Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

No prior artistic skill is needed at all! Our Alexandria graffiti workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional local artists will guide you through everything from how to hold the spray can to layering colors and creating sharp outlines. We focus on fun and expression, so whether you can barely draw a stick figure or you're a budding Picasso, you'll walk away with something you're proud of.

Is the workshop safe for everyone?

We take safety very seriously. Every participant is provided with high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks to filter out fumes. Since our workshops in Alexandria often take place outdoors or in well-ventilated spaces, air quality is usually excellent. Our professional instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can to ensure every person stays safe and clean throughout the session.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

You should wear comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls or aprons, graffiti can sometimes be a bit messy, and a stray drop of spray paint is hard to get out of designer fabrics! Closed-toe shoes are a must for safety and stability. We recommend dressing for the Alexandrian weather, especially if we are working at an outdoor legal wall.

How does the 'pay later' policy work?

We believe in flexibility and building trust with our community. That’s why you don’t have to pay anything upfront when you book your Alexandria street art experience. You can settle the payment after the workshop is finished and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. We accept various payment methods to make it as easy as possible for you to get creative with us.

How long does a session usually last?

A standard public art workshop in Alexandria typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of Egyptian street art, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on time for you to complete your masterpiece. If you are part of a larger group or a brand activation event, we can adjust the duration to fit your specific schedule.

Can you host the workshop at my own location?

Absolutely! While we love bringing people to Alexandria's iconic street art spots, we are also fully mobile. If you have a private venue, a backyard, or an office space with proper ventilation or outdoor access, we can bring the entire graffiti setup to you. We handle all the prep and cleanup, so you can focus entirely on the creative process without any stress.
