We are a Lisbon-based street art collective turned cultural platform, setting up sustainable street art experiences as the first ones in town. We work at the intersection of public space, community, and creativity - bringing together local artists, neighbourhood initiatives, and curious people passing through to make the city's walls mean something.
An enthusiastic and passionate team from different parts of the world: our work is hands-on and grounded: from unique guided walking street art tours, graffiti and creative workshops and cultural interventions in public space. From the roots of graffiti to the multitude of the urban art scene, wrapped up with historical and local storytelling. Every day on request; for every occasion; for every budget; ánd in different languages [Portuguese, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch].
The approach is artivistic, intercultural, impact-driven, inclusive and research-based - which is a long way of saying we care deeply about why something goes on a wall, not just what it looks like. We believe public space belongs to the people in it. We believe a neighbourhood's identity can be reclaimed, re-read, and rewritten. We believe culture isn't just exhibited - it's lived, sprayed, walked, and felt.
Our ideal street art formula goes around and about, above and beyond:
"Culture is written on the walls." - J. Armstrong
- We're just the ones holding the cans ánd the brushes.-
The hands-on graffiti workshop lasts approximately 30–45 minutes. During the session, you’ll learn the basics of spray painting and stencils before creating your own graffiti-inspired design on a totebag to take home.
Not at all! The workshop is designed for complete beginners. Your guide will introduce you to the basic techniques and help you throughout the process. More experienced artists are also welcome to experiment and develop their own style.
You’ll receive your own totebag, which you’ll customise using spray paint and stencils. You can create your own design and take the finished piece home as a unique, reusable souvenir from Lisbon.
Yes. We provide the totebag, spray paint, stencils and other materials needed for the workshop. Just bring your creativity! We recommend wearing clothes and shoes that you don’t mind getting a little paint on.
The experience combines a guided walk through Lisbon’s graffiti and street-art scene with a hands-on workshop. The walk introduces you to the culture, artists, styles and techniques behind Lisbon’s walls, before you put some of that inspiration into practice during the 30–45 minute workshop.
