What happens if it rains during the festival?
Napier's coastal breeze is lovely, but heavy rain and spray paint don't mix! We usually set up under marquees or gazebos to keeps things dry and the creative vibes flowing. If the weather is looking particularly dodgy, we can discuss indoor alternatives or portable 'walls' that fit inside local venues like the War Memorial Centre or community halls. We're flexible and always have a plan B to ensure the show goes on!
Is the spray paint safe for festival-goers?
Safety is our top priority while having a blast. We provide high-quality respirators, latex-free gloves, and protective ponchos to keep your festival outfit's mint condition. Our instructors give a full safety briefing before anyone shakes a can. We use low-pressure spray paint which is much easier to control, making it safe for kids, teens, and adults to get involved under our expert supervision. We've got the safety gear covered so you can focus on the art!
How many people can participate at once?
Our 'Street Art Jam' or 'Live Wall' setups are designed for high-traffic events! Depending on the format, we can have anywhere from 5 to 50 people painting at once. For larger Napier festivals, we often run a 'relay' style where people rotate through, allowing hundreds of punters to add their unique touch to a massive collaborative mural over the course of the day. It's an inclusive way to get the whole community involved.
Where in Napier can you set up the workshop?
Everywhere! We are fully mobile. Whether you are hosting an event at the Sound Shell on Marine Parade, a vineyard in the Hawke's Bay, or a school gala in Taradale, we bring the entire studio to you. We handle the transport of boards, paint, and safety gear, and we take care of the setup and pack-down. You just provide the space and the crowd, and we provide the magic!
Do participants need to have any artistic experience?
Not at all! That’s the beauty of it. Our Graffitifun artists are pros at guiding absolute beginners. We start with the basics—how to hold the can, how to control the pressure, and how to make a clean 'tag'. We provide stencils for those who want a bit of help, or free-hand guidance for the bold. Most people are blown away by what they can create in just a few minutes of coaching!
How do you handle the cleanup after the event?
We pride ourselves on leaving a site exactly how we found it. We use heavy-duty floor protection and temporary wooden walls or stretched canvas, so no permanent structures in Napier get unintended 'decorations'. Once the festival is over, we pack everything down and can even arrange for the finished mural to be donated to a local school, or community centre, or kept by the event organisers as a souvenir!
