What to expect

Meet your guide near the Sternschanze station in early afternoon to begin the first leg of the tour, a 1-hour walk through the district of Sternschanze, then closer to Sankt Pauli, then be lead through Katoviertel and on to the city center. Along the way you will see all different styles of street art and graffiti. The guide will also explain the historical backgrounds of the areas as you get insight into the subcultures, and learn about gentrification and other political movements. The guides are experienced in guiding and workshop-running, and are English or German natives to provide you the best experience. After getting some inspiration from the streets, you will then start your 2-hour workshop in an old factory building at Gängeviertel, a former squatter building in the city center. Experienced street artists will show you the different graffiti and street art techniques. Using cutters, markers, and spray-paint you will create your first street-art piece that you can carry back home (or leave it somewhere in the streets). The workshop and end of the tour is close to metro station Gänsemarkt, right in the city's center.
