Is the paint safe for young children to use?

Safety is our number one priority for primary school workshops. We provide high-quality protective gear, including breathable masks, gloves, and overalls. Our artist-instructors are trained to supervise children closely, ensuring they use the spray cans correctly and maintain a safe distance from one another. We also select well-ventilated outdoor areas or legal graffiti walls across Aarhus to ensure a healthy environment for the students.

Can you host the workshop at our school or a public location?

Absolutely! While we love visiting schools in Aarhus and surrounding East Jutland, we are flexible. If your school grounds aren't suitable, we can arrange to meet at a legal public graffiti wall or a local youth centre. This often adds to the authenticity of the experience, allowing kids to see street art in its natural habitat while they create their own masterpieces.

How long does a typical school workshop last?

The ideal duration for primary school students is usually around 2 hours. This gives the children enough time to learn the basic techniques, practice their 'tagging', and complete a final collaborative piece without losing focus. However, we can adapt the timing between 1.5 to 3 hours to fit perfectly into your school's timetable or a specific project day.

What is the maximum group size for a school session?

We recommend a minimum of 10 participants to get the best creative energy going. For very large groups, such as multiple classes or an entire year group, we bring along additional professional artists to ensure every child gets personal guidance. There is no hard maximum, as we have a large team of backup artists ready to support major school events in Aarhus.

Do we need to provide any materials or protection?

Don't worry about the mess! We take care of everything. We provide all the necessary materials, including the spray paint, caps, and protective clothing. If we are working on your school's property, we use heavy-duty floor protection (tarps) and masking tape to ensure that only the intended canvases get painted. Our goal is to leave the site exactly as we found it.

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

Rain is a common guest in Denmark, but it won't stop the creativity! If the weather looks bad, we can often move the workshop to a sheltered outdoor area or use an indoor space with proper ventilation if the school permits. Because we have a team of backup artists and flexible scheduling, we work closely with you to ensure the workshop goes ahead safely.

Do the students need to have any prior drawing skills?

Our primary school workshops are designed to be inclusive and fun for all skill levels. We don't expect the children to be little Picassos! Our artists guide them through simple shapes and lettering first. The focus is on teamwork, self-expression, and the 'cool factor' of using a spray can, rather than perfect artistic technicality. Every child leaves feeling like a street art pro.

The experience

Why choose a Graffitifun workshop for your primary school in Aarhus? It’s a unique way to bridge the gap between traditional art education and modern urban culture. Our sessions offer:

Confidence building: Seeing a large-scale piece come to life gives kids a massive sense of achievement.
Professional guidance: Our Aarhus-based artists are not just talented; they are great with kids and highly professional.

Sketching ideas: Students grab paper and pencils to brainstorm their designs, focusing on letters, characters, or school-themed concepts.
Can control 101: Under expert guidance, the kids learn how to hold the can, control the pressure, and swap 'caps' for different line widths.
Outline practice: Time to hit the wall! Students practice making basic shapes and outlines on a practice surface or their assigned canvas area.
Filling and fading: We teach the secret of 'the fill'—how to color in their designs smoothly and add cool gradients and color transitions.
Detailing and 3D: The pros show the kids how to add 'highlights' and 3D effects to make their artwork pop off the surface.
The big reveal: We step back to admire the individual work and the collaborative mural, perfect for a class photo.
Tidy up: Our team handles all the cleanup, disposing of empty cans and packing away the protective gear so the school stays spotless.

Local culture

Aarhus is a city that breathes creativity, from the world-class exhibits at ARoS to the hidden gems of street art tucked away in the Latin Quarter. Our workshops are deeply rooted in this local "Smilets By" spirit. We encourage students to take inspiration from the urban landscapes they see every day around the Aarhus Central Station or the harbor. By engaging with graffiti in an educational setting, children learn to distinguish between vandalism and the beautiful urban art that makes Aarhus unique. We often reference local landmarks and the city's history in our design sessions, helping the younger generation feel a sense of ownership and pride in their local urban environment through the lens of modern street art.
