Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum age for the school holiday workshop?

We recommend that children be at least 8 years old to participate in our Riga school holiday workshops. This ensures they have the hand strength to operate the spray cans and the focus to follow safety instructions. For younger creative spirits, we can arrange special 'junior' sessions using water-based markers or chalk sprays upon request, making sure everyone gets to join the fun safely.

Do the kids need any prior drawing or art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional street artists in Riga will guide the group through every single step, from holding the can to advanced shading techniques. By the end of the session, even those who thought they couldn't draw a stick figure will be amazed at the vibrant graffiti masterpiece they've created. It's all about fun and discovery!

Is it safe for children to use spray paint?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep clothes clean and lungs safe. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas or outdoor spots across Riga. Furthermore, our artists are experienced educators who supervise the group closely, ensuring that the spray cans are used responsibly and safely throughout the entire creative process.

What should my child wear to the graffiti workshop?

We suggest wearing comfortable 'old' clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be a bit messy when the creativity starts flowing! Since Riga weather can be unpredictable, please check the forecast—if we are at an outdoor location, a spare jumper or light jacket is always a good idea.

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

If the Latvian weather doesn't cooperate, don't worry! We have access to several cool indoor creative spaces and 'hall of fame' spots in Riga that are covered. We always have a backup plan ready so that the school holiday fun doesn't have to be cancelled. Your booking is safe with us, rain or shine, and we’ll coordinate the exact spot with you beforehand.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Our standard school holiday workshops in Riga usually last between 1.5 and 2 hours. This provides the perfect balance of time to learn the theory, practice basic strokes, and complete a final large-scale piece. For larger groups or those wanting a more intensive 'Masterclass' experience, we can extend the session duration to 3 hours. We keep the energy high and the pace engaging!

Do I need to pay in advance to book a date?

We believe in total flexibility for parents and organisers. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your Riga workshop. Payments are settled after the workshop is completed, ensuring you are 100% satisfied with the experience. We accept various payment methods, making the process as smooth as possible so you can focus on enjoying the school break with the kids.
