Do students need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels. Whether a student is a natural-born artist or has never held a spray can, our professional instructors guide them through the basics. We focus on the 'fun' in Graffitifun, ensuring everyone leaves with a piece of art they're proud of and a massive boost in creative confidence.

Is the spray paint safe for teenagers?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality, low-odour professional spray paint and full protective gear, including masks, gloves, and aprons. Our artists are experienced in managing groups of secondary school students and ensure that the workshop environment is kept clean, safe, and organized throughout the entire session here in Dublin.

Can you come to our school or do we travel to you?

Absolutely. We can host the workshop at your school (outdoors or in a well-ventilated area) or at a dedicated street art location in Dublin. If you choose to have it on-site, we take full responsibility for floor protection and ensuring the area is left exactly as we found it—apart from the brand new mural, of course!

How long does a typical workshop last?

Standard secondary school workshops usually last between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for the intro, practice sessions, and the final creation of a masterpiece. We can also adapt the timing to fit into your school’s transition year modules or specific double-period schedules as needed.

What is the maximum group size for a school workshop?

We can accommodate everything from a small art class to an entire year group. For larger groups, we bring in extra professional artists to maintain a high level of individual attention and safety. No matter the size of your group in Dublin, we ensure every student gets a hands-on, high-energy experience.

What happens if it rains on the day?

Don't worry about the Dublin drizzle! If we are working outdoors, we always have backup plans. We can move the workshop under cover, use gazebos, or if provided with a ventilated indoor hall, we can work there using floor protection. We also have a pool of backup artists to ensure your booking never gets cancelled.

Filling and outlining: The main event—students start filling in their designs and adding those crucial sharp outlines.
Highlights and 3D: We teach the tricks of the trade, like adding highlights and drop shadows to make the art jump off the wall.

Local culture

Dublin is a city that breathes creativity, from the iconic murals in Smithfield to the ever-evolving walls of the Bernard Shaw. Street art is a massive part of the Irish capital’s modern identity, and our workshops aim to connect students with that local culture. We don't just teach art; we talk about the legendary Dublin spots like the Tivoli (RIP) and how local artists have transformed the grey corners of the city into vibrant landmarks.

Fun Fact: Did you know that some of Dublin's most famous street art pieces were created during the 'Love the Lanes' project, aimed at making the city's alleyways safer and more beautiful through public art? It’s modern-day history in the making!

Pricing

We believe in transparent pricing that fits school budgets. Our secondary school workshops in Dublin generally range from €30 to €60 per student, depending on the number of participants and the specific project (e.g., individual canvases vs. a large school mural).

The best part? No upfront payment is required—you can pay after the workshop is complete. We also offer interactive tools like our Cost Calculator to help you get a quick estimate for your school board.
