Stap voor stap

  1. Introduction and safety: Meet your local Athens artist and get fitted with your protective gear, including masks and gloves.
  2. Can control basics: Learn the 'anatomy' of a spray can, including how different caps (nozzles) change the width and texture of your lines.
  3. Sketching your concept: Grab some paper or go straight to the wall to outline your ideas, focusing on letter structure and flow.
  4. Outline and fill: Start spraying! Use your chosen colours to fill in your shapes, learning how to keep the can moving for a smooth finish.
  5. Adding shadows and 3D: Discover the secrets of depth by adding shadows and '3D' effects to make your graffiti pop off the wall.
  6. The power of highlights: Use 'flashes' and light spots to give your artwork that professional, polished look.
  7. Final cut: Re-outline your work (the 'power line') to sharpen the edges and make the whole piece stand out.
  8. Group photo and cleanup: Step back, admire your work, take some epic photos for the 'gram, and help us leave the site tidy.

Reaching your Athens workshop

Arriving for your graffiti workshop in Athens is straightforward. If travelling by train, Athens' main railway station, Larissis Station, provides connections across Greece. From there, public transport such as the Athens Metro or buses can take you to your workshop location. The Athens Metro is an efficient way to navigate the city, with lines connecting major points of interest.

For those travelling by car, Athens is served by motorways like the Attiki Odos, which provides access from various parts of the Attica region. While central Athens can be busy, there are public parking facilities available in many neighbourhoods. If arriving by coach, designated drop-off and pick-up points can be arranged. Athens International Airport Eleftherios Venizelos is the primary air gateway, with excellent public transport links, including express buses and metro services, connecting it to the city centre.

Lokale cultuur

Athens' vibrant street art scene

Athens has a compelling relationship with street art. While not officially a 'graffiti capital' in the same vein as some other European cities, its urban landscape is undeniably rich with murals and tags. From political statements to abstract designs, the walls of Athens tell many stories. Areas like Exarcheia and Anafiotika are particularly known for their vibrant street art, offering an open-air gallery experience.

This organic artistic expression contributes to the city's unique character. Our workshops embrace this spirit, providing a platform for participants to understand the techniques and intentions behind street art. It is about engaging with the city's living canvas, appreciating the artistry, and perhaps even contributing to its evolving visual narrative in a responsible and creative way.

Prijzen

Our graffiti workshops in Athens are affordable and flexible, with prices ranging from €20 to €45 per person. The final cost depends on your group size, the chosen location, and any specific requirements you might have.

To ensure we provide the best experience for your specific needs, we don't charge anything upfront. You only pay once the workshop is finished and you're happy with the results!
