Do the children need any prior art experience?

Our after-school sessions in Dresden are specifically designed for beginners! Most of our students have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, including safety, pressure control, and simple lines, before moving on to more complex techniques. We provide a supportive environment where every young artist feels confident to experiment and learn at their own pace.

Is it safe for children to use spray cans?

Safety is our absolute number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas or legal outdoor street art spots in Dresden. All our instructors are experienced professionals who supervise the group closely to ensure everyone uses the equipment correctly and stays safe while having fun.

What should students wear to the workshop?

Ideally, students should wear comfortable, older clothes and sturdy trainers. Even though we provide full-body protective suits, graffiti paint is permanent once it hits fabric, so it's best not to wear anything brand new or expensive! We'll provide all the professional gear like masks and gloves, so you just need to bring your enthusiasm and some creative energy.

Can they take their artwork home?

Absolutely! While we love collaborating on large-scale murals, every student gets to create their own individual piece on a high-quality canvas or board. This means they have a physical memory of their after-school adventure to take home and hang on their bedroom wall. It's a great way for them to show off their new skills to family and friends.

How long does a typical session last?

Our after-school workshops in Dresden usually last between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This timeframe is perfect for maintaining high energy levels while giving everyone enough time to learn the techniques, sketch their ideas, and complete their final masterpiece. We can also adapt the duration to fit into specific school timetables or community centre schedules if required.

Where do the workshops actually take place?

While we provide canvases, we can also arrange for the group to work on a larger legal wall or a collaborative project if the school or venue permits. Many schools in Dresden invite us to brighten up their playground walls or boredom-inducing hallways. If you have a specific surface in mind, just let us know and we can integrate it into the workshop plan!

The experience

Why choose Graffitifun for your after-school programme in Dresden? We don't just teach kids how to paint; we give them a platform to be themselves! 🤘 Here’s why we’re the top choice for schools and parents:

Confidence Boost: Seeing a vibrant piece of art come to life from their own hands provides an incredible sense of achievement. 🏆
Team Spirit: We often work on collaborative murals where communication and cooperation are the keys to success. 🤝
Professional Mentorship: Our artists are active in the scene and love sharing their passion with the younger generation. 🎭
Zero Stress for Schools: We handle everything from the protective gear to the cleanup. You just provide the space! 🧹

Reliability: With our backup artist system, your workshop will never be cancelled last minute. We’re always ready to rock! 🎸

Step by step

Introduction & Safety: We start with a brief history of street art and a vital safety briefing regarding mask usage and spray can handling.
The Masterclass: Our professional artists demonstrate essential techniques, from 'fats' and 'skinnies' to fading and layering colours.
Sketching Your Vision: Students grab paper and pencils to plan their tag or piece, focusing on letter structure and flow.
First Lines: Once the masks are on, it’s time to hit the canvas! Students start by outlining their designs with a light spray.
Filling In: This is where the magic happens! We teach the kids how to fill their letters with vibrant gradients and patterns.
Sharpening the Edges: We show them how to use a 'cutting' technique to make their outlines pop and fix any drips.
Shadows & 3D: To add depth, our artists guide the students in adding 3D effects and highlights to give the art a professional finish.
The Big Reveal: We finish the session with a group gallery walk to celebrate everyone's unique style and hard work!

Local culture

Dresden isn't just about Baroque palaces and the Elbe; it has a pulse of modern street art that rivals any major European city. The Äußere Neustadt district is a living gallery where every corner tells a story through murals and stencils. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, teaching kids the difference between 'vandalism' and the 'high art' they see on the streets of the Kunsthofpassage. 🎨

Fun Fact: Dresden is home to one of Germany's oldest legal graffiti walls, where artists from all over the world come to leave their mark. When we host our after-school sessions, we’re connecting the next generation to a rich local heritage of visual expression that makes Dresden truly unique. ✨
