Why choose us in Geneva?

Why choose a graffiti experience in Geneva for your group? It’s more than just painting; it’s about breaking barriers and building a sense of belonging in the community. ✨

Sensory satisfaction: The sound of the can, the feel of the spray, and the instant visual reward make it a fantastic tactile activity. 🔊
Zero-pressure environment: In graffiti, there’s no such thing as a "bad" drawing. It’s all about the process and the joy of creation.
Confidence boost: Seeing a giant, colourful piece of art that you helped create provides an incredible sense of achievement. 💪
Highly adaptive: We use various nozzle types (caps) and tools that can be adjusted for different grip strengths and motor skills.
Bespoke pacing: We don't rush! We move at the speed of the group, ensuring everyone stays engaged and happy. 🐢💨
Total peace of mind: With no upfront payment and backup artists ready to go, your Geneva event is in safe hands.

How it works

Initial consultation: We chat about your group's specific needs, mobility requirements, and sensory preferences to tailor the perfect Geneva session.
Artist matching: we pair you with one of our professional Geneva graffiti artists who has the right temperament and experience for your group.
Safety briefing: We start the day by getting everyone suited up in protective gear and explaining how to use the equipment safely and comfortably.
Sensory introduction: Participants get to feel the cans, hear the 'click-clack' of the mixing ball, and see the vibrant colours before we start.
Basic techniques: We teach simple, satisfying moves like making dots, lines, and soft clouds of colour to build immediate confidence.
Collaborative sketching: We help the group outline a large-scale design or let everyone claim their own section of the wall for free expression.
Adding the 'pop': Our artists help participants fill in shapes and add those final bright highlights that make the artwork truly stand out.
The big reveal: We take a moment to step back, admire the collective masterpiece, and take plenty of photos of the proud artists.
Easy cleanup: We handle all the messy bits, disposing of cans and gear, leaving you with only great memories (and maybe a canvas!).

Frequently asked questions

Is the spray paint safe for participants with sensitivities?

Absolutely! We use high-quality, water-based spray paints where possible and always provide professional-grade FFP2 or FFP3 masks, gloves, and protective suits. Safety is our number one priority, and our Geneva artists are trained to supervise the session closely. We ensure the environment is well-ventilated and that everyone feels comfortable and secure before we even pop the cap on a single can of paint.

Are the workshops wheelchair accessible?

We believe art should be accessible to everyone. Our primary locations in Geneva are chosen for their accessibility, featuring flat ground and wide spaces. If we are coming to your venue, we will coordinate with you beforehand to ensure the layout works for wheelchairs or those with mobility aids. We can also adjust the height of our 'graffiti walls' so everyone can reach their masterpiece comfortably.

Can we do the workshop on a canvas instead of a wall?

Yes, we do! While many groups love the experience of painting on a real wall in an urban setting, we also offer workshops using large canvases. This is a great 'keepable' option where participants can take their collective artwork back to their centre or home. In Geneva, we can set up these mobile walls almost anywhere that has a bit of fresh air and space to move.

How do your artists handle different learning speeds?

Our artists are not just talented painters; they are patient, energetic, and experienced in working with diverse groups. We take the time to understand the specific needs of your participants before the session starts. Whether it's providing more one-on-one guidance or allowing for more frequent breaks, our team in Geneva is dedicated to making sure every single person feels included and successful.

How long does a typical special needs workshop last?

Standard sessions usually run between 1.5 and 3 hours. However, we know that flexibility is key for special needs programming. We can shorten the session to maintain engagement or lengthen it to allow for a more relaxed pace. Just let us know what works best for your group's routine, and we will tailor the Geneva schedule to fit your specific requirements perfectly.

Is this activity suitable for non-verbal participants?

Not at all! One of the many benefits of graffiti is that it’s very physical and visual. We use a lot of demonstrations, hand gestures, and 'follow-the-leader' style teaching. This makes it a fantastic activity for individuals who may have communication challenges or those who prefer non-verbal expression. It's all about the spray, the colour, and the movement!

What should participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable old clothes and trainers that you don't mind getting a little 'colourful'. While we provide full protective suits (ovarells) and gloves, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto shoes or sleeves! We provide everything else: the paint, the caps, the masks, and the creative inspiration. Just bring your enthusiasm and a 'can-do' attitude to our Geneva site!
