Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Uppsala have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists break down the process into easy-to-follow steps, from basic nozzle control to advanced layering techniques. We provide a safe, supportive environment where your creativity can flourish without any pressure. You'll be amazed at the masterpiece you can create in just one session with the right guidance! 🎨

Is the graffiti workshop safe for beginners and kids?

Safety is our top priority. we provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. The workshop takes place in well-ventilated areas or designated legal graffiti walls in Uppsala. Our artist instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring everyone knows how to handle the equipment responsibly and comfortably. ✨

How long does the graffiti experience actually take?

In Uppsala, sessions typically last between 90 minutes and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, sketching your ideas, practicing your technique on 'trial walls', and finally completing your main piece. We move at a pace that keeps the energy high but allows you enough time to get those fine details just right on your canvas or wall space.

What should I wear to my graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on (just in case!). While we provide full protective gear including overalls, it's best to be practical. Since some locations are outdoors, please check the Uppsala weather forecast and dress in layers if it's looking a bit chilly. We’ll provide everything else you need! 👟

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

We've got you covered. If the Swedish weather doesn't cooperate, we usually have access to indoor locations or sheltered creative spaces in Uppsala. If an outdoor event is totally rained out and no indoor alternative is available, we can reschedule your session or look at alternative dates. Your creative experience won't be dampened by a few clouds! ☁️

What is included in the workshop price?

Everything is included in the price! You’ll get a wide variety of professional spray paint colours, various nozzle types (caps) for different effects, protective clothing, and the surface you’ll be painting on. For tourists, we often use high-quality canvases so you have a unique, handmade souvenir of your time in Uppsala to take home with you. No hidden costs here! 🏆

Are there minimum or maximum group sizes?🎉

Usually, we require a minimum group size of 5 to 10 people to get the best energy going. However, if you are a smaller family or a couple visiting Uppsala, feel free to contact us anyway. We can often merge smaller groups or find a special slot for you. For larger groups like tour parties or student trips, we have the capacity to host up to 100+ people simultaneously!
