Frequently asked questions

I have no artistic talent, can I still join the workshop?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Adama have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you how to hold the can, control the pressure, and create clean lines. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It is designed to be a fun, stress-free environment for everyone regardless of their artistic background.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for tourists?

Safety is our top priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint, and our instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before we begin. Since the workshops in Adama often take place outdoors or in well-ventilated spaces, you can enjoy the creative process with peace of mind.

How long does the graffiti session last?

A standard tourist workshop in Adama typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of your collaborative or individual mural. We move at a pace that ensures you learn the skills without feeling rushed, leaving plenty of time for photos and fun.

What should I wear for my graffiti experience in Adama?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of dust or paint on, even though we provide protective overalls. Because Adama can get quite warm, breathable fabrics are your best friend. Don't forget your sunglasses and a hat if we are working at an outdoor location! We bring everything else, including all the paint and caps you will need.

Do I need to pay for the workshop in advance?

We are very flexible! You don't need to pay everything upfront. One of the best parts of booking with Graffitifun is that you can pay after the workshop is completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience before the final transaction. We want your visit to Adama to be stress-free and full of positive vibes from start to finish.

What exactly is included in the price?

The price usually includes the expert guidance of a professional graffiti artist, all the professional spray paint you can use, various nozzles (caps) for different effects, protective gear (mask, gloves, suit), and the canvas or wall space for your art. We also provide a backup artist for every booking to ensure your event goes ahead no matter what happens. Energy and fun are always included!
