How it works

  1. Intro & meet-up: We start with a warm welcome and an introduction to the rich history of street art and graffiti culture.
  2. Gear up: Safety first! We get everyone suited up in protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep the paint where it belongs.
  3. The basics: Learn the essential 'can control' techniques, including how to create thin lines, thick fills, and smooth gradients.
  4. Sketching your style: Grab some paper and pencils to plan your design or tag before we move to the big wall or canvas.
  5. First layers: Start applying your base colours. This is where you get a real feel for the pressure and flow of the spray cans.
  6. Details & outlines: Our pro artists show you how to 'cut' your lines and add those sharp outlines that make graffiti pop.
  7. Highlights & flares: Add the finishing touches! We’ll teach you how to add light effects and personal flourishes to your work.
  8. The big reveal: Step back and admire your masterpiece! We’ll take professional group photos of you and your crew with your art.
  9. Tidy up: We handle all the cleanup, leaving the spot exactly as we found it (except for the amazing new art, of course!).

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be artistic or have experience to join?

Absolutely no experience is needed! Our Pretoria graffiti workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional street artists will guide you through every step, from how to hold the spray can to advanced layering techniques. We provide a safe, supportive environment where you can let your creativity run wild without any judgment. It is all about having fun and learning something new!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paints and conduct our sessions in well-ventilated outdoor or large indoor spaces. Our artists provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring everyone has a blast while staying completely safe.

What should I wear to the workshop in Pretoria?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and old shoes that you do not mind getting a little bit of 'character' on. While we provide protective overalls and gear, spray paint is permanent and sometimes finds its way onto sneakers. Think 'painter-chic' rather than your Sunday best! We provide everything else you need, including paint, caps, and canvases.

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard public art workshop in Pretoria typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of your final masterpiece. If you are looking for a more intensive experience or a shorter 'taster' session for a festival, we can definitely customise the duration to suit your schedule.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you are a solo creative looking for a 1-on-1 session, a small group of friends, or a massive corporate team of 100+ people, we can accommodate you. For larger groups, we bring in additional professional artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention and guidance throughout the creative process. No group is too big or too small!

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

Weather in 'Jacaranda City' can be unpredictable, but we have you covered. We have access to several sheltered and indoor locations across Pretoria where we can spray safely. If the weather turns really bad and we cannot find a suitable indoor alternative, we are happy to reschedule your session to a sunnier day at no extra cost to you.

Do I need to pay upfront for the booking?

We believe in a 'fun-first' approach! At Graffitifun, we do not require any upfront payments to secure your booking. You can book your session, get everything organised, and only pay once the workshop is complete. This takes the stress out of planning and ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience before any money changes hands.
