Frequently asked questions

How does the booking and payment process work?

Booking our graffiti workshop entertainment for your Bahir Dar festival is a breeze. Since we focus on reliability, we don't require any payment upfront. You only pay after the workshop is completed and everyone is happy. We also keep backup artists on standby to ensure that even if an emergency happens, your event entertainment remains uninterrupted and professional.

What materials are included in the festival package?

We take care of everything so you can focus on the festival highlights. Our team provides high-quality spray cans in a wide variety of colors, protective suits, gloves, and high-grade breathing masks. We also provide the canvases or temporary walls. All we need is a flat area and your enthusiastic crowd ready to create some amazing street art!

Is the workshop safe for festival visitors?

Safety is our absolute priority, especially in crowded festival environments. We provide professional-grade protective gear for every participant. Our artists are trained to manage groups safely and ensure that the spray paint stays on the designated surfaces. We also use low-odor paints whenever possible to keep the atmosphere pleasant for all festival attendees around the lake.

Can children and adults participate together?

Absolutely! Our graffiti workshops are designed to be inclusive. We have techniques that work for young children, teenagers, and adults alike. For festivals in Bahir Dar, we often see entire families joining in. Our artists adapt their teaching style to the age and skill level of whoever picks up a spray can at the moment.

How many people can participate in one day?

The beauty of our festival workshops is their flexibility. We can run continuous 'drop-in' sessions where people join for 15-20 minutes, or scheduled 1.5 to 3-hour deep-dive workshops. Depending on your festival's schedule near the Blue Nile, we can rotate hundreds of participants through the art zone over the course of a single day.

What if the festival venue doesn't have a wall?

We are experts at creating 'temporary' art spaces. If your festival venue doesn't have a permanent wall we can use, we bring professional mobile wooden walls or stretch large canvases between frames. This allows us to set up the graffiti zone anywhere—from the lush gardens of a lakeside resort to the bustling city center squares.
