Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have any drawing skills to take part?

No prior artistic experience is needed at all! Our workshops are designed to be accessible for everyone, from total novices to those with a creative streak. Our professional graffiti artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic spray can techniques and ending with a piece of art you'll be proud of. It’s all about having fun and being creative in the heart of Athens.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for tourists?

The safety of our guests is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, to ensure a clean and safe environment. Our artists are highly experienced professionals who will teach you how to handle spray cans safely. We use low-pressure cans that are easier to control, making the experience safe for both adults and older children participating in the tour.

What should I wear to my Athens graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls or aprons, spray paint can sometimes find its way onto shoes or sleeves. Athens can get quite warm, so light, breathable fabrics are best. Since our workshops often take place at vibrant outdoor locations, make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes to enjoy the local atmosphere.

How long does the workshop experience last?

Our standard workshops for tourists usually last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of the local scene, practice your technique, and complete a final collaborative or individual masterpiece. If you have a tight schedule while visiting the sights of Athens, let us know and we can potentially adapt the duration to fit your itinerary.

Can I book this for a large group or just as a solo traveller?

We love hosting groups of all sizes! Whether you are a solo traveller looking to meet others, a couple on holiday, or a large family group, we can accommodate you. For larger tour groups or corporate retreats visiting Greece, we can arrange multiple artists to ensure everyone gets plenty of hands-on coaching and personal attention throughout the creative process.

Are materials like spray cans and masks included?

Yes, absolutely! Everything you need to create your art is included in the price. This covers all the spray paint in a wide variety of colours, caps/nozzles, safety equipment, and the surfaces we paint on. There are no hidden costs. You just need to bring your energy and creativity—we handle all the logistics and cleanup so you can enjoy your holiday.

What happens if I need to cancel or change my booking?

We understand that travel plans can change. That’s why we offer a flexible booking system with no upfront payment required. You can book your slot in advance to ensure availability and pay after the workshop is completed. If you need to reschedule your visit to our Athens location, just give us a shout as early as possible and we will do our best to accommodate you.
