How long does a typical after-school graffiti session last?

Our after-school workshops in Drogheda usually run between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives the students plenty of time to learn the basic techniques, practice their 'tagging' on practice boards, and finally complete their own masterpiece. We find this timeframe is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp without the kids getting overtired after a long day of classes.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for primary and secondary school students?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and overalls to keep clothes clean. Our instructors are professional artists who are experienced in managing groups of young people, ensuring that the spray cans are used responsibly and that everyone stays within the designated creative areas. We make sure the environment is fun but strictly supervised.

Do the students need to have previous artistic experience?

No prior art skills are needed at all! Our Drogheda workshops are designed for all ability levels. Whether a student is a natural-born doodler or has never held a spray can before, our artists guide them through every step. We focus on 'controlled' techniques that allow everyone to create something they can be proud of by the end of the session. It’s all about building confidence!

What materials do we need to provide for the workshop?

We provide everything! Your school or youth group doesn't need to worry about a thing. We bring the professional-grade spray paint, protective masks, gloves, canvases or boards, and even the inspiration sheets. We just need an outdoor space or a very well-ventilated indoor area to set up. We handle the heavy lifting and the clean-up, leaving you with nothing but great memories and cool art.

Do you come to our school or do we travel to a studio?

We are incredibly flexible with locations in Drogheda! We can come directly to your school grounds, a local community centre, or a youth club. All we need is a suitable outdoor area (like a playground or car park) where we can set up our mobile graffiti walls. If the Irish weather isn't cooperating, we can chat about ventilated indoor options or we can help suggest a nearby venue that works perfectly.

Is there an upfront payment required for the booking?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'No Stress' booking policy. You don't have to pay a cent upfront! We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you only pay after the session is completed and you’re 100% happy with the experience. This makes the administrative process for schools and clubs in Louth much easier to manage.

What age groups are these after-school workshops suitable for?

Our after-school programs are generally best suited for kids aged 10 and up, spanning through the teenage years. We find that secondary school students particularly love the urban culture aspect of the workshop. However, we can adapt our teaching style and the complexity of the designs for slightly younger groups if requested. It’s a fantastic way for different year groups to bond over a shared creative project.

The experience

Why choose a Graffitifun workshop for your after-school activity? Because we don't just teach kids how to spray; we give them a brand new way to express themselves! Check out the perks: 💪

Total creative freedom: Forget the "right" way to draw—here, the kids make the rules and find their own flow. 🚀
Confidence boost: Nothing beats the feeling of seeing a massive, colourful piece of art and saying, "I made that!" 🏆
Stress-free for teachers: We bring everything and handle the setup/cleanup. You just provide the space and the kids!
Authentic 'graff' skills: Students learn from real street artists who live and breathe this culture every day. 🎤
Social bonding: Creating a collaborative mural teaches teamwork in a way that’s actually exciting for teenagers.
Local & reliable: We have backup artists on standby, so your workshop in Drogheda will NEVER be cancelled at the last minute! 🛡️

Step by step

Intro & inspiration: Our pro artist kicks things off with a brief history of street art and shows some epic examples to get the creative juices flowing.
Safety briefing: We suit up! Everyone gets their mask, gloves, and overalls while we explain how to use the equipment safely and respectfully.
Mastering the nozzle: Students learn 'can control'—how to hold the spray, control the pressure, and create different line widths.
Sketching the design: Before hitting the wall, we sketch out our ideas on paper or directly on the boards using light 'ghost' lines.
Filling and fading: This is where the colour happens! We teach the kids how to fill in large areas and create those cool smooth gradients and fades.
The outline: The secret to great graffiti! Students learn how to add the crisp outer lines that make their letters or characters 'pop'.
Highlights and details: We add the finishing touches—shine lines, 'force fields', and little details that make the artwork unique.
The big reveal: We take a group photo (the ultimate 'gram' moment) and celebrate the amazing work the students have created together.

Local culture

Drogheda has always been a town with a deep appreciation for heritage and art, and it’s amazing to see how the local street art scene has grown. From the stunning murals that have popped up around the town centre as part of recent arts festivals to the creative energy of the 'Gateway to the Boyne Valley', there’s inspiration around every corner. We love bringing our workshops to Drogheda because the youth here have a unique voice and a real flair for the bold and the bright. 🇮🇪

Fun fact: Did you know the name Drogheda comes from the Irish 'Droichead Átha', meaning 'Bridge of the Ford'? We like to think of our workshops as a bridge between traditional art and the modern urban culture that kids love today!
