Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for every student. Our professional artists lead the session with a comprehensive safety briefing, ensuring everyone uses the spray cans correctly. We also use low-odour, high-quality paints to ensure a comfortable environment for all participants during their creative journey in Uppsala.

Where in Uppsala do the school workshops take place?

We are completely flexible! We can host the workshop at your school premises (outdoors) or at a dedicated legal street art location in Uppsala. If we come to your school, we take care of all the floor and wall protection to ensure the site remains clean and tidy. Most schools prefer the convenience of having us come to them!

How long does a typical school workshop last?

Our workshops are customisable but generally last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for an introduction to graffiti history, practicing basic techniques, and completing a final masterpiece. We can easily adapt the timing to fit into your school’s existing timetable or double-period schedule without any hassle.

What materials do we need to provide?

Everything is included in the price! We provide the spray paint, caps, safety gear (masks, suits, gloves), and the 'canvas' (which can be large boards, plastic wrap, or even a permanent wall). You don't need to worry about a thing; our artists arrive fully prepared with all the professional tools needed for a successful session.

What if some students aren't naturally 'artistic'?

Don't worry, graffiti is for everyone! Our artists are experts at guiding beginners. We start with simple lines and shapes before moving on to more complex 'pieces'. We focus on the process and the fun of creation rather than perfection. Every student will walk away with something they are proud of and a new-found confidence in their creativity.

How does the payment process work for schools?

No upfront payment is required when you book with Graffitifun. We believe in our service so much that you only pay after the workshop is completed. This makes the administration process much easier for schools and provides peace of mind that you'll receive the high-quality, high-energy experience we promise. Just request a quote to get started!

Can the workshop help with student team building?

Yes, graffiti is an excelente tool for team building. We often design workshops where students work in small groups to complete a large mural. This requires communication, planning, and shared execution. It's a fantastic way to break down social barriers and encourage students who might not usually collaborate to work together towards a colourful common goal.
