Is the graffiti workshop safe for children and teenagers?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. Our instructors are professional artists who are experienced in supervising young people. We use low-odour professional spray paint and conduct all school holiday sessions in well-ventilated areas or outdoor spaces to ensure a comfortable environment for every budding artist.

Do we need any previous art experience to join?

Not at all! Our Edinburgh school holiday workshops are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to those who’ve dabbled in art before. Our friendly instructors break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We focus on the 'fun' in Graffitifun, ensuring every participant leaves with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of, regardless of their prior experience.

What should participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide full-body protective overalls, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or shoes if you're getting really into the groove! Think 'painter's chic'—comfort is key when you're busy creating your masterpiece on the streets of Auld Reekie.

How long does a typical holiday session last?

Our standard school holiday workshops in Edinburgh typically last between 1.5 to 2 hours. This provides plenty of time for the initial safety briefing, practicing basic spraying techniques, sketching designs, and completing the final masterpiece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp without the youngsters getting tired.

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

We’ve got you covered! If the Edinburgh weather decides to be particularly 'Scottish,' we have access to covered outdoor spots or well-ventilated indoor spaces. We monitor the forecast closely and stay in touch with you. With our backup artist policy, we almost never cancel—we just find a creative way to keep the paint flowing while staying dry!

Are all materials included in the price?

Everything is included! Your booking fee covers the site hire, all professional spray paint, caps, safety gear (masks, gloves, overalls), and the surfaces we paint on (often large boards or canvases you can take home). There are no hidden costs or 'muck-about' fees. You just bring your energy and creativity, and we provide the rest of the kit!

How do I pay, and do I need to pay upfront?

We make it easy! No upfront payment is required to secure your booking. You can pay after the workshop once you've seen the smiles and the incredible artwork created. We believe in our service so much that we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. You can pay via bank transfer or invoice—whatever works best for your school holiday planning.
