Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our workshops in Takoradi are designed for everyone, from people who can't draw a straight line to seasoned hobbyists. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics of can control, lines, and shading. You'll be amazed at how quickly you pick up the techniques. By the end of the session, you'll have created a piece of art you're truly proud of!

What equipment is included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes high-quality spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gloves, masks, and overall suits to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvas or surface you'll be painting on. Just bring your enthusiasm and maybe a bottle of water to stay hydrated in the Takoradi sun!

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our number one priority. We use high-quality low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control, and we provide all necessary safety gear, including FFP2 masks and gloves. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. Our instructors are experienced professionals who ensure everyone follows safety protocols while having a blast.

What should I wear to the session?

We recommend wearing comfortable, casual clothing and closed-toe shoes. While we do provide protective overall suits, spray paint can be unpredictable, so it’s best not to wear your favourite designer outfit! Think "clothes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on." Since Takoradi is coastal and warm, lightweight fabrics are usually the best choice for staying cool.

How long does the workshop last?

Typically, our tourist workshops in Takoradi last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the creation of your final masterpiece. It’s the perfect length to fit into a busy sightseeing schedule without feeling rushed, leaving you plenty of time to explore the rest of the Oil City.

Can I book this for a large group of friends?

We love hosting groups! Our workshops are perfect for families, groups of friends travelling together, or even solo travellers looking to meet new people. While we have a minimum group size for private bookings, we can accommodate large groups as well. If you have a specific group size in mind, just let us know when you request your quote!

What is your cancellation and payment policy?

We understand that travel plans can change. That’s why we offer a flexible booking system with no upfront payment required. You only pay after the workshop has been completed and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. We also have backup artists available to ensure your session goes ahead as planned, even if there’s an unexpected scheduling hiccup.
