Is gravity painting safe for primary school children?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority for primary school workshops in Cork. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective aprons for every student. We also use low-odour, water-based spray paints where possible and ensure all sessions are conducted in well-ventilated areas or outdoors. Our professional artists are fully trained in managing large groups of children safely, ensuring everyone has a brilliant time without any risks.

Do the children need any artistic experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are specifically designed to be inclusive for all skill levels. Whether a student is already a little artist or has never held a spray can before, our Cork-based instructors provide step-by-step guidance. We focus on 'creative freedom' and building confidence, ensuring that every child leaves the session feeling proud of what they have created, regardless of their prior artistic experience.

Where in Cork do the workshops take place?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop right on your school grounds in Cork, using a playground or a sports hall with proper ventilation. If you’d prefer to get the kids out of the classroom, we can also arrange sessions at various street-art friendly locations across the city. We bring all the boards, plastic sheeting, and materials, so we leave your school just as clean as we found it.

How long does a typical school session last?

A typical primary school workshop lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This provides the perfect balance: enough time for a health and safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time. We can also adjust the timing to fit into your school’s specific timetable, such as a morning session before lunch or an afternoon creative block.

What do the students need to bring with them?

The kids don't need to bring a thing! Graffitifun provides everything required for a successful street art day: premium spray cans in every colour of the rainbow, protective gear (gloves, masks, suits), and the surfaces to paint on. We do recommend that students wear 'old' clothes and shoes just in case, even though we provide aprons to keep them tidy.

Is there a minimum group size for Cork schools?

Yes, we do! While we don't require deposit payments, we do have a minimum group size for our school bookings to ensure we can cover the travel and material costs for our professional artists. Usually, this is around 15-20 students, but we are always happy to discuss smaller groups or multiple small classes in one day. Get in touch for a custom quote!

What happens to the artwork after the workshop?

One of the best parts of our workshops is that the art stays with you! Depending on the setup you choose, students can either create individual canvases to take home or work together on large wooden panels. These panels are perfect for mounting on school walls or fences, creating a lasting legacy of the students' creativity right there in the heart of Cork.

The experience

Why choose a Graffitifun workshop for your school on the banks of the Lee? It’s more than just painting—it’s about building a sense of achievement! 🎨

Unleash creativity: There are no 'mistakes' in graffiti, which helps kids who might struggle with traditional art forms feel successful. 🚀
Teamwork in action: Our mural workshops require students to collaborate, communicate, and work together on one massive masterpiece. 🤝
Professional vibes: Our artists are the real deal—they live and breathe street art and are fantastic at engaging with primary-aged children. 🎤
Physical & fun: It’s a great way to get kids moving and practicing fine motor skills in a totally unique way. 🏃‍♂️
Safe & clean: We handle all the setup and cleanup, ensuring your school grounds stay tidy while the kids stay protected. 🧼
Zero stress: With no upfront payment and backup artists ready to go, your school event is in safe hands. 🏆

Step by step

Initial enquiry: Reach out to us with your preferred dates and the number of students participating in Cork.
Design the theme: We chat about what your students are learning—maybe it's nature, 'The Rebel City' history, or school values—and we incorporate that into the workshop.
Safety first: On the day, we start with a fun but thorough safety briefing and show the kids how to use their protective gear professionally.
Master the tech: Our artists demonstrate 'can control'—how to make thin lines, fat drips, and cool fades.
Sketching the wall: Students help sketch the layout on the boards or canvases, planning their masterpiece.
The big paint: This is the best part! Under our guidance, the kids get hands-on with the spray cans to fill in the designs.
Final outlines: We help the kids add those sharp outlines and highlights that make the graffiti pop.
Review and photos: We finish with a 'gallery walk' where students talk about their work, followed by a big group photo with their creation.

Good to know

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 2 hours, though we can adjust for double-sessions.
Group size: We cater to full class sizes (approx. 30 students) per artist.
What’s included: All paint, boards/canvases, respiratory masks, gloves, and aprons.
Weather: We have backup plans! If it’s typical Cork rain, we can work under gazebos or move to a ventilated indoor hall.
Safety: Full risk assessments provided; all artists are experienced in school environments.

Local culture

Cork has always been a city of rebels and creators, and its street art scene is no different! From the stunning murals of the 'Ardú' street art project to the hidden gems in the Lough and Shandon areas, the city is a living gallery. We love bringing that same energy into local primary schools, showing the kids that art doesn't just belong in a gold frame—it belongs to the community.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Cork is often called the 'Rebel City'? We encourage our workshop students to embrace that rebellious spirit by thinking outside the box and experimenting with bold, bright colours that reflect the vibrant personality of Leeside!

Pricing

We believe in transparent pricing that works for school budgets. Our school workshops in Cork typically range from:

€30 - €60 per student

This price varies based on the total number of students, the duration of the workshop, and whether you want individual canvases or a large-scale mural for the school. We don't require prepayments—you only pay after the fun is done!
