Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide all students with FFP2 or FFP3 grade masks, protective gloves, and overalls to keep their uniforms clean. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially prepared indoor spaces. Our professional artists are trained to supervise groups closely, ensuring that the spray cans are used correctly and responsibly throughout the entire session.

How long does a typical school workshop last?

Our school workshops in Manta are incredibly flexible! A standard educational session usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for an introduction to street art history, a briefing on safety and techniques, individual practice, and the creation of a large-scale collaborative mural. If you have a specific school timetable to stick to, we can easily adjust the duration.

Do students need any prior artistic experience?

Absolutely not! We believe everyone has a creative spark. Our artists start with the very basics—how to hold a can, how to control pressure, and how to create simple lines. We guide the students step-by-step, so even those who have never picked up a brush before will walk away feeling like a pro. It’s all about the experience and the process!

What materials does Graffitifun provide?

We bring everything needed for a successful creative day! This includes high-quality spray paint in a rainbow of colours, caps/nozzles for different effects, protective gear (masks, gloves, suits), and the 'canvas' (which could be mobile walls, wooden panels, or a designated school wall). You just need to provide the space and the enthusiastic students—we handle all the logistical heavy lifting for you.

Can you host the workshop at our school premises in Manta?

We are very mobile! While we have fixed locations available, we love coming to schools. If you have a courtyard, a sports field, or a large hall with good ventilation, we can set up our mobile graffiti walls right there on your campus. This makes it much easier for teachers to organise, as there are no transport costs or extra permissions needed for a field trip.

What happens if an artist is unavailable on the day?

We pride ourselves on reliability. Unlike solo freelancers, we have a large team of professional artists across Ecuador. In the rare event that an artist falls ill, we have a dedicated backup system to ensure another pro steps in. Your school event is guaranteed to go ahead as planned, giving you peace of mind during the planning process.

How does the 'no upfront payment' policy work?

The 'pay after' policy is one of our favourite features for schools. We don't require any upfront deposits or pre-payments. Once the workshop is finished and you are 100% happy with the result and the smiles on your students' faces, we will send over the invoice for payment. This makes the administrative process much smoother for school bursars and departments.

Das Erlebnis

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your school in Manta? It’s more than just art; it’s a powerful tool for development. Here is why students and teachers love what we do: ✨

Team building: Nothing brings a class together like collaborating on a massive, permanent (or temporary) mural.
Confidence boost: Seeing a giant piece of art they helped create gives students an incredible sense of achievement.
Inclusive learning: Graffiti is a great equaliser; it appeals to students who might struggle with traditional 'fine art' or academic subjects.

Zero stress: From providing the gear to our 'pay later' policy, we make the admin side a breeze for teachers.
Safe & clean: We provide top-tier safety gear and ensure the only thing that gets painted is the intended target!

Schritt für Schritt

Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy intro about the roots of graffiti and how it evolved into modern street art.
First sketches: Students grab paper and pencils to brainstorm their tags and designs, learning the importance of composition.
Safety briefing: We kit everyone out in protective gear and explain the golden rules of using spray cans safely and respectfully.
The first spray: Under the guidance of our pros, students head to the wall to practice basic techniques like lines, dots, and fills.
Group mural design: The class works together to sketch a large-scale concept on the main wall, often focusing on a school theme or value.
Colouring & filling: This is where the magic happens! Students use a wide palette of colours to bring their collective vision to life.
Adding the details: We teach the tricks of the trade—adding outlines, highlights, and shadows to make the artwork pop.
The grand reveal: We take a step back to admire the finished masterpiece and snap some epic group photos.
Clean up: We pack up all the gear and leave the site tidy, leaving only the incredible memories (and the art!) behind.
