Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be good at drawing to join the workshop?

Not at all! Our school holiday workshops in Ghent are designed for everyone, from total beginners to budding Michelangelos. Our professional artists guide you through every step, starting with basic lines and moving up to complex fills. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before they arrive, but they all leave with a masterpiece they are proud of. It’s all about the process and having fun!

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We recommend wearing old clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a few paint splatters on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, graffiti is a messy art form and accidents can happen. It’s best to leave your favourite designer gear at home so you can focus entirely on the creative process without worrying about your outfit. Think 'painter chic' for the day!

Is it safe for kids and teenagers to use spray paint?

Safety is our absolute priority. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control and provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 respiratory masks to ensure no one breathes in fumes. Our sessions are held in well-ventilated areas, and our professional instructors supervise the group at all times. We've hosted thousands of workshops across Europe with an impeccable safety record, so you're in very good hands.

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

Ghent is famous for its rain, but it won't dampen our spirits! We have access to several sheltered and indoor locations across the city where we can host the workshop regardless of the weather. If you've booked an outdoor session and the forecast looks particularly grim, we will coordinate with you to move to a dry spot or reschedule. Your graffiti experience will be comfortable and dry!

How long does a typical holiday session last?

Standard school holiday workshops usually last between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of your main piece. If you are part of a larger youth group or community project, we can extend the session to 3 hours to include more complex mural designs or collaborative team-building exercises.

Can I book this for a group of friends?

Absolutely! We love it when groups of friends or siblings join together. While we have a minimum group size for private bookings, we often have 'open' sessions during the school holidays where individuals can sign up. If you have a group of 10 or more, we can even create a bespoke theme just for you. It's a fantastic way to bond over something creative and slightly rebellious!
