Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be artistic to join the workshop?

Absolutely not! Our Arusha events are designed for everyone from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our pro artists will walk you through everything from how to hold the spray can to advanced shading techniques. You will be amazed at what you can create in just a couple of hours with a bit of expert guidance and high-quality paint. We provide a supportive, judgment-free environment where fun is the main priority. Quick tip: just bring your enthusiasm and we will handle the rest!

What safety gear is provided during the festival?

Safety is our top priority while we’re busy making art. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean and your lungs protected. All our spray paints are selected for their safety standards. Our artists lead with a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring everyone knows how to handle the equipment properly. It is all about having a blast while staying completely safe and comfortable throughout the session.

What should I wear to the graffiti experience?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide full protective overalls, sometimes those adventurous stray drips can find a way through! Arusha can get quite warm under the sun, so light, breathable fabrics are best. Closed-toe shoes are a must for stability while you’re working on your masterpiece. Think of it as your 'artist's uniform' for the day!

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

While we love a good rainy day for the coffee farms, it’s not ideal for spray painting! For our Arusha festival workshops, we always have a Plan B. If the weather looks like it won’t cooperate, we either move the session to a covered outdoor area or an indoor space with proper ventilation. If neither is available, we will work with you to reschedule for a sunnier day. We make sure your creative flow isn't interrupted by a few raindrops!

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard festival-style workshops usually run between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final piece. If you’re looking for something more intensive or a quick 'drop-in' style for a larger public event, we can easily customise the duration to fit your schedule. It’s the perfect amount of time to get into the flow without getting tired!

Is there a maximum group size for the experience?

We love hosting groups of all sizes! Whether you are a small group of friends or a massive corporate team, we have the artists and materials to accommodate you. For larger festivals, we often run rotating sessions so everyone gets a turn. We keep our artist-to-participant ratio low to ensure everyone gets personal attention and tips. Just let us know your expected numbers, and we will tailor the setup to ensure a smooth, fun experience for everyone involved.
