Where in Basel do the communion graffiti workshops take place?

Most of our Basel communion workshops take place at legal street art zones like the Schänzli or near the harbour areas where we have permission to paint. If you have a private garden or private property with enough space and ventilation, we can also bring the workshop to you! We provide all the protective floor coverings to keep your venue tidy.

Is graffiti suitable for children celebrating their first communion?

Ideally, we suggest a minimum age of 8 or 9 for kids to handle the spray cans comfortably and safely. Since a First Holy Communion usually happens around this age, it is the perfect time for them to try it! Our instructors are experts at guiding younger artists, ensuring they use the right technique without straining their hands.

What safety measures do you provide for the kids?

We take safety very seriously. Every participant is provided with high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and professional FFP2 masks to ensure no paint gets on clothes or fumes are inhaled. Our artist-mentors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, making sure everyone feels confident and secure throughout the session.

How long does the graffiti session last?

Standard workshops last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. For a communion party, this is usually the 'sweet spot'—long enough for the kids to learn techniques and finish a masterpiece, but short enough to fit between the family lunch and the cake! We can always adjust the duration to fit your specific party schedule.

Do the children need any prior artistic experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. We start with the basics—how to hold the can, how to control the pressure, and how to make clean lines. By the time they start on the main project, they’ll feel like pros. It’s all about having fun and expressing their own unique personality.

Can we keep the artwork after the party is over?

One of the best parts is that the kids (or the guest of honour) get to keep their work! Usually, we paint on large professional canvases or wooden panels. These dry quickly and can be taken home the same day to be hung on a bedroom wall as a permanent, cool souvenir of their communion day.

What happens if the artist is sick or we need to cancel?

With Graffitifun, you don't have to worry about last-minute hitches. We have a large team of professional artists across Switzerland, which means we always have backup artists ready to step in if someone falls ill. Plus, we don't require any upfront payment—you only pay after the workshop is successfully completed.

Local culture

Basel is widely known as the cultural capital of Switzerland, and its street art scene is just as impressive as its world-class museums. From the colourful murals along the railway tracks near the Gare de Basel SBB to the legal graffiti walls at the 'Schänzli' area, the city breathes creativity. Choosing a graffiti workshop for a communion party in Basel means tapping into this local urban spirit. Basel has always been a city of bridges—not just over the Rhine, but between tradition and modernity. Celebrating a traditional church milestone with a contemporary art form like graffiti captures that Basel 'vibe' perfectly. It’s a city where history meets the future, and your celebration will reflect that same exciting energy.
