How it works
- The warm welcome: Meet your pro graffiti instructor at the designated Geneva street art spot and get a quick intro to the tools of the trade.
- Safety first: Suit up in our protective gear and learn the essential safety rules for using professional spray cans.
- Master the 'can control': Practice basic lines, dots, and fades on a practice wall to get a feel for the pressure and distance.
- Sketching the vision: Work with your artist to sketch out your design ideas on paper or directly onto the wall with light spray.
- Filling and fading: Learn how to fill in large areas efficiently and how to create those iconic street art gradients and colour blends.
- The outline: This is where the magic happens! Trace your shapes with a crisp 'outliner' to make your design pop.
- Shading and highlights: Add 3D effects and highlights to give your artwork depth and a professional finish.
- The final tag: Every artist needs a signature. Create your own unique 'tag' to sign off on your collective or individual masterpiece.

Do I need to have any artistic skills to participate?
Absolutely no experience is required! Our Geneva workshops are designed for complete beginners. Our professional street artists will guide you through every step, from how to hold the spray can to advanced shading techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It's all about having fun and expressing your personality through art, rather than being a 'perfect' artist from day one.
Is the spray paint safe and do you provide protective gear?
Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 masks to protect you from fumes, as well as protective suits and gloves to keep your clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas, and our instructors are trained to ensure everyone uses the equipment safely. While the paint is permanent on the walls, we make sure it doesn't end up on you! Please do wear comfortable old shoes though.
Where exactly in Geneva do the workshops take place?
In Geneva, we typically host workshops at designated legal graffiti zones or 'Hall of Fame' walls. These are vibrant public spaces where street art is encouraged and celebrated. Once you book, we provide the exact GPS coordinates. If you have a private venue or are looking for an indoor mobile setup (using canvases), we can also bring the workshop directly to your location or office.
How long does a typical graffiti workshop last?
A standard public graffiti experience in Geneva usually lasts between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This includes the safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of your artwork. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where you have enough time to get into the flow without getting too tired. For larger groups or corporate brand activations, we can adjust the timing to fit your specific schedule.
What is included in the price of the workshop?
We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day! This includes a wide variety of professional spray paint colours, caps (nozzles) for different line widths, protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the surface to paint on (either a legal wall or canvases). You just need to bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some water to stay hydrated while you work on your masterpiece.
What happens if it rains on the day of my workshop?
Geneva weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered! If light rain is forecast, we often paint under shelters or bridges that offer protection. If the weather is truly unworkable, we can move the session indoors using large canvases and low-odour paints, or we can reschedule to a better day. We also have backup artists available to ensure your event always goes ahead as planned.
