Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Most of our festival participants have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are there to guide you through the basics, from how to hold the can to creating clean lines. We focus on a 'fun-first' approach, ensuring everyone walks away with a smile and a sense of achievement, regardless of their artistic background.🎨

Is the graffiti workshop safe for festival-goers?

Safety is our top priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint and conduct our mobile festival workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially prepared indoor spaces. Our instructors provide a full safety briefing before any paint starts flying!✅

What is the minimum age for participants?

We usually recommend a minimum age of 6 to 8 years old so they can handle the spray cans comfortably. For festivals, we often set up dedicated 'kids zones' with lighter cans and simpler designs. It’s a fantastic way for children to express their creativity in a controlled and supervised environment while parents enjoy the rest of the festival.🎉

How many people can join the workshop at once?

We are very flexible! Whether you are hosting a small boutique fair or a massive multi-day music festival, we can scale our setup. We can run small rotating groups of 10 or manage hundreds of participants throughout the day using multiple artist stations. Just let us know your expected footfall, and we will plan the perfect capacity.📈

How long does a typical festival workshop session last?

The great thing about our festival setup is the 'drop-in' nature. A typical session for an individual participant can last anywhere from 20 to 45 minutes, allowing them to create something cool and then head off to see the next band. However, we can also offer longer, more deep-dive sessions if your festival schedule allows for it.⏱️

What happens if it rains during the event?

While we love the sun, we are prepared for the Dutch weather! For festivals, we can bring pop-up tents and coverings to ensure the workshop continues even if there’s a drizzle. If the weather becomes truly extreme, we’ll work with you to find a safe indoor alternative or reschedule. We always have backup plans in place.🌦️️

Can you create a collaborative mural during the festival?

We certainly can! While our standard workshops focus on individual creativity, we can also facilitate 'community canvases' where festival attendees contribute to one massive piece of art over the course of the day. This creates a lasting memento of the festival that can even be displayed at the event the following year.🤝
