Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be an artist or have previous experience?
Absolutely no experience is required! Most of our guests in Ghent have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert teachers who will guide you through the basics of can control, nozzle pressure, and layering. We focus on making the process accessible and fun for everyone, from absolute beginners to those with a creative spark. You will be amazed at what you can create in just a few hours with our guidance.
What materials are included in the workshop?
We provide everything you need for a complete street art experience. This includes professional-grade spray paint in a wide variety of vibrant colours, gloves, and protective masks to keep you safe from fumes. Depending on the workshop format, we also provide canvases or large wooden boards to work on. Just make sure to wear old clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting some accidental paint on!
Is the graffiti workshop safe?
Safety is our number one priority in Ghent. We provide high-quality respiratory masks and nitrile gloves to all participants. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designated legal graffiti zones. Our instructors are trained to manage the group safely, ensuring that everyone maintains a safe distance while spraying and follows proper handling procedures for the equipment at all times.
What should I wear to the session?
While we provide protective gear like gloves, we highly recommend wearing "work clothes" or items you no longer care about. Spray paint is permanent and can travel in the wind, so it’s possible for tiny speckles to land on your shoes or trousers. Ghent's creative spirit is best enjoyed when you aren't worried about ruining your favourite designer outfit. Think old trainers and comfortable outdoor wear.
Is there a minimum or maximum group size?
We offer great flexibility for our Ghent workshops! Generally, we require a minimum of 5-8 people to start a group session. However, we also cater to massive groups of 100+ for corporate events or festivals. Because we have a large team of backup artists across Belgium, we can almost always scale our team to match your group size. If you have a specific number in mind, just let us know!
What happens if it rains on the day?
If the Belgian weather doesn't play ball, we have several options. For small groups, we can often move to a covered outdoor location. For larger events, we try to arrange indoor spaces with proper ventilation or use water-based spray paints that are safer for confined areas. We always have backup artists ready to reschedule or adapt, so your creative plans won't be ruined by a bit of rain.
