Frequently asked questions
What equipment do you provide for the festival workshop?
Absolutely everything is included! We bring high-quality spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your festival gear clean. Depending on the setup, we provide either large-scale wooden partitions, canvases, or even a vehicle to paint on. You just need to bring your creative energy and we handle the setup and the messy cleanup afterwards. It is a completely hassle-free addition to your event.
Can beginners participate in the graffiti sessions?
No experience is necessary at all! Our professional artists specialize in teaching complete beginners. We guide festival-goers through the basic techniques—from how to hold the can to creating flares and shadows—ensuring everyone walks away feeling like a pro. Whether you are five years old or eighty-five, our workshops are designed to be inclusive, easy to follow, and most importantly, a massive amount of fun for all skill levels.
Is the spray paint safe for festival attendees?
Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 respirators and nitrile gloves for all participants. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas, which is perfect for the open-air festival vibe in Dar es Salaam. Our artists are also trained in crowd management to ensure that everyone can spray safely without any risks to themselves or other festival attendees. It’s all about having fun in a secure environment.
How many people can participate at once?
The beauty of our workshop is its flexibility! We can run 'drop-in' sessions where hundreds of people contribute to a giant communal mural throughout the day, or scheduled 60-minute intensive workshops for smaller groups. We can scale our team of artists up or down to match your festival's footfall. Whether you have 20 people or 2,000, we create a flow that keeps the energy high and the queues low.
Do we need to provide a wall for the artists?
We are very flexible with our workspace! Ideally, we need a flat outdoor area. We usually bring our own mobile graffiti walls, so we don't need existing walls to paint on. This means we can set up in the middle of a field, on a car park, or at a beach-side venue. As long as there is enough space for people to move around safely, we can transform almost any spot into a vibrant art zone.
Do you offer professional mural painting alongside the workshop?
We certainly do! If you want a professional masterpiece to act as a backdrop for your festival, our lead artists can create a custom mural that reflects your event's theme or branding. Often, we combine this with the workshop: our artists paint the main outline or 'piece,' and then we invite the public to fill in the 'burn' or background. It’s a great way to have a high-quality art piece that the community helped create!
