Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join the Plzen graffiti workshop?

Absolutely no experience is required! Our professional artists specialize in teaching beginners. We start with the absolute basics, from how to hold the spray can to maîtrising pressure control. Most of our guests have never touched a spray can before they arrive in Plzen, and they leave with a piece of art they're genuinely proud of. It’s all about having fun and being creative in a relaxed environment.

What should I wear to my street art session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of 'character' on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and masks, spray paint can sometimes find its way onto sleeves or shoes. Think 'casual and practical' rather than 'dressed for dinner'. If you're visiting Plzen during the cooler months, remember that our outdoor locations can be atmospheric but chilly, so layer up!

Is the spray paint safe to use for tourists?

Safety is our top priority. We provide professional-grade masks to ensure you aren't breathing in fumes, along with gloves and protective suits. Our instructors are experienced pros who teach you the correct techniques to handle the equipment safely. We use high-quality spray paint and conduct workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specialized indoor spaces, ensuring a safe, healthy, and fun experience for everyone involved.

How long does a typical workshop last?

The standard tourist workshop in Plzen typically lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, some practice time, and then the main event—creating your masterpiece. If you have a larger group or want a more intensive deep-dive into street art culture, we can easily extend the session to 3 hours or more upon request.

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

We embrace the local spirit! If it's just a light Czech drizzle, we usually keep the paint flowing under shelters or bridges. However, if the weather looks like it might ruin the fun, we have a backup plan. We can move the session to an indoor location or rearrange the timing. Don't worry—we have backup artists on standby to ensure your creative experience in Plzen goes ahead as smoothly as possible.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

You certainly can! While some of our workshops involve communal murals on legal street art walls, many formats allow you to paint on individual canvases that you can take home as a unique souvenir of your trip to Plzen. If you're travelling light, we can also focus on digital photos of your wall art, or you can even use our Tag Creator tool online after the session to immortalize your design.

Is there an age limit for the graffiti experience?

Our workshops are generally suitable for anyone aged 8 and up. For younger children, we focus more on stencil art and simpler techniques to ensure they have a blast without getting frustrated. It's a fantastic activity for families visiting Plzen, providing a creative break from traditional sightseeing. We just ask that minors are accompanied by an adult to join in the colourful fun!
