How it works

  1. Initial chat: We start by discussing the specific needs, abilities, and interests of your group in Port Moresby to tailor the workshop perfectly.
  2. Safety first: On the day, we kit everyone out in protective gear—overalls, gloves, and masks—making sure everyone feels comfortable and ready.
  3. Can control: Our artists demonstrate how to hold the spray can, how to use different nozzles, and how to create basic lines and splashes.
  4. Sketching the dream: Participants get to brainstorm their ideas, choosing colours and basic shapes for their section of the wall or canvas.
  5. Filling in the colour: This is the fun part! Everyone starts applying vibrant colours, learning how to layer and blend under our expert guidance.
  6. Adding the 'Pop': Our artists help add outlines or highlights to make the artwork really stand out and look professional.
  7. The big reveal: We take a step back to admire the collective masterpiece created by the group—a proud moment for everyone involved!

Frequently asked questions

Is the paint used in the workshop safe for everyone?

Absolutely! We use high-quality, water-based spray paints for our indoor sessions in Port Moresby, which are low-odour and non-toxic. For outdoor sessions, we use standard professional paints but ensure everyone is equipped with high-grade respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls. Safety is our number one priority, and our artists are trained to supervise the use of materials constantly to ensure a risk-free creative environment for all participants.

Can you bring the workshop to our specific location?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you want us to come to your facility in Port Moresby, a local community centre, or an outdoor park, we can make it work. We provide all the necessary floor protection and mobile 'graffiti walls' (cellophane or boards) so we can set up a professional studio vibe anywhere. If you don't have a venue, just let us know and we can help find a suitable local spot.

Are the workshops accessible for wheelchair users or those with limited mobility?

Yes! Our Port Moresby workshops are designed to be fully inclusive. We can set up our 'canvases' at various heights to accommodate wheelchair users, and we use adaptive tools like 'fat caps' (nozzles) that are easier to press for those with limited hand strength. Our artists are patient, encouraging, and experienced in adapting their teaching style to meet the physical and cognitive needs of every individual in the group.

Do participants need to have any previous art experience?

Not at all! Our special needs program is all about the 'process' rather than the 'product'. We start with very basic shapes and freestyle movements to get everyone comfortable with the spray cans. Our artists provide as much or as little 'hands-on' assistance as needed. You don't need to be an artist to have a blast; the goal is to enjoy the colours, the movement, and the pride of creating something unique.

How long does a special needs graffiti session usually last?

A typical session in Port Moresby lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for maintaining high energy and focus without causing fatigue. However, we can easily shorten or lengthen the session based on the specific needs and attention spans of your group. We always include plenty of time for setup, safety briefings, the creative process, and a final 'photo op' with the finished masterpiece!

What is the maximum group size for these workshops?

We suggest a minimum of 5 people to get a good group dynamic, but we can cater to much larger groups by bringing in additional professional artists. For special needs programs, we prefer smaller sub-groups (usually 5-8 people per artist) to ensure everyone gets the personal attention and support they deserve. If you have a very large community group, just contact us and we can scale the team to fit.

How do I pay, and do I need to pay upfront?

No deposit is required! We believe in building trust with the Port Moresby community. You can book your date, and payment is only handled after the workshop is completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. This 'pay later' policy ensures you can book with total peace of mind, knowing we are committed to delivering a fantastic, high-energy event for your participants.
