We had a great time during this hands on experience! My boys loved the freedom to just create! It was a fun way to spend a free afternoon together, and our instructor was very supportive!

Make your own "tag"

Absolutely the best time! SHAK is the BEST. He taught us about different types of spray paints, technics, and how you can't mess up when creating a piece. He is a talented artist and is passionate about his craft. My 15 year old really liked learning about the art of graffiti and Shak took time and they came up with a unique tag he can use. Family fun and now we examine the graffiti we see and grade it!

Fun experience

This was a good intro to graffiti art with a little history and hands on opportunity. We just wished the artist let us do more. We initially got to practice making bubble letters. We had 4 people in our group but she only let 2 of us spray at a time (maybe that is typical). When it was time to create our group’s word, she did most of it for us and we only got to fill in the letters and background. My boys were disappointed and mentioned that they didn’t get to do that much.

Water based paints are awesome!

A fun introduction to the art of graffiti. Great teacher went through the steps informatively. Perhaps a bit more time for experimentation at the end would be great, especially for teens.
