Do the kids need any previous art experience?

Not at all! Our Florence graffiti workshops are designed for all skill levels. Most of the kids joining our after-school sessions have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists break down the process into simple, manageable steps, starting with basic lines and moving to more complex designs. We focus on building confidence and having fun, so no previous artistic experience is required to create something awesome.

Is it safe for children to use spray paint?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 masks to protect against fumes, as well as protective overalls and gloves to keep clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas, and we use professional-grade spray paint that is safe when used with the provided gear. Our experienced instructors supervise the group closely at all times to ensure everyone follows the safety protocols.

What should the participants wear to the workshop?

While we provide protective overalls and gloves, we always recommend that participants wear 'play clothes' that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. Spray paint is permanent and can occasionally find its way onto shoes or sleeves despite the gear. Comfortable trainers are a must as we will be standing and moving around during the creative process.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard after-school graffiti session usually lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This provides enough time for the safety briefing, the technique demonstration, individual practice, and the final creation of a masterpiece. We find this timeframe is perfect for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp without the kids getting too tired from the physical activity of spraying.

Can the children take their artwork home?

Definitely! We love seeing our young artists take their work home. Depending on the specific workshop setup in Florence, students will either work on a large shared mural or create their own individual pieces on high-quality canvases or boards. If they work on personal boards, they can take them home immediately to show off their new street art skills to friends and family.

Do we have to pay in advance?

We believe in the quality and fun of our workshops so much that we don't require any upfront payment. You can book the date and secure your instructor, and payment is only handled after the workshop has been completed. This 'no-risk' booking policy ensures that schools and parents feel completely comfortable and confident when choosing Graffitifun for their after-school activities.

What is the recommended age for this workshop?

Our after-school workshops are generally best suited for children aged 8 and up. At this age, they have the physical strength to press the spray caps and the coordination to follow the artist's instructions safely. We can adapt the complexity of the workshop based on the age group present, ensuring that both younger kids and teenagers find the session engaging and challenging.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your after-school programme? Besides being the coolest activity on the schedule, it offers massive benefits for young people:

Boosts Creativity: There are no 'wrong' colours in graffiti; it's pure, uninhibited self-expression ✨.
Team Building: Working on large-scale murals teaches students how to collaborate and communicate 🤝.
Physical Activity: Spraying requires movement, coordination, and a bit of a workout for those arms! 💪
Ditch the Screens: It’s the perfect way to get kids away from their phones and doing something tactile and real.
Accessible Art: You don't need to be a 'traditional' artist to excel; graffiti is for everyone 🎨.
Professional Mentorship: Learn directly from active street artists who live and breathe the culture 🏆.

Step by step

The Arrival & Gear Up: We start with a warm welcome where everyone gets their professional protective gear, including overalls, gloves, and masks.
Safety & Tool Talk: Our artists explain the 'golden rules' of spraying, how to handle the cans safely, and the importance of ventilation.
Mastering the Lines: Students start with basic exercises on a practice wall to learn how to control pressure and create thin or thick lines.
Sketching the Concept: Once the basics are down, we move on to sketching out the main design, focusing on letters, shapes, and character outlines.
Filling & Fading: This is where the magic happens! We teach the kids how to fill in their designs and create cool 3D effects or colour gradients.
The Final Outline: To make the artwork 'pop', we add the sharp final outlines and highlight details that bring the graffiti to life.
Group Review: We take a moment to look at everyone's work, share positive feedback, and learn from each other's different styles.
Clean-up & Photos: We wrap up by tidying the area and taking plenty of photos of the creative journey and the final masterpieces!

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 2 hours of pure creativity.

Local culture

Florence might be the home of Michelangelo and Botticelli, but its modern streets are alive with a different kind of masterpiece. From the clever 'modified' street signs by Clet Abraham to the underwater-themed windows of Blub, Florence has a rich, contemporary street art scene that perfectly complements its classical heritage. Our workshops tap into this local 'Firenze' vibe, teaching kids to appreciate both the old and the new.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Florence is one of the few cities where street art is officially celebrated with dedicated 'free walls'? It's the perfect environment for young artists to transition from Da Vinci to urban legends!
