Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Our Kumasi street art festival workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a straight line to seasoned illustrators. Our professional artists guide you through every step, starting with basic spray can control and safety. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It's all about having fun and expressing your unique personality through bold colours.

What materials are provided during the festival workshop?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes high-quality spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gloves, masks, and overall suits to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or designated wall space. Just bring your enthusiasm and wear comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on!

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our top priority at every Graffitifun event. We provide high-quality respiratory masks and gloves to all participants. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces within the festival grounds. Our professional artists also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring a worry-free and creative environment for all ages.

How long does a typical street art session last?

Our festival workshops are very flexible! Typically, a full guided session lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. However, since we are part of a larger street art festival in Kumasi, we can offer shorter 'taster' sessions of 30-45 minutes for those who want to try it out between other festival activities. We can tailor the timing to suit your group's schedule.

How much does a workshop at the Kumasi festival cost?

Since our street art festival experiences are custom-designed for different group sizes and setup requirements, we don't have a flat rate. Factors like the number of participants and the amount of paint used influence the cost. However, we offer instant quotes! You can use our online Cost Calculator or contact us for a personalized price—and remember, you only pay after the workshop!

Is this activity suitable for children and families?

Yes, graffiti is a fantastic activity for kids and teens! We offer specialized kids' party formats and school programs that are incredibly popular. It's a great way for young people in Kumasi to develop their motor skills, explore their creativity, and learn about the positive, artistic side of street culture in a controlled and safe environment. Children usually find it's the highlight of the festival!

What happens if it rains or an artist is unavailable?

While we love the Kumasi sunshine, we always have a plan B. If the weather doesn't cooperate, we usually have access to covered areas or marquees within the festival site. Additionally, we have backup artists on standby for every booking, so you never have to worry about a cancellation due to staff illness. We are committed to making sure your creative experience happens no matter what!
