Do the kids need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! No prior painting or drawing experience is required for our Bloemfontein holiday workshops. Our professional instructors guide participants through everything from how to hold a spray can to creating complex shading effects. Most of our students have never touched graffiti gear before, and by the end of the session, they are amazed at the professional-looking mural they have helped create. It's all about having fun and learning something new.

How do you ensure the safety of participants during the workshop?

Safety is our top priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality FFP2 masks to filter out fumes, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designated legal graffiti walls. Furthermore, our artists are experienced in managing groups and ensuring that the spray cans are used responsibly and safely throughout the entire duration of the holiday program.

What should my child wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide protective overalls, graffiti can be a messy business. Closed-toe shoes (like old takkies) are a must for safety. Since Bloemfontein can get quite sunny or chilly depending on the season, it is also a good idea to bring a hat, sunscreen, or a warm jacket to stay comfortable while working outdoors.

How long does a typical school holiday session last?

Our holiday workshops typically run for about 2 hours, which is the perfect amount of time to learn the basics and complete a full project without losing focus. We can adjust the duration for larger groups or special holiday events. This timeframe includes the safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of the masterpiece. If you are looking for a shorter or longer session, we can definitely discuss a custom schedule.

Do I need to pay upfront for the school holiday booking?

Graffitifun is unique because we believe in our service so much that we don't require upfront payments. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. This gives parents and organizers peace of mind, knowing that we are fully committed to delivering a fantastic experience. Payments can be handled via bank transfer or other agreed-upon methods once the kids have finished their street art adventure in Bloemfontein.

What happens if we need to cancel the booking?

We understand that plans can change. If you need to cancel or reschedule your Bloemfontein holiday workshop, please let us know as soon as possible. Because we don't take upfront payments, there is no messy refund process. We also have a reliable backup system with multiple artists, meaning even if your assigned instructor falls ill, we almost always have a professional stand-in ready to ensure your event goes ahead as planned.

Is there an age limit for the school holiday workshops?

We generally recommend our workshops for children aged 8 and up. This is because handling the spray cans requires a certain level of hand strength and coordination. However, we can accommodate slightly younger children if they are accompanied by an adult or as part of a mixed-age family group. For teenagers and young adults, we scale up the complexity of the designs to keep them challenged and engaged throughout the session.

Local culture

Bloemfontein might be known for its historic architecture and beautiful gardens, but there is a growing urban art pulse beating through the city. From the creative hubs near the University of the Free State to the hidden gems in the city centre, street art is slowly turning the "City of Roses" into a canvas of modern expression. Our workshops connect kids to this contemporary culture, allowing them to contribute their own voice to the local scene. We often host sessions in areas that celebrate Bloem's unique blend of traditional South African heritage and modern youth energy, making it a truly local experience they won't find anywhere else.
