What should our students wear to the workshop?

Students should wear old clothes and shoes they don't mind getting a bit of 'character' on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, graffiti is an active, messy art form, and sometimes a stray spray of paint finds a way through. Think of it as a souvenir of a great day, but it's better to be safe and dress down for the occasion!

Is the spray paint safe for secondary school students?

Absolutely! Your safety is our absolute priority. We use professional-grade spray paints and provide all necessary safety equipment, including FFP2/FFP3 masks and gloves. Our instructors are highly experienced in managing large school groups and ensure everyone follows the safety protocols. We also hold our sessions in well-ventilated areas or outdoors to ensure a safe environment for everyone involved.

How long does a typical school workshop last?

A standard secondary school session in Hamburg usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for the intro, sketching, safety briefing, and the main event: painting the mural! If you have a specific schedule or lesson block to stick to, just let us know. We are very flexible and can adapt the timing to fit your school's needs perfectly.

Can you accommodate large year groups?

We are experts at handling large groups! Whether you want to bring a single class or an entire year group, we have the staff and equipment to make it work. For very large numbers, we typically split the students into smaller 'crews' to ensure everyone gets enough individual attention and hands-on time with the spray cans. Safety and fun are always maintained.

Where in Hamburg do the workshops take place?

We can come to you! If your school has a suitable outdoor wall (with permission) or a well-ventilated space, we can bring the workshop to your campus. Alternatively, we have access to several legal graffiti zones and cool urban spots around Hamburg where the students can experience the authentic street art vibe. We'll work with you to find the most convenient location for your trip.

Do the students need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels. Our professional artists guide the students through the basics of 'can control' and lettering step-by-step. It’s amazing to see how students who don't think they are 'artistic' find their flow and create something they are truly proud of. It’s all about expression, teamwork, and having a blast with the paint.

How does the payment process work for schools?

At Graffitifun, we believe in trust and flexibility. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed and everyone is happy with the result. We even have backup artists available to ensure your event never gets cancelled. Payment can be handled easily via invoice, making the process smooth for school administration.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your next school outing in the Hanseatic city? It’s not just about spraying paint; it’s about giving students a voice in a medium they actually find 'cool'. 🚀

Boosts Creativity: Students move beyond the sketchbook and learn to think at a massive scale. 🎨
Team Building: Collaborative murals require communication, planning, and working together to a common goal. 🤝
Cultural Connection: Hamburg’s street art scene is world-class; give them a real connection to the city's modern culture. 🏙️
Accessible Art: No "traditional" art skills are required, making it inclusive for every student in the class. ✨
Confidence Builder: There's nothing like the "wow" moment when a student sees their finished piece for the first time. 💪
Expert Mentorship: Our artists aren't just pros; they're great at engaging with teenagers and keeping the energy high. 🎤

Step by step

Intro and history: We kick things off with a brief, high-energy look at the history of graffiti, from New York subways to Hamburg's vibrant street art scenes like Sternschanze.
Design and sketching: Students brainstorm their ideas and sketch out their "tags" or "pieces" on paper, learning about letter structure and composition.
Safety briefing: Before any paint is sprayed, we go over the essential safety rules, including how to use the masks, gloves, and overalls correctly.
Can control basics: Our pros teach the students how to hold the can, control the pressure, and create different line widths and effects.
Outline and fill-in: The students move to the wall (or canvases) to start the main piece, applying their sketches at a large scale.
Adding details: This is where the magic happens! We teach techniques for highlights, shadows, and "second outlines" to make the art pop.
The grand reveal: We take a step back as a group to admire the finished mural and take some epic crew photos.
Clean up: We teach the importance of leaving the spot tidy, disposing of empty cans responsibly.

Creative collaboration during a graffiti company outing

Local culture

Hamburg isn't just a port city; it's a living gallery! From the politically charged murals of the Rote Flora in the Schanzenviertel to the hidden gems in Gängeviertel, street art is woven into the city's DNA. Taking your secondary school group here means they are learning in a city that respects and celebrates urban expression. We often take inspiration from the local "Hamburg Style" – known for its bold outlines and maritime influences. ⚓

Fun Fact: Did you know Hamburg has several "Hall of Fame" spots where graffiti is 100% legal? It’s these spaces that keep the city’s creative pulse beating and provide the perfect canvas for our workshops!
