How it works

  1. The warm-up: Meet your pro graffiti artist and get a quick introduction to the tools of the trade and safety basics.
  2. Sketching the vision: Grab some paper and pencils to brainstorm your designs before we touch the walls.
  3. Can control 101: Learn how to hold the spray can, adjust your pressure, and master different nozzles for various effects.
  4. Outline your soul: Head to the festival wall and start sketching your lines with light-coloured paint to set the foundation.
  5. Fill it with life: This is the fun part! Choose your palette and start filling in your piece with vibrant, bold colours.
  6. The sharp edge: Use 'cutting' techniques to sharpen your outlines and make your graffiti pop against the background.
  7. Add the 'wow' factor: Apply highlights, shadows, and cool effects like drips or bubbles to give your art a professional finish.
  8. Final signatures: Every artist needs a tag! Add your personal signature to the masterpiece you've helped create.

Frequently asked questions

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

Absolutely not! Most of our festival participants have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are there to guide you through every step, from basic line work to complex filling techniques. We provide a fun, low-pressure environment where you can experiment and find your own creative rhythm. It's all about the experience and having a blast with the Tamale community while learning a new skill.

What materials are provided during the street art festival?

We've got you fully covered. We provide high-quality spray paint in a rainbow of colours, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the 'canvas'—whether that's a communal festival wall or individual boards. You just need to show up with your creative energy and comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty while we work our magic!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odour, professional-grade spray paints and provide all necessary safety gear, including high-quality masks and gloves. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas, which is perfect for the Tamale climate. Our instructors are also trained to manage groups safely, ensuring everyone handles the equipment correctly while having a fantastic time throughout the session.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

For our festival setups in Tamale, we usually run sessions lasting between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, practice some basic techniques, and then dive into creating a large-scale masterpiece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where you can really get into the flow without getting too tired under the Ghanaian sun.

Can you accommodate large groups for city-wide festivals?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you want a small, intimate creative corner for 10 people or a massive interactive installation for hundreds of festival-goers, we can scale our team and materials to fit. We have a deep bench of backup artists to ensure that no matter the size of your event in Northern Ghana, we can deliver a high-energy, professional experience without any hitches.

What is your payment policy for festival bookings?

Booking with Graffitifun is completely risk-free. You don't have to pay a single cedi upfront! We believe in the quality of our workshops so much that we only ask for payment after the event is finished and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. This 'pay-after' policy ensures you can plan your festival logistics with total peace of mind and zero financial stress.

Do you offer workshops in other Ghanaian cities?

While we love bringing the festival vibe to Tamale, we also operate in other major Ghanaian hubs! We offer similar high-energy graffiti experiences in Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi, and Cape Coast. If you are planning a multi-city tour or a series of brand activations across the country, our team is mobile and ready to bring the spray paint revolution to whichever city you choose.
