Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our Faro workshops are designed for everyone from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic lines and shapes before moving on to more complex techniques. You will be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive under our expert guidance in the sunny Algarve atmosphere.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need for a fantastic session. This includes high-quality spray cans in a wide range of vibrant colours, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. Depending on the workshop style, we also provide canvases or designated wall space. Just bring your enthusiasm and some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a little dusty!

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-pressure spray paint which is easier to control and provide professional-grade respiratory masks and gloves for all participants. Our instructors are highly experienced and will give a full safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We ensure the environment is well-ventilated and that everyone follows proper handling procedures throughout.

What should I wear to the workshop?

Wear comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide protective overalls, it is always better to be safe than sorry. Sturdy, closed-toe shoes are a must. Since Faro is quite sunny, we also recommend wearing sunscreen if we are working at an outdoor location to keep you protected while you create your masterpiece.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard public art workshop in Faro typically lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the final creation of your artwork. If you have a specific timeframe in mind for a larger group or event, we can often customise the duration to fit your schedule perfectly.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

Yes! While we often work on large collaborative murals, many of our Faro workshops include the option to work on individual canvases. This means you can take your unique piece of Algarve-inspired street art home with you to hang on your wall as a permanent memory of your creative experience in Portugal.
