Where groups meet in Dunedin

Our workshops in Dunedin are typically held in accessible locations that provide suitable spaces for creative activities. We often utilise venues within areas like the central city, close to the Octagon, or in industrial zones that offer the necessary space and flexibility. These locations ensure easy access for participants while providing a practical setting for handling art materials.

For groups coming from outside the immediate city centre, areas such as South Dunedin or Mornington might offer suitable venues. When planning, we consider proximity to public transport routes and parking availability to ensure convenience for all attendees, whether they are local residents or visitors exploring the city.

Passo a passo

  1. Arrival and kick off: Meet your pro artist guide at the location and get introduced to the colourful world of street art culture.
  2. Safety first: Get geared up in your protective suit, gloves, and mask while we walk you through the essential safety rules for using spray cans.
  3. Master the can: Start with 'low pressure' practice. You will learn how to control line thickness, create dots, and manage the pressure of the spray.
  4. Sketching your concept: Use paper or the wall itself to map out your design. Our artists help you with proportions and letter styling.
  5. Fill and flare: Learn the 'fill in' technique to add vibrant colours to your piece and start experimenting with gradients and fades.
  6. The outline: This is where the magic happens! Use a contrasting colour to make your graffiti 'pop' with clean, sharp edges.
  7. Detailing and highlights: Add the final touches like 3D shadows, shines, and 'force fields' to give your artwork that professional New Zealand street style.
  8. Photos and wrap up: Stand back and admire your work. We will take plenty of photos of your crew in front of the finished masterpiece!

Reaching your Dunedin workshop

Reaching your workshop in Dunedin is straightforward. The city does not have a main railway station for passenger services; however, local bus services operate extensively throughout the city, connecting most suburbs to the central area. The central bus hub is a good reference point for public transport arrivals.

For those travelling by road, State Highway 1 runs directly through Dunedin, making it easily accessible from both the north and south. If you are arriving from further afield, Dunedin International Airport (DUD) is located approximately 30 kilometres south-west of the city centre, with shuttle and taxi services available. Parking for private vehicles and coaches can be arranged at or near our workshop venues, depending on the specific location chosen for your group.

Cultura local

Dunedin's evolving street art scene

Dunedin has a growing appreciation for public art and murals, enriching its streetscapes. While not historically a graffiti Mecca, the city has seen an increase in commissioned street art pieces and murals in recent years, particularly in areas like the warehouse precinct and central city lanes. These works contribute to the city's artistic identity, often reflecting local stories or celebrating New Zealand's unique natural environment.

The city's vibrant student population also contributes to a dynamic and evolving creative scene. Our workshops offer a chance to explore urban art within this context, encouraging participants to understand the distinction between legal art and unauthorised tagging, and to appreciate the skill involved in creating large scale street art.
