Is graffiti at a festival safe for children and families?
Absolutely! Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, and our professional artists supervise every spray. We use low-odour, high-quality paints wherever possible. Since festivals are high-traffic areas, we set up designated 'spray zones' to ensure the safety of both our budding artists and the passing crowds. It is a controlled, creative environment where everyone can feel secure while getting messy!
What kind of capacity can you handle for large events?
We are incredibly flexible! Whether you want a massive 'Gram-worthy' mural that grows over three days or a fast-paced 'drop-in' station where hundreds of guests can leave a small tag, we can scale to fit. We bring enough artists and supplies to handle large crowds, ensuring there is never a dull moment. Just let us know your expected footfall, and we will handle the logistics.
What materials do we need to provide?
You don't need any equipment at all! Graffitifun brings everything required for a world-class street art experience. This includes hundreds of spray cans in every colour of the rainbow, nozzles, protective clothing, masks, gloves, and the surfaces themselves (if the venue doesn't have a wall). We even bring drop cloths to keep the festival grounds tidy. You just provide the space and the people!
What happens if it rains during the Goroka Show?
Weather in the Eastern Highlands can be unpredictable, but we've got it covered! We usually recommend a marquee or a covered area for the workshop. If it rains, the show goes on under cover. Spray paint actually dries very quickly, so as long as the surface stays relatively dry during application, the art will look stunning. We always have a backup plan to keep the vibes high!
How long does a typical festival workshop last?
Our workshop formats are very versatile. Sessions can last anywhere from 20 minutes for a quick 'try-it-out' taster to a full 3-hour deep dive into technique and history. For festivals, we usually recommend a 'flow-through' style where people can join and leave as they please, keeping the energy moving and ensuring as many people as possible get a chance to spray.
Can we keep the mural after the festival is over?
We love it when the art lives on! Depending on what we spray on (cellophane walls, wooden boards, or canvases), you can certainly keep the finished pieces. Many festivals use the completed mural as a backdrop for the main stage the following day or auction off pieces for local Goroka charities. It is a fantastic way to create a lasting legacy of the event.
