How does a workshop actually prevent vandalism in Cork?

Graffiti vandalism is often a cry for visibility or a result of boredom. Our program redirects that energy into artistic development. By providing professional tools and a legal space, we teach participants that street art is a skill that requires discipline and respect. When people learn the effort behind a mural, they are far less likely to disrespect public property with low-effort tags.

Is this workshop still fun even though it has an educational goal?

Absolutely! While we focus on the social impact of reducing illegal tagging, the workshop itself is high-energy and incredibly fun. It’s a hands-on creative experience where you get to use professional spray cans, learn cool techniques like fading and outlining, and create something you're actually proud of. It’s about building confidence through creativity, not just sitting through a lecture.

What materials are included in the anti-vandalism package?

We provide everything you need to get started. This includes high-quality spray paint in a huge range of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or designated wall space. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and some old shoes you don't mind getting a bit dusty!

Is the workshop safe for younger participants?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-pressure cans that are easier to control and provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure no one is inhaling fumes. Our artists are trained professionals who supervise the group at all times, ensuring the spray paint stays on the canvas and everyone follows the safety protocols.

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard anti-vandalism workshops typically last between 2 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, discuss the impact of vandalism, teach the basic technical skills, and allow everyone to complete their own masterpiece. We can also adapt the duration for school schedules or community centre requirements.

What is the ideal group size for this program?

For our anti-vandalism programs, we find that groups of 10 to 20 people work best to ensure everyone gets individual attention from the artist. However, we can cater to much larger groups by bringing in additional backup artists from our professional network. We’re flexible and can scale the event to suit your specific local community needs.

What happens if we need to cancel or change our date?

We understand that plans can change, especially with community projects. Unlike many other providers, we don't require an upfront payment to book. You can secure your date and pay after the workshop is completed. We also have a team of backup artists ready to step in, so you never have to worry about a last-minute cancellation.

Hey there, Cork! Are you looking for a way to tackle illegal tagging while giving the local community a creative outlet they'll actually love? Our graffiti anti-vandalism program in the Rebel City is all about shifting perspectives. We take that raw urban energy and channel it into something positive, professional, and legal. Based right here in the heart of Cork, our expert artists show participants that street art is a craft that deserves respect—not just a quick scrawl on a bridge. We move beyond the "don't do that" lecture and instead show people "how to do this" the right way. It’s interactive, it’s loud, it’s colourful, and it’s a proven way to reduce unwanted vandalism by fostering a sense of ownership and pride in the local environment. Ready to make your mark? 🎉

Safety briefing and gear up: Everyone gets fitted with protective masks and overalls while we explain how to use the equipment safely.
The 'Nozzle' masterclass: Participants learn about different 'caps' and how they change the spray width, from thin lines to fat flares.
Sketching your concept: Before touching the wall, we help you plan your design on paper to understand composition and flow.
Can control practice: A hands-on session where you practice basic movements, fading, and pressure control on a practice surface.
Main creation phase: The best part! You'll work on your primary piece, applying everything you've learned with the guidance of our pros.

Local culture

Cork has always been a city of rebels and creatives, and our street art scene is no different. From the vibrant murals of the 'Coughlan’s' wall to the hidden gems in the Lough, Cork’s urban landscape is a canvas for storytelling. Our anti-vandalism program taps into this unique Rebel City spirit, encouraging young people and community groups to contribute to the city’s beauty rather than detracting from it. We believe that by teaching the technical skills of the greats, we can protect the historic charm of Shandon and the bustling streets of Grand Parade.

Fun fact: Did you know Cork is home to some of the most impressive "legal walls" in Ireland? Places like the White Street car park have historically served as a training ground for world-class artists, proving that when you give people a place to paint, the city thrives! 🎨
