How it works

  1. Warm welcome and intro: Meet your local pro artist at the designated street art spot in Blida. We’ll kick things off with a brief history of how graffiti evolved into a global art form.
  2. Gear up for action: Put on your protective overalls, gloves, and masks. We provide everything you need to stay clean while you get creative.
  3. Master the nozzle: Learn 'Can Control'. Our artists show you how to hold the spray can, how to adjust pressure, and how to create different line widths and effects.
  4. Sketching your concept: Use paper or go straight to the wall/canvas to outline your design. Whether it’s your name or a symbol of your Algerian travels, we’ll help you refine the layout.
  5. The first layer: Start filling in your shapes with vibrant colours. This is where you learn about 'fill-ins' and how to create smooth, solid blocks of colour.
  6. Sharpening the edges: Use 'cutting' techniques to fix mistakes and 'outlining' to make your design pop against the background.
  7. Adding the details: Learn how to add highlights, shadows, and 'force fields' (outer glows) to give your graffiti that professional 3D look.
  8. The final reveal: Step back and admire your work! This is the perfect time for a group photo session with your finished masterpiece.
  9. Wrap up: If you painted on canvas, we’ll help you pack it up safely. If it’s a mural, you leave Blida with a digital memory of your mark on the city.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any prior art experience to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Most of our visitors in Blida have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert teachers who will guide you through every step, from basic nozzle control to advanced layering. We create a relaxed, supportive environment where the focus is on experimentation and having a blast, regardless of your previous artistic background.

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little 'artistic' on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls, shoe covers, and gloves, spray paint is adventurous and can sometimes find its way onto your trainers. It is best to dress down so you can focus entirely on your masterpiece without worrying about your wardrobe!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide professional-grade filtered masks and ensure all our workshops in Blida take place in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. Our spray paints are high-quality, and our instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone starts painting. We make sure the environment is secure for everyone involved.

How long does a typical workshop last?

The standard tourist workshop lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of the craft, a demonstration of techniques, practice time, and the creation of your final piece. If you have a larger group or want a more intensive deep-dive, we can easily extend the duration to suit your schedule.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

In our tourist workshops, you typically get to paint on high-quality canvases or large mobile wooden panels. The best part? If you paint on a canvas, you can take your original artwork home with you as the ultimate souvenir of your time in Blida! For larger groups, we often work on collaborative murals that make for incredible photos.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We are extremely flexible! You can book a private session for just two people, or we can accommodate large travel groups of 50 or more. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we can scale the event and ensure everyone gets plenty of personal attention and enough spray cans to keep the creativity flowing.

How do I book and when do I pay?

Booking is easy and stress-free with Graffitifun. You don't need to pay anything upfront. Simply request a quote through our website, and we will find a date and time that fits your Blida itinerary. You only pay after the workshop is complete, and we have a 100% satisfaction guarantee to ensure you love the experience.
