfect stress-free environment for beginners to thrive.

How long does a typical retreat workshop last?

A standard creative retreat session in Tamale usually lasts between 2 to 3 hours. However, because this is a retreat format, we can extend the experience into a half-day or full-day event inclusive of multiple projects. We are flexible and will tailor the timing to suit your group's schedule and the level of depth you want to dive into.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything! Your session includes high-quality spray paints, protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the 'canvas'—whether that’s a large mobile wall or individual boards. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty while exploring the vibrant spirit of Tamale.

What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor session?

Tamale’s weather is generally great, but if rain persists, we have several options. We can move the retreat to a covered outdoor area or an indoor ventilated space. We also have a network of backup artists and flexible booking terms, so we can often reschedule to a better time slot if the weather really doesn't want to play along with us.

Do I need to pay for the workshop in advance?

We believe in our experience so much that we offer a 'no cure, no pay' approach for many settings and don't require upfront payments for most bookings. You can book your date, get everything confirmed, and only worry about the payment once the workshop is complete. This keeps things completely stress-free for you while you plan your perfect creative getaway in Northern Ghana.

Is the workshop safe for everyone involved?

Safety is our top priority. We use low-odour artist-grade spray paints and provide all necessary European-standard protective gear, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks. Our artists are highly trained in site safety and group management. We ensure a clean, safe, and controlled environment so you can focus entirely on your artistic expression and the group connection.
