Frequently asked questions
Do I need any previous art experience to join?
Not at all! Our Mount Hagen workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists will guide you through everything from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. By the time we finish, you’ll have created a piece of art you’re truly proud of. It’s all about having fun and expressing your unique personality through color.
Is the graffiti workshop safe for tourists?
Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint in a well-ventilated outdoor setting. Our instructors are experienced professionals who ensure everyone follows safety protocols while having a blast. Just wear some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a bit of dust on!
How long does the workshop last?
A standard workshop for tourists in Mount Hagen typically lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us plenty of time for a safety briefing, some practice runs on cardboard or practice walls, and then the final creation of your masterpiece. It’s the perfect length to fit into a busy day of sightseeing or trekking.
Do I need to pay in advance?
We believe in flexibility for our travelers. You don’t need to pay anything upfront when you book your Mount Hagen experience. You simply pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied with the session. This ensures you can book with total peace of mind while exploring Papua New Guinea.
What materials are included in the price?
We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes a wide variety of premium spray paint colours, caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective gear, and the surface you'll be painting on. For tourists, we often use high-quality canvases or boards so you have a physical piece of art to remember your trip by!
Can I book a workshop for a large group?
We can host workshops for almost any group size! Whether you are a solo traveller looking for a private session, a couple on holiday, or a large tour group visiting the Western Highlands, we have the staff and equipment to accommodate you. For larger groups, we bring in backup artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention.
What happens if it rains on the day?
Mount Hagen can have some tropical rain, but don't worry! We always have a 'plan B.' If the weather doesn't play ball, we move to a covered outdoor area or an indoor space with proper ventilation. We also have a team of backup artists ready to go, so your creative session will never be cancelled last minute.
