Frequently asked questions

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

Absolutely not! Our workshops in Leipzig are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic spray techniques and safety rules. You'll be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive once you learn the fundamental 'caps' and 'can-control' methods. It's all about having fun and being expressive!

What materials are included in the tourist workshop?

We provide everything you need to create your masterpiece. This includes professional-grade spray cans in a wide variety of colours, protective overalls, gloves, and high-quality respiratory masks for your safety. We also provide the canvases or designated wall space. The only thing you should bring is your enthusiasm and clothes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on just in case!

How long does the graffiti session take?

The standard graffiti workshop for tourists usually lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief introduction to street art history, a safety briefing, some practice runs on cardboard, and then the main event where you create your final piece. It’s the perfect length to fit into a busy day of sightseeing in Leipzig.

Is the workshop safe for tourists and children?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality, low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control. We provide all necessary PPE (Personal Protective Equipment), including FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't inhaling fumes. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor locations. Our instructors are professional artists who supervise the group closely at all times.

What happens if it rains on the day of my booking?

Leipzig can be a bit moody with its weather! If the forecast looks particularly rainy, we often have covered outdoor areas or 'Plan B' indoor locations available. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we are very flexible. If we have to reschedule due to extreme weather, we’ll work with you to find a time that fits your travel itinerary.

Can I take my graffiti artwork home with me?

One of the best parts of our tourist workshops is that you get to keep your work! You'll typically paint on a high-quality canvas or a sturdy piece of board that you can take back to your hotel. Once the paint is dry (which happens quickly), it’s easy to pack in a suitcase or carry as a unique souvenir of your trip to Saxony.

Do I need to pay in advance for the booking?

We want your Leipzig experience to be stress-free, so we don't require any upfront payment. You can book your slot, and we will confirm everything with you. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you're happy with the results. We believe in our '100% satisfaction guarantee'—if you don't have a blast, we haven't done our job!
