Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Our school holiday workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists start with basic spray can techniques and safety rules before moving on to more complex skills. We provide all the guidance needed so that every participant, regardless of their artistic background, creates something they are genuinely proud of by the end of the session. It's all about having fun and learning something new!

What is the minimum age for participants?

We recommend a minimum age of 6 or 7 for our Thika workshops to ensure the kids have the physical strength to handle the spray cans effectively. For younger children, we focus more on tag creation and simple shapes, while teenagers can dive into advanced shading and 3D effects. We always tailor the complexity of the project to the age group present to keep everyone engaged.

Is the spray paint safe for children to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep everyone’s clothes clean. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas, and we use equipment that is compliant with safety standards. Our artists are trained to supervise the group throughout the entire process, ensuring a secure and enjoyable environment for all budding creators.

What should we wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of 'artistic' character on! While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a bit messy. It’s best to leave the brand-new trainers at home just in case. Once you're suited up in our gear, you'll be ready to paint without worry!

How long does a typical workshop session last?

Our standard school holiday workshops in Thika typically last between 1.5 to 2 hours. This provides the perfect balance of learning the history of street art, practicing techniques on plastic film or practice walls, and finally completing a masterpiece on a personal canvas. If you have a larger group or want a more intensive session, we can certainly extend the duration to fit your needs.

What happens if the artist is unavailable on the day?

In the rare event that an artist is unwell, don't worry! Graffitifun works with a large network of professional street artists across the region. we have backup artists on standby to ensure your holiday activity goes ahead as planned. We pride ourselves on reliability and our commitment to making sure your scheduled fun is never interrupted by logistical hiccups.

How do I book and when do I pay?

Once we've agreed on the details, we'll lock in your date. You only pay after the workshop is complete and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. Let’s get painting!
