Do the children need any prior artistic experience?

Absolutely! Our Nizhny Novgorod after school workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists guide the students through every single step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. We focus on building confidence and allowing kids to express their unique styles in a safe, supportive, and super fun environment. No previous art experience is needed—just a desire to create!

What safety measures are in place during the workshop?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We provide high-quality protective gear, including professional-grade masks, gloves, and disposable overalls to keep clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially equipped indoor spaces. Furthermore, our instructors are experienced professionals who supervise the group closely at all times to ensures everyone uses the equipment correctly and safely.

What materials are provided in the after school session?

Everything is included! We provide professional spray paint in a huge variety of vibrant colours, high-quality caps for different line widths, protective clothing, and the surfaces for painting (this could be large canvases or a dedicated wall area). We also provide expert instruction throughout. Students just need to wear comfortable clothes they don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on—even though we provide overalls!

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard after school graffiti workshop in Nizhny Novgorod typically lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This provides enough time for a thorough safety briefing, an introduction to basic techniques, the design phase, and the actual painting process. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp without the students getting tired. Length can be adjusted for specific needs!

Can the students take their artwork home?

Yes, they can! Depending on the specific setup we arrange with the school or venue, students often get to take home their individual spray-painted canvases. If the group works together on a giant communal mural, it makes for a fantastic permanent (or semi-permanent) art installation for the school grounds! Seeing their work on display is a massive boost to their self-esteem and pride.

What happens if the weather is bad on the day?

Nizhny Novgorod weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered. If we've planned an outdoor session and the rain rolls in, we usually have a backup indoor location ready or can reschedule the event. Our 'no cancellation' policy means we always have backup artists available, so your event will go ahead as long as it's safe to do so. Your creativity won't be dampened!

The experience

Why choose graffiti for an after school activity? Because it bridges the gap between traditional art and modern culture, engaging even the 'hardest to reach' students. Here’s why our Nizhny Novgorod sessions are a hit:

Boosts confidence: Nothing beats the feeling of seeing your massive artwork come to life in vibrant colour!
Develops motor skills: Controlling a spray can takes focus and physical coordination that regular drawing doesn't.
Inclusive art: There are no 'wrong' lines in graffiti—it’s perfect for kids who feel intimidated by traditional 'high art'.
Stress relief: Designing and painting is a brilliant way for students to decompress after a day of academic study.
Teamwork vibes: Many of our projects involve working together on one giant mural, teaching collaboration and communication. 🤝
Pro instruction: We only work with the best artists who are passionate about teaching the next generation.

Step by step

Intro and safety briefing: We kick things off with an energetic welcome and a vital safety talk. We teach the kids how to use the gear correctly so everyone stays safe while having fun.
The basics of 'can control': Students learn how to hold the spray can, how distance affects the line, and how to swap caps for different artistic effects.
Sketching the vision: Before touching the wall, kids brainstorm their ideas on paper. Our artists help them translate their imagination into a workable graffiti sketch.
Outline and 'first fill': The exciting part! Students start applying their first layers of colour to the canvas or wall, learning how to fill large areas efficiently.
Adding the 'pop': We teach them techniques like fading, highlighting, and 3D effects to make their designs jump off the surface.
Defining the piece: Using high-contrast colours, the kids learn to outline their work, giving it that crisp, professional 'street art' look.
The finishing touches: Adding 'tags' and decorative elements like stars, bubbles, or splashes to complete their masterpiece.
Gallery walk and photos: We finish with a group review where everyone celebrates each other’s work—perfect for those proud social media photos!

Good to know

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 3 hours (flexible to fit school schedules).

Local culture

Nizhny Novgorod isn't just a city of ancient history; it’s a living, breathing canvas. From the famous 'Place' street art festival to the hidden murals tucked away in the historic courtyards of the city centre, Nizhny has a deep-rooted respect for urban expression. We draw inspiration from the city's unique position at the confluence of the Volga and Oka rivers, encouraging students to channel that local energy into their own designs. Our artists often share stories about the local scene, connecting the kids to the wider world of Russian street art.

Fun fact: Nizhny Novgorod is often called the 'Street Art Capital of Russia' because of how many professional murals are integrated into its beautiful old wooden architecture. 🎨
