Is the graffiti workshop safe for secondary school students?

Absolutely! We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone’s school uniforms or clothes clean. We use specialized low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control, and our professional artists supervise the entire process to ensure a safe, creative environment for all students in Nantes.

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

Nantes weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered! We have access to several indoor locations and sheltered areas across the city. If the weather looks truly nasty, we can often relocate the session to a school gym or a covered hall, or reschedule using our backup artist system.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

Typically, our secondary school workshops last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, sketching, practice, and the final 'masterpiece' creation. We can also adapt the timing to fit into your school’s standard double-period or afternoon activity slots.

Do students need to bring their own spray cans or materials?

You don't need to bring a thing! Graffitifun provides everything: premium spray paint in a rainbow of colours, protective gear, caps, and the surfaces we’ll be painting on (like large boards or canvases). Just bring plenty of energy and your most creative ideas!

Can you accommodate a large year group or multiple classes?

We are experts at handling large groups! For bigger secondary school classes in Nantes, we bring in extra professional artists to maintain a low student-to-teacher ratio. This ensures every student gets personal attention and help with their technique, making the experience inclusive for everyone.

Do the students need to be 'artistic' to enjoy the workshop?

No prior art experience is required at all! Graffiti is a very accessible medium. Our artists are trained to teach absolute beginners how to make something that looks impressive. It’s all about building confidence, learning the 'can control', and having a blast with friends.

The experience

A graffiti workshop isn't just an art lesson; it's a confidence-building powerhouse! Here’s why secondary schools in Nantes love working with us: 🔥

Boosts creative confidence: Even students who 'can’t draw' find success with spray cans, discovering hidden talents they never knew they had.
Team building: Working on a large-scale mural encourages communication, shared vision, and lots of laughs.
Expert guidance: Our artists aren't just talented; they’re great with teenagers and know how to keep the energy high and the focus sharp.
Stress relief: There’s something incredibly satisfying about the 'psssst' of a spray can—it’s the perfect break from exam stress! 🎤
Physical & active: No sitting behind desks here; students are on their feet, moving, and creating in the fresh air.
Professional setup: We handle all the prep and clean-up, leaving you with nothing to do but enjoy the results.

Step by step

Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy kick-off, looking at the history of street art and showing examples of different styles to get the students' brains buzzing.
Safe spraying: Our pros demonstrate how to handle the cans properly, focusing on safety, distance, and the importance of using protective gear.
Sketching the vision: Students grab paper and markers to map out their tags or 'pieces', learning about letter structure and flow before touching the paint.
Nozzle knowledge: We teach the difference between 'skinny' and 'fat' caps, showing how to create fine lines or fill large areas quickly.
Practice run: Everyone gets a chance to practice basic strokes—lines, dots, and fades—on a practice wall to get a feel for the pressure.
The main event: It’s time to hit the big boards! Students work together or individually to bring their sketches to life in full colour.
Adding the 'pop': We show the kids how to add 3D effects, highlights, and outlines that really make their artwork stand out from the background.
Grand reveal: Once the paint is dry, the group steps back to admire the collective mural, followed by a fun group photo session!

Good to know

Our workshops are designed to be hassle-free for teachers and pure fun for students. We typically run sessions for 90 minutes to 3 hours, but we can flex this to suit your school timetable. We can host small groups of 10 or large year groups of 100+ by bringing in our team of backup artists. 🛡️

Included: All spray paint, masks, gloves, protective suits, and painting surfaces.
Location: We can come to your school grounds or host you at a cool outdoor spot in Nantes.
Safety: We use high-quality, low-odour paints and full safety gear is mandatory.

Local culture

Nantes is a city that breathes creativity, from the mechanical wonder of the Great Elephant to the vibrant murals found in the Quartier de la Création on the Île de Nantes. It’s the perfect backdrop for a graffiti workshop! Local street art culture here is legendary, with legal walls and hidden gems scattered throughout the city, reflecting the rebellious and innovative spirit of the Pays de la Loire. 🏛️

Fun Fact: Did you know that the former industrial shipyards of Nantes have been transformed into a massive open-air gallery? The city actively supports urban art, making it one of the most 'graffiti-friendly' spots in France. We draw inspiration from this local 'Nantais' flair to show students how street art can rejuvenate urban spaces and tell a story. ✨
