Is the graffiti workshop safe for teenagers?

Absolutely. We prioritise safety by providing high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls for every participant. Our professional artists lead the session with a comprehensive safety briefing, ensuring that everyone uses the spray cans correctly. We choose well-ventilated outdoor areas or legal spray walls in Bern to ensure a healthy and secure environment for all young creators involved in our youth projects.

Do participants need to have previous art experience?

No prior artistic skills or drawing experience are needed at all! Our workshops are designed to be inclusive and accessible. We start with the absolute basics, teaching participants how to hold the can and control the pressure. Our instructors provide stencils and guidance, helping every young person create something they can be proud of, regardless of their previous experience with art or spray paint.

What should the youth participants wear to the session?

We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we do provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a bit messy, and accidental splashes can happen outside the covered areas. It is best to be comfortable and prepared so you can focus entirely on the creative process without worrying about your wardrobe.

How many people can participate in a single youth project?

The ideal group size for our youth projects in Bern is usually between 10 and 30 participants to ensure everyone gets personal attention. However, we are very flexible and can cater to much larger groups by bringing in additional professional artists from our backup pool. This ensures that the quality of instruction remains high and every participant stays engaged and supported throughout the workshop.

Where in Bern do these workshops typically take place?

We usually host our Bern workshops at legal 'Hall of Fame' spray walls or designated public creative spaces. If you have a specific location in mind, such as a youth centre or school ground with a suitable wall or space for mobile wooden canvases, we can certainly come to you. We handle all the logistics to ensure the spot is appropriate for a professional graffiti session.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard youth graffiti workshop lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows enough time for an introduction to the history of street art, a practice session on basic techniques, and the execution of a final large-scale piece. We can adjust the duration to fit into your specific youth program or event schedule if you have time constraints.

Do we need to pay in advance for the booking?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'pay after the workshop' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront payments or deposits when booking. We believe in the quality of our service, and this provides total peace of mind for youth leaders and organisers. Once the session is complete and you are 100% satisfied, we handle the payment details.

The experience

Choosing a graffiti workshop for your youth project in Bern is about more than just painting; it is about building bridges and discovering hidden talents. Here is why our workshops are the perfect fit for your next initiative:

Boosts Self-Esteem: Seeing a large-scale mural come to life gives young people a massive sense of accomplishment and pride.
Encourages Teamwork: Our projects require participants to communicate and collaborate to create a cohesive piece of art.

Step by step

Safety Briefing: Participants are fitted with masks and overalls while we explain the essential safety rules for using aerosol spray cans.
Basic Techniques: Our artists demonstrate how to create clean lines, fades, and dots, letting the group practice on a 'trial wall'.
Concept & Sketching: The youth group brainstorms a theme or a 'tag' for their collective project, sketching out the initial design on paper.

Adding Details: This is where the magic happens—we teach them how to add highlights, shadows, and 'cuts' to make the artwork pop.
The Masterpiece: The group steps back to finish their collective mural, ensuring every participant has contributed to the final result.
Photos & Wrap-up: We document the final artwork with high-quality photos and conduct a quick debrief to celebrate the group's achievement.

Local culture

Bern is a city where history meets a thriving alternative scene. While its medieval Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site, the city's modern identity is shaped by vibrant hubs like the Reitschule and various legal mural spaces along the Aare river. Our graffiti youth projects tap into this local 'Bernese' spirit of independence and artistic flair. We don't just teach kids how to paint; we connect them with the urban fabric of Bern, encouraging them to contribute to the city's evolving street art landscape in a responsible and creative way. From the Reitschule's iconic walls to the contemporary vibes of the Breitenrain district, we bring the authentic street art culture of the capital directly to your youth group.
