How it works

  1. The meet and greet: Show up at our Dublin street art hub where you’ll meet our local pro artists and get a quick rundown of what the day looks like.
  2. Gear up: We’ll suit you up in protective overalls, gloves, and masks. Safety first, style second!
  3. Master the 'can': Learn the basics of spray paint physics. Our pros show you how to control the pressure, change caps for different effects, and avoid those pesky drips.
  4. Sketching your soul: Grabbing some paper and markers, you'll sketch out your design ideas with guidance from the artists to make sure they'll work well on a wall or canvas.
  5. The outline: Now the real fun starts! You’ll head to your workspace and start 'ghosting' your design onto the surface.
  6. Filling and fading: Learn the techniques of 'filling in' and creating smooth gradients or 'fades' to give your work depth and character.
  7. The final cut: Use sharp outlines and highlights to make your graffiti 'pop' off the surface. This is where your masterwork really comes to life!
  8. Gallery walk: Take a step back, admire the group’s work, and snap some photos for the 'gram. You've officially made your mark on Dublin!

Frequently asked questions

How long does a typical graffiti workshop in Dublin last?

Most of our workshops last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives you plenty of time to learn the basic techniques, practice your lines, and work on your final masterpiece without feeling rushed. We find it’s the perfect 'sweet spot' for staying energized and focused while creating something you're actually proud of!

Do I need to have any artistic skills to participate?

Absolutely not! Our Dublin workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned doodlers. Our pro artists will guide you through every step, starting with how to hold the spray can. You’ll be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive with just a few tips on 'caps' and pressure control.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks. We also use professional-grade spray paint and conduct our sessions in well-ventilated areas. Our artists give a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring everyone has a blast while staying completely safe.

What should I wear to my street art experience?

We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of 'character' on. While we provide protective overalls, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or sneakers! Think 'comfy and casual' rather than your Sunday best, and you'll be ready to paint.

What is included in the price of the workshop?

We’ve got you covered! We provide all the professional spray cans in a huge range of colours, various 'caps' for different line widths, protective gear (gloves, masks, and overalls), and the canvases or surfaces you'll be painting on. Just bring your enthusiasm and maybe a few ideas for what you'd like to create.

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

Dublin weather can be a bit 'grand' one minute and 'pouring' the next! If we are scheduled for an outdoor session and the weather doesn't cooperate, we usually have backup indoor locations or can reschedule. Thanks to our team of backup artists, we almost never have to cancel a session entirely.

How do I book and when do I need to pay?

Booking is easy and stress-free. You can request a quote online, and we’ll get back to you with the details. The best part? There’s no upfront payment required! You only pay after the workshop is finished and you’re 100% satisfied with the experience. We make the process as smooth as Irish butter!
