Frequently asked questions

Do I need any prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our Johor Bahru workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Most of our guests have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics, from how to hold the can and control the pressure to creating clean lines and fills. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created!

Is the workshop safe for tourists?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits to ensure you stay clean and safe throughout the experience. We also use low-odour professional spray paint. Our instructors provide a full safety briefing before we start, ensuring you can focus entirely on the fun and creative side of the workshop without any worries.

How long does the graffiti session last?

A standard tourist graffiti workshop in JB typically lasts around 2 hours. This gives us enough time for an introduction to the history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the creation of your final artwork. We find this is the perfect duration to learn a new skill while still leaving plenty of time in your holiday schedule.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of dust on. While we provide full protective gear including overalls and shoe covers, graffiti can sometimes be a messy business! Avoid wearing your most expensive designer gear just in case. Comfortable trainers are definitely better than flip-flops for maintaining a steady hand.

Is there an age limit for the activity?

We generally welcome aspiring artists of all ages! For our tourist workshops, we recommend a minimum age of 6 years old so they can comfortably hold and press the spray cans. It’s a fantastic family activity that bridges the generation gap—we’ve seen kids and grandparents creating incredible art side-by-side. It’s a wonderful way to create a unique family holiday memory.

Do I need to pay in advance?

We believe transparency and satisfaction are key to a great holiday experience. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book. You only pay after the workshop is completed, ensuring you are 100% happy with the service and the fun you've had. This take-the-stress-out approach allows you to book with confidence while exploring Johor Bahru.

Can I take my graffiti art home with me?

If you are joining a canvas-based workshop, you can absolutely keep your artwork! It makes for the ultimate, one-of-a-kind souvenir from your trip to Malaysia. If we are working on a collaborative large-scale mural, we’ll make sure to take plenty of high-quality photos of you with the finished piece so you can show off your skills to everyone back home.
