Frequently asked questions

Do I need any prior art experience to join?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Nagoya have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you how to hold the can, control pressure, and create clean lines. You'll be amazed at how quickly you'll go from a nervous beginner to creating a vibrant piece of street art you can be proud of. We make the learning process super relaxed and fun!

Is it safe and do you provide protective gear?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable ponchos to keep your clothes clean. We use low-odor, high-quality spray paints. However, we do recommend wearing comfortable shoes and clothes you wouldn't mind getting a tiny speck of paint on, just in case! Our artists also provide a full safety briefing before any paint starts flying.

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

While Nagoya is known for its beautiful weather, we have backup plans! We work with several semi-covered outdoor locations and indoor studios across the city. If the weather looks truly uncooperative, we can usually pivot to one of these spots or reschedule the session. You won't miss out on your creative experience just because of a little rain.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Standard workshops in Nagoya typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for introductions, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of your masterpiece. If you are looking for a shorter 'teaser' session or a more intensive deep-dive, we can definitely customize the duration to fit your group's schedule.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

Yes! For our public art experiences, you generally work on a high-quality canvas or a specialized board that you can take home with you once it's dry. It makes for a fantastic, unique souvenir of your time in Nagoya. For larger group murals, we can discuss options for professional photography or even arranging a permanent wall space if required!

What is the minimum age for participants?

We recommend a minimum age of 8 years old for our standard workshops, as the spray cans require a certain amount of hand strength and coordination. For younger children, we can modify the program using water-based markers or stencils. It’s a brilliant activity for families, school trips, or kids' birthday parties looking for something totally different and active.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you are a solo traveler looking for a private lesson or a large corporate team of 100+ people, we can accommodate you. For very large groups, we bring in multiple professional artists to ensure everyone gets enough 1-on-1 guidance. This makes our workshops perfect for everything from small bachelor parties to massive brand activation events.
