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

Our after-school workshops in Kilkenny generally run for about 1.5 to 2 hours. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where students stay fully engaged, have enough time to master the spray cans, and complete a high-quality piece of art. If you have a specific schedule or school bell times we need to work around, just let us know and we can easily tailor the duration to fit your afternoon routine perfectly.

Is the workshop safe for children and teenagers?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with protective gloves, masks, and aprons to keep clothes clean and lungs safe. Our professional artists are highly experienced in managing groups of young people and ensure everyone follows the safety rules while having a blast. We use high-quality spray paints in a controlled environment, making it a safe yet thrilling creative outlet for students of all ages.

Where in Kilkenny do these workshops take place?

We can host the workshop right on your school grounds in Kilkenny if you have a suitable outdoor area or a well-ventilated indoor space. If that’s not an option, we have various partner locations around the city where we can bring the creative chaos. We are completely mobile, carrying all the boards, paints, and gear to wherever is most convenient for your student group or youth club.

Do the students need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from those who haven’t picked up a pencil in years to budding young Picassos. Our artists walk the students through the basics of 'tagging' and 'piece-making' step-by-step. By the end of the session, even the most hesitant students are usually amazed at the vibrant, professional-looking street art they’ve managed to create. It’s all about building confidence through creativity.

What materials are included in the workshop price?

We bring everything needed to turn your students into street artists! This includes a massive variety of spray can colours, specialized nozzles (caps) for different effects, protective gear, and the surfaces to paint on (usually large boards or canvases). We even bring the inspiration! The only thing the students need to bring is their enthusiasm and perhaps some old shoes they don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint dust on.

Do we have to pay in advance for the booking?

We believe in our service so much that we don't require any payment upfront. You can book your Kilkenny after-school session with complete peace of mind. Once the workshop is finished and you’ve seen the smiles on the students' faces and the amazing art they’ve created, that’s when the payment is handled. We aim for 100% satisfaction, ensuring a stress-free experience for teachers, parents, and organizers alike.

What is the minimum or maximum group size?

We usually recommend a minimum group size of 10 students to get a great atmosphere going, but we can accommodate much larger groups too. For very large groups, we can bring in extra artists to ensure every student gets plenty of one-on-one guidance and hands-on time with the spray cans. If you have a particularly small or exceptionally large group, just get in touch and we’ll figure out the best setup for you.

QUICK TAG WALL

Pick a colour and spray

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your after-school programme? It’s not just about spraying paint on a wall; it’s a unique way to engage students who might not thrive in traditional academic settings. Here is why Kilkenny schools love working with us:

Boosts Confidence: Seeing a giant, colourful piece of art they created themselves gives students a massive sense of achievement. 💪
Safe & Legal: We teach the difference between vandalism and street art, providing a legal, positive outlet for their energy. ⚖️
Creative Freedom: No "right or wrong" answers here—we encourage every student to find their own unique style. 🌈
Team Building: Many of our workshops involve working together on a large collaborative piece, fostering teamwork and communication. 🤝
Zero Stress for Teachers: We bring everything and handle the entire setup and cleanup. You just sit back and watch the magic happen! ✨
Professional Guidance: Our artists are mentors who inspire the next generation through their own passion for art. 🏆

Step by step

Introduction & Safety: We start with a quick intro to graffiti culture and a vital safety briefing on how to use the gear correctly.
Mastering the Can: Students learn 'can control'—how to hold the spray can, adjust pressure, and use different caps for thin or thick lines.
Sketching the Concept: Before hitting the boards, we help students sketch out their names or a cool character on paper to plan their masterpiece.
The First Layer: It's time to spray! Students apply their base colours and start filling in the outlines of their designs.
Adding Style: Our artists demonstrate techniques like 'keylines', 'highlights', and 'fades' to make the artwork pop off the surface.
The Outline: This is where the magic happens; adding a sharp outline brings the whole piece together and makes it look professional.
Final Details: Students add stars, bubbles, or personalized 'tags' to give their work that final street-art flair.
Group Gallery: We finish with a showcase where everyone can admire each other's work and take some epic photos for the school social media.

Local culture

Kilkenny might be famous for its medieval 'Black Abbey' and the stunning Kilkenny Castle, but there is a growing modern pulse beneath the cobblestones. While the city celebrates its heritage, there is a rising appreciation for contemporary urban expression. Bringing a graffiti workshop here creates a fantastic bridge between the city’s historic artistic roots and the modern world the students live in today. From the creative energy found during the Kilkenny Arts Festival to the hidden gems of street art tucked away in the city's side streets, Kilkenny is a place where creativity is always welcome. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know that Kilkenny is often called the "Marble City"? While the local limestone isn't actually marble, it polishes up just as beautifully—much like how we help students take their rough sketches and polish them into stunning street art pieces! ✨

Pricing

Every school and youth group has different needs, so we keep our pricing flexible. Our Kilkenny graffiti experiences generally range from €30 to €60 per person. This price is all-inclusive of materials, travel, and the expert guidance of our artists. Factors like the number of participants and the specific project (like a permanent wall mural vs. individual canvases) will influence the final cost.

Because we want to give you the best value for your setup, we always recommend getting a tailored estimate. Plus, remember: no upfront payment is required!
