Is it messy? What should the kids wear?

Absolutely! We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and masks to keep everyone’s clothes and lungs safe. While we take every precaution, we always recommend wearing 'old' clothes and sneakers just in case a stray bit of paint finds its way onto your shoes. Better safe than sorry when you're getting creative!

Can you come to our location in Galway?

While we usually host our workshops at designated street art spots or our partner locations in Galway, we are fully mobile! If you have a space with good ventilation or an outdoor area that is suitable, our team can bring the entire graffiti kit to you. Just let us know your location when you're booking.

Is spray painting safe for children and teens?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odour, professional-grade spray paint and provide all necessary safety gear, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks and nitrile gloves. Our instructors are seasoned pros who provide a full safety briefing before anyone even touches a can. We ensure a controlled, supervised, and fun environment.

Do the kids need to have artistic talent to join?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. We start with the basics—how to hold the can, how to control the pressure, and how to draw simple lines. Most participants are shocked at how much they improve in just two hours. It’s all about building confidence and having a laugh!

When and how do we pay for the workshop?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our flexibility. We don't require any upfront payment or deposits to secure your school holiday booking. You can pay on the day of the workshop once you're satisfied with the experience. We believe our quality speaks for itself, so we keep it stress-free!

What is the minimum age for the workshop?

Generally, we recommend our school holiday workshops for ages 8 and up. This is because the spray cans require a certain amount of hand strength and coordination to operate effectively. However, we can adapt sessions for slightly younger kids using different tools—just give us a shout to discuss your group!

What happens if it rains on the day?

Galway weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got it covered! We have access to various indoor or sheltered locations. If the weather looks truly dire for an outdoor session, we can either move to a backup indoor spot or reschedule to a time that suits you better. The fun doesn't stop for a bit of rain!

Step by step

Safety first: We kick things off with a quick safety briefing and gear up in overalls, gloves, and masks.
The basics: Your instructor demonstrates 'can control'—learning how to make thin lines, fat drips, and dots.
Sketching ideas: Participants grab markers and paper to plan their tag or piece before hitting the wall.
Outline work: It’s time to start! Everyone begins by sketching their design onto the surface with a light paint colour.
Fill-ins: This is the fun part where we blast the colours in, learning how to blend and fade like a pro.
The sharp edge: We add '0utlines' and '3D shadows' to make the artwork pop off the background.
The highlights: Adding some 'shines' and final 'bits' to give the piece that authentic street art feel.
The big reveal: We take group photos with the finished masterpiece—perfect for your social media!
Tidy up: We pack up the gear, leaving only the beautiful art behind for the community to enjoy.

Good to know

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 3 hours (we can tailor this to your schedule).
Group sizes: From small groups of 5 up to large school holiday programmes of 50+.
Included: Professional spray paint, caps, safety masks, gloves, protective overalls, and boards/canvases.
Safety: Lead by vetted, professional artists with high-grade protective equipment.

Local culture

Galway is a city of festivals, buskers, and incredible visual flair. From the colourful shopfronts of the Latin Quarter to the ever-evolving murals in the West End, street art is woven into the fabric of the City of Tribes. Our workshops tap into this local creative energy, allowing young people to contribute to the city's artistic reputation. We often host sessions near iconic spots where the bohemian spirit of Galway truly shines.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Galway was the European Capital of Culture in 2020? This legacy lives on in the city's massive support for public art and street performance, making it the perfect backdrop for a graffiti adventure! 🎭
