How it works

  1. Intro & Safety: We start with a warm welcome and a quick briefing on how to use the spray cans safely and effectively.
  2. Tagging Basics: Learn the history of 'the tag' and start practicing your own unique signature on paper or practice boards.
  3. Can Control: Our artists show you how to control pressure, distance, and angle to create different lines and effects.
  4. Sketching the Design: You'll map out your big idea on the canvas using light colours, guided by our professional team.
  5. Filling & Fading: This is where the magic happens! Learn how to fill in your letters and create smooth colour gradients.
  6. Outlining & Details: Bring your piece to life by adding sharp outlines and those all-important 'highlights' or 3D effects.
  7. The Masterpiece Reveal: Step back and admire the collective work or your individual creation—it's always a 'wow' moment!
  8. Photos & Clean up: We take plenty of snaps of your work and ensure the area is left tidy, leaving only the art behind.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our Kananga workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a straight line to seasoned artists. Our professional facilitators guide you through every step, starting with basic spray can control and safety. We focus on the 'fun' in Graffitifun, ensuring you feel confident and supported while you explore your creative side. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before they join us!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for beginners and children?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paints and conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces. Our artists also provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone starts spraying, ensuring a secure environment for kids, teens, and adults alike to enjoy the street art experience without worry.

What should I wear and bring to the session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can be a messy business when you're having this much fun. Avoid your brand-new designer trainers and opt for something practical. We provide all the professional materials, including a wide range of paint colours, caps, and canvases for you to work on.

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard public art workshop in Kananga typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of your masterpiece. If you are looking for a more intensive experience or a shorter 'taster' session for a festival, we can easily customise the duration to fit your specific schedule and needs.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We are very flexible! We can host workshops for small private groups of 5-10 people, or manage large-scale public art events with hundreds of participants. For larger groups, we bring in additional backup artists to ensure everyone gets personalised attention and guidance. Whether it's a small birthday gathering or a massive community festival in the Lulua province, we have the logistics and staff to make it a success.

What happens if I need to cancel or change my booking?

We understand that plans can change. One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'no upfront payment' policy—you pay after the workshop is completed! Additionally, we have a network of backup artists available, meaning your event is protected against last-minute cancellations. If you need to reschedule or cancel, just let us know as early as possible so we can adjust our artist's diary for the Kananga region.

Can we keep the artwork we create during the workshop?

We love making art accessible! Depending on the arrangement, you can often take your individual canvas home with you. For community murals or larger public art projects, the artwork remains as a beautiful legacy for the neighborhood to enjoy. If you're doing a workshop at a school or office, we can help you find the perfect spot to display the finished pieces to keep that creative energy flowing long after we've left.
