Do I need to be good at drawing to participate?

No previous artistic experience is required at all! Our professional graffiti artists are experts at teaching beginners from scratch. We start with the basics of can control and safety before moving on to more complex techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at what you can create. It's all about having fun, being bold, and enjoying the creative process with your university mates.

Is the workshop safe and what protective gear is provided?

Safety is our top priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint and conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our instructors give a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring everyone knows how to handle the equipment responsibly while having a blast.

How long does a typical graffiti workshop last?

A standard university workshop in Nyeri typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of a final masterpiece. If you have a specific schedule or a larger campus event, we can certainly tailor the duration to fit your needs perfectly. Just let us know your timeline!

What is the maximum group size for a campus event?

We are super flexible! Whether you are a small student club of 10 people or a whole faculty of 100+, we can scale our team of artists to accommodate you. For very large university groups, we often set up multiple stations or create a massive collaborative mural where everyone gets a chance to contribute their own unique tag or piece.

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

Rain doesn't have to stop the fun! If the weather in Nyeri takes a turn, we usually have a backup plan involving indoor spaces with specific low-odour paint or protective floor coverings. However, because we have a large team of backup artists, we are very rarely forced to cancel. We will always work with you to find a solution that keeps the paint flowing.

Do we need to pay in advance to secure our booking?

Not at all! One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'no cure, no pay' philosophy. You don't need to pay a cent upfront. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. This takes all the stress out of the booking process for student unions and university organisers.

Can we paint on actual university walls?

Typically, we provide large wooden panels or canvases for the workshop, which can then be displayed around your Nyeri campus as a permanent reminder of the day. If you have a specific legal wall on campus that you've been granted permission to paint, we can definitely work on that too! We just need to ensure everything is cleared with the university administration beforehand.

Local culture

Nyeri isn't just a hub for education and agriculture; it's a city with a deep-rooted sense of history and community. From the bustling markets to the quiet determination of its students, there’s an energy here that begs to be expressed through art. While Nairobi might be the famous street art capital nearby, Nyeri’s academic scene is the perfect breeding ground for a fresh, intellectual take on graffiti culture. 🇰🇪

Fun Fact: Did you know that Lord Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scouts, spent his final years in Nyeri? His home, 'Paxtu', is now a museum. While he was all about the outdoors, we like to think he’d appreciate the teamwork and skill involved in a modern graffiti session!

Whether you're studying at Dedan Kimathi University or visiting from a neighbouring campus, our workshops offer a unique way to connect with the local environment while adding a splash of modern urban culture to this historic highland city. 🔥
