How it works

  1. Welcome and intro: Meet your pro graffiti tutor at one of Antwerp's cool street art spots. We'll start with a brief history of the local scene.
  2. Safety first: Get geared up! We provide your mask, gloves, and overalls. Safety is key before we touch a single can.
  3. The basics: Learn how to hold the can, control the pressure, and master the 'cap' system to create different line widths.
  4. Sketching your design: Use chalk or light spray to map out your masterpiece on the wall or canvas. Our artists will help refine your ideas.
  5. Filling and fading: Discover the secrets of 'filling in' and creating smooth colour gradients (fades) that make graffiti pop.
  6. The outline (The 'Powerline'): This is where the magic happens. Trace your design with a sharp outline to make it stand out.
  7. Details and highlights: Add those final 'flares', highlights, and 'force-fields' (outer glows) to give your art a professional finish.
  8. Photo op: Strike a pose with your finished work! It's time to document your contribution to Antwerp's vibrant street culture. 🔥
  9. Clean up: We handle all the disposal of cans and materials, leaving the site exactly as we found it.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have any artistic skills to participate?

No previous artistic experience is required at all! Our Antwerp-based graffiti artists are experts at breaking down complex techniques into simple, manageable steps for absolute beginners. We focus on having fun and being creative rather than technical perfection. Whether you think you can't draw a stick figure or you're a budding Picasso, we’ll guide you through the process until you’re proud of your work. ✨

Is the workshop safe and what protective gear is provided?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 respiratory masks to protect you from fumes, as well as disposable gloves and protective overalls to keep your clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designated legal graffiti zones in Antwerp. Our instructors are also trained to ensure all participants use the spray cans safely and responsibly throughout the session. 🛡️

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 full-body protective overalls and gloves, graffiti paint is notoriously stubborn once it lands on fabric! Think old trainers and casual wear. Since many of our Antwerp street art sessions happen outdoors, please check the weather forecast and dress appropriately for the temperature. 👟

How long does a typical street art session last?

Standard public workshops in Antwerp typically last between 1.5 to 2 hours. This provides enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, plenty of practice, and the creation of your final masterpiece. If you are booking for a larger group or a specific event like a bachelor party or corporate day, we can adjust the duration to fit your schedule. ⏳

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

Belgium's weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered! Many of our Antwerp locations have sheltered areas. In the event of heavy rain or extreme weather, we can often relocate to a covered spot or reschedule the session. We also have backup artists available to ensure your event goes ahead smoothly. We always strive to ensure the weather doesn't dampen your creative spirit. 🌦️

Can I book a private workshop for a group of friends?

Absolutely! Our street art experiences are very popular for private groups, including birthday parties, hen/stag dos, and team-building events. We can host these at various legal graffiti spots around Antwerp or even come to your location if you have a suitable legal workspace. Private bookings allow for a more tailored experience where you can focus on specific themes or collaborative group murals. 🎨

Is there an age limit for the graffiti experience? 👫

Most of our public workshops are designed for participants aged 8 and up. Spray cans can be a bit heavy and require a certain level of finger strength and coordination. For younger children in Antwerp, we often recommend our dedicated 'Kids Parties' format, which uses slightly different techniques and materials suited to smaller hands, ensuring everyone has a blast while staying safe. 🎈
