Is this workshop suitable for complete beginners?
Absolutely! Most of our visitors in Tokyo have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists break down the process into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to more complex techniques. You will be amazed at how quickly you can create a piece you are proud of under our guidance.
What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?
We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide high-quality protective suits, gloves, and masks to keep you clean, graffiti can sometimes be a bit messy. It is better to be safe and leave your favorite designer outfits at the hotel for the evening!
What safety measures do you take during the session?
Safety is our number one priority. we provide professional-grade FFP3 respiratory masks, protective coveralls, and gloves for every participant. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas, and our instructors are trained to ensure everyone uses the equipment correctly. We make sure the environment is safe and fun for all ages.
Can children participate in the workshop?
Yes, our workshops are a popular choice for families visiting Tokyo! We generally recommend a minimum age of 6 years old so children have the hand strength to press the spray nozzles. It is a fantastic way for families to bond and create a colorful travel memory together in the heart of the city.
How long does the workshop experience last?
A standard tourist workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of your masterpiece. If you have a very large group or specific timing needs, we can often adjust the duration to fit your Tokyo itinerary.
Are all the materials included in the price?
Everything you need is included in the price! We provide the spray cans in a wide variety of colors, caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective gear, and the surface you will be painting on. You just need to bring your creativity and energy. We even have backup artists ready to ensure your session goes ahead as planned.
Do I need to pay in advance to book?
No, you do not need to pay anything upfront. We believe in the quality of our service, so you only pay after the workshop is completed. This gives you peace of mind when booking your Tokyo activities. We want you to focus on the art and the experience without worrying about early payments.
