What age groups can participate in the after-school workshop?

Our Helsinki after-school graffiti workshops are designed for everyone! Most participants are aged 8 to 18, but we tailor the complexity of the session to the specific age group attending. Whether they are primary school kids looking for messy fun or teenagers wanting to hone their artistic skills, our professional artists ensure every student feels supported and inspired to create something they are proud of.

Where do the workshops take place in Helsinki?

Helsinki weather can be a bit 'fresh', but we have you covered! We primarily use fantastic outdoor locations like legalized walls in Suvilahti during the warmer months. If the Finnish weather decides not to cooperate, we have indoor options and mobile setups that allow us to bring the workshop safely inside your school or community centre without making a mess on the floors!

Is spraying graffiti safe for students?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and specialised FFP2/FFP3 respiratory masks to ensure no one breathes in fumes. Our spray paints are professional-grade but used under strict supervision. Our artists are also trained in group management to keep the environment creative, respectful, and completely safe for all students throughout the entire session.

Do the kids need any prior drawing or art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are built for total beginners. We start with the absolute basics—how to hold the can, how to control pressure, and how to draw simple lines. By the end of the session, even those who thought they couldn't draw a stick figure will have created a vibrant, multi-layered graffiti piece. It's all about building confidence through creativity.

Can the students take their artwork home?

Definitely. While we love the collaborative spirit of working on a large shared mural, we often incorporate individual canvases or boards. This means every student in the Helsinki group gets to take their own unique masterpiece home to show off to their family and friends. It serves as a great souvenir of their creative journey into the world of urban street art.

How long does a typical session last?

The standard after-school session lasts about 2 hours, which is the 'sweet spot' for maintaining energy and focus. However, we are flexible! We can offer shorter 1.5-hour 'taster' sessions or more intensive 3-hour workshops for older students or dedicated art clubs. Just let us know your schedule in Helsinki, and we will make it work perfectly for your group.

How do we handle payment for the workshop?

We make it as easy as possible for Helsinki schools and parents. There is no upfront payment required when you book your date. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed and everyone is happy with the result. We accept various payment methods, ensuring a smooth and stress-free administrative process for your after-school programme or youth club.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your Helsinki after-school programme? It’s more than just painting on walls—it’s about confidence, community, and culture. Here is why we are a hit with local schools:

Unleash Creativity: It gives students a medium where there are no "wrong" answers, only style. 🎨
Confidence Booster: Seeing a giant, colourful mural completed in just two hours gives kids a massive sense of achievement. ✨
Professional Mentorship: Our artists aren't just teachers; they are active members of the international street art scene. 🎤
Zero Hassle: We bring all the gear. You just provide the space (or join us at ours!). 🏆
Team Spirit: Collective murals teach students how to collaborate and respect each other's artistic space. 🤝
Reliability Guaranteed: With our backup artist system, your Helsinki event will never be cancelled last minute! 💪

Step by step

Introduction & Safety: We meet the group and hand out protective gear (suits, masks, and gloves) while explaining the 'rules of the can'.
Sketching the Concept: Students grab paper and markers to brainstorm their tags and designs, learning about letter structure and flow.
Can Control 101: We head to the wall or canvas to practice basic techniques like dots, lines, and 'fading' colours.
Outline Phase: Every student starts sketching their main design onto their workspace using a light-coloured spray can.
Filling In: This is the fun part! We use vibrant colours to fill in the letters and shapes, learning how to layer paint effectively.
The Power of the Outline: We add sharp outlines to make the graffiti 'pop' and stand out from the background.
Highlights & Details: We add 'shine' lines, 3D effects, and little details that turn a good piece into a great one.
The Big Reveal: We take a group photo with the finished masterpieces—a proud moment for every budding Helsinki artist!

Good to know

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 3 hours (we can adapt to your school schedule).

Local culture

Helsinki has a unique relationship with street art. From the legendary "graffiti war" years to the modern-day explosion of legal murals in districts like Suvilahti and Pasila, the city is a living gallery. Participation in our workshops connects students to this local cultural evolution, teaching them the difference between vandalism and the sophisticated public art seen around the Kallio district. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know that Helsinki’s Suvilahti area is home to one of the longest legal graffiti walls in the Nordic region? It's a place where the city's history and modern creativity collide!

Pricing

Our Helsinki workshop prices are competitive and transparent, starting from €30 to €65 per person. The final price depends on the total number of students, the duration of the programme, and whether we are working on a large shared mural or individual canvases.

No upfront payment required! You only pay once the workshop is finished. We want to make sure your Helsinki school or youth group is 100% satisfied with the experience.
