Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our Madrid workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic spray can control and moving on to more complex techniques. You'll be amazed at the masterpiece you can create in just a couple of hours with the right guidance. It's all about having fun and expresssing yourself.

What should I bring to the workshop?

We provide everything you need to create your street art masterpiece. This includes a wide range of professional spray paint colours, protective gloves, masks, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or boards you'll be painting on. Just bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty!

What should I wear for the session?

While we provide protective overalls and gear, we always recommend wearing comfortable, 'sensible' clothes that you wouldn't mind getting a tiny splash of paint on. Spray paint is permanent, and while we take every precaution to keep you clean, it's better to be safe than sorry! Avoid your favorite designer gear and opt for casual, older clothing and trainers instead.

Is the workshop safe, especially regarding the paint fumes?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality, low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control. We provide all necessary safety equipment, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks to protect you from fumes and dust, as well as gloves. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas or outdoors. Our instructors also provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can.

What happens if it rains on the day?

Madrid's weather is usually fantastic, but we always have a plan B! If the weather looks like it won't cooperate, we can often move the workshop to a covered outdoor area or an indoor location with proper ventilation. Thanks to our network of backup artists and flexible venues, we rarely have to cancel. We'll always communicate with you in advance if the weather looks tricky.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

The workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the group size and the specific package you've chosen. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final piece. It's the perfect length to fit into a busy sightseeing schedule in Madrid without feeling rushed or taking up your whole day.

Where in Madrid do the workshops take place?

While we can't let you spray-paint the Royal Palace (tempting as it is!), we use designated legal walls or private creative spaces. These are spots where street art is welcomed and celebrated. This allows you to experience the authentic vibe of Madrid's urban art scene legally and safely. You get the real street art experience without any of the legal headaches!
