Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

You definitely don't need to be the next Banksy! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional graffiti artists will guide you through every step, from holding the spray can correctly to creating your first piece of art. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before, and they always leave with something they are proud of!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for tourists?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks, to ensure you don't get paint on your clothes or inhale fumes. We use professional-grade spray cans in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. Our instructors are also trained to manage the workshop environment safely, making it a worry-free experience for tourists of all ages.

How long does the workshop session last?

Standard tourist workshops usually last between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, practice different spray techniques, and complete a final collaborative or individual masterpiece. If you are on a tight holiday schedule in Marrakech, we can often adjust the timing to fit your itinerary!

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide protective suits and gloves, street art can occasionally be a bit messy! Since Marrakech can get quite warm, breathable fabrics are your best bet. Avoid your absolute favourite designer outfits just to be on the safe side.

Can I choose what I want to paint?

Absolutely! While we have a planned curriculum to teach you the basics, we love it when tourists bring their own ideas. Whether you want to incorporate Moroccan patterns, write your name in a specific style, or use certain colours, our artists will help you bring your vision to life on the canvas or wall.

What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule?

We understand that travel plans can change. That’s why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy and have backup artists ready to go. If you need to reschedule your session in Marrakech, just let us know as soon as possible, and we will do our best to accommodate your new holiday schedule without any fuss.

What is the maximum group size for a session?

The more the merrier! We cater to solo travellers, couples, families, and large tour groups. Our pricing is flexible based on your group size. Whether you're looking for an intimate creative session or a massive team-building event during a Marrakech retreat, we have the staff and materials to make it happen smoothly.
