Is the paint safe for primary school children?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. We also use low-odour, water-based spray paints whenever possible for younger children. Our professional artists are expert facilitators who maintain a structured environment, ensuring that every primary school student in Rivera can enjoy the creative process while staying completely safe and clean throughout the session.

How long does a typical workshop last?

Our primary school workshops usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for maintaining high energy and focus. We start with a brief history of street art and safety training, followed by practice sessions, and finally, the creation of the main masterpiece. We can easily adjust the duration to fit into your school’s specific timetable or morning assembly slots.

Do the students need any prior drawing experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from those who can't draw a stick figure to budding young Da Vincis. Our Rivera-based artists provide step-by-step guidance, teaching basic techniques like 'fats' and 'skinnies' (different line widths). The goal is to build confidence and have a blast, showing the children that everyone has a unique creative voice to share.

What materials do we need to provide?

We've got it all covered! Graffitifun provides everything: premium spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective clothing, masks, gloves, and the painting surfaces (like large canvases or wooden boards). We even bring the inspiration! All your school needs to provide is an outdoor or well-ventilated space and plenty of enthusiasm. We make the logistics as simple as possible for teachers and staff.

Is it more of a lesson or a hands-on activity?

We believe in 'learning by doing.' While we do include a short, age-appropriate chat about the history of graffiti and the difference between street art and vandalism, most of the session is hands-on. Students spend the majority of their time actually holding a spray can and creating art. It’s a physical, tactile experience that keeps primary schoolers engaged much better than a traditional lecture.

What is the maximum group size for a school workshop?

We are very flexible! We can work with anything from a single class of 20 pupils up to entire year groups. For larger groups, we often bring in additional backup artists to ensure every child gets personal attention and guidance. Since we have a large team of professionals, we can scale the event to meet the needs of any school in Rivera or Artigas.

Do we have to pay in advance?

No stress here! At Graffitifun, we don't require any upfront payment to secure your booking. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. This makes the booking process easy and risk-free for school administrators and PTA organisers. Just reach out, pick a date, and we'll handle the rest!

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your pupils in Rivera? It’s not just about the paint; it’s about the transformation. Here is why schools love working with us:

Step by step

Introduction & Safety: We start with a fun intro about the world of street art and a vital safety briefing on how to use the gear 🎤.
Mastering the Can: Students learn the basics, like how much pressure to apply and how to hold the can for different effects.
Sketching the Vision: Before the paint flies, we help the kids sketch out their ideas on paper or directly on the board with chalk.
First Lines: Under the guidance of our pros, students start 'tagging' their names and practicing basic shapes.
Filling in Colours: This is the fun part! Kids learn how to layer colours and create vibrant gradients 🌈.
The Outline: Our artists show them how to add sharp outlines to make their artwork 'pop' and look professional.
Special Effects: We teach cool tricks like highlights, shadows, and 'bubbles' to add that final street-art flair.
Group Masterpiece: Often, we'll end by having the whole class contribute to one giant, collaborative mural for the school.
Photo Op & Clean up: We finish by taking group photos with the finished art before packing up all our gear 📸.

Local culture

Rivera is a city of unique connections, where the lines between cultures and languages blur beautifully. We bring that same spirit of fusion to our workshops! The local street art scene here is growing, inspired by the colourful energy of our 'Frontera de la Paz.' We love incorporating this local vibe into our school sessions, perhaps taking inspiration from the murals found throughout the city or the lush landscapes of the nearby Lunarejo Valley. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know that Rivera and its Brazilian sister city, Santana do Livramento, share a plaza where you can literally have one foot in Uruguay and one in Brazil? We think that kind of international teamwork is exactly what street art is all about!

Pricing

Because every school has different needs—from group sizes to the number of murals created—we don't have a one-size-fits-all price list. Whether you're a small rural school or a large urban primary, we’ll tailor a package that fits your budget. Prices depend on group size and setup—request a quote today! 💸
