Is the graffiti workshop safe for teenagers?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls for every participant. Our professional artists are fully trained in lead-safe practices and site management. We ensure the workshop takes place in a well-ventilated area, and we use professional-grade low-pressure spray cans that are easier and safer for younger users to control during the creative process.

Where in Cork do the workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible! We can host the workshop at your youth club, a local community centre, or even outdoors if the Cork weather is behaving. If you don't have a venue, don't worry—we have access to several creative spaces and legal graffiti walls across the city. We bring all the floor protection and boards necessary to ensure we leave the space exactly as we found it.

Do the participants need to have any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to budding artists. Our mentors guide the group through the basic 'can control' techniques first. You'll be amazed at how quickly the young people gain confidence. By the end of the session, even those who thought they weren't 'artistic' will have created something they are genuinely proud of.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard youth project workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a health and safety briefing, a history of street art, sketching designs, and the main event: painting the mural. If you have a specific schedule or a full-day community event planned, we can easily adapt the timing to fit your needs.

How does the payment process work for youth organisations?

Graffitifun is one of the few providers that offers a 'No Upfront Payment' policy. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. This gives youth organisations and charities peace of mind. We accept bank transfers and provide full VAT invoicing. We also have backup artists on standby to ensure your event never gets cancelled at the last minute.

What materials are included in the price?

We provide everything! This includes premium spray paint in a huge range of colours, caps (nozzles), protective gear, sketching materials, and the surfaces to paint on—whether that’s a large collective wooden mural or individual canvases that the kids can take home. The only thing you need to provide is the energetic group of young people ready to paint!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your youth project? It’s more than just painting—it’s about building confidence and community. Here is why Cork youth leaders love working with us:

Instant Engagement: Even the hardest-to-reach teens can't resist the cool factor of a spray can. 🎤
Team Building: Working on a large-scale mural encourages communication and shared pride.
Safe Expression: We provide a legal, structured outlet for urban creativity, reducing illegal tagging. 💪
Professional Mentors: Our artists aren't just talented; they are experienced in mentoring young people from all backgrounds.
Tangible Results: Participants end up with a massive piece of art that can decorate your youth centre for years. 🏆
Stress-Free Setup: We handle all the logistics, from floor protection to safety gear—you just provide the space!

Step by step

Initial brainstorm: We start by chatting about the themes or messages the youth group wants to express through their art.
Safety first: Every participant gets kitted out in protective gear and learns the vital rules of using spray paint safely.
The tag creator: Before picking up a can, we practice 'tagging' and letter structure using our digital tools and paper sketches.
Mastering the can: Our pro artists demonstrate 'can control'—learning how to make thin lines, thick fills, and smooth gradients.
Outline and fill: The group starts bringing their design to life on the wall or canvas, working together on a large-scale project.
Adding the 'pop': We teach the tricks of the trade, like highlights, 3D effects, and sharp 'cut-ins' to make the art stand out.
The final reveal: We step back to admire the collective mural, take group photos, and celebrate the incredible work the kids have done!

Good to know

Duration: Flexible sessions from 1.5 to 3 hours, or full-day community activations. ⏱️
Group Sizes: We cater to everything from small focus groups of 5 to large community events with 30+ participants.
What's Included: All spray cans, nozzles, masks, gloves, overalls, and painting surfaces (boards or canvases). 🎨
Safety: Full risk assessments provided; all artists are Garda vetted and safety-certified.
Venue: We come to you! Indoors (with ventilation) or outdoors across Cork city and county.

Local culture

Cork has always had a bit of a rebellious streak, and that's reflected in our thriving street art scene. From the massive murals on Sullivan's Quay to the hidden gems in the Victorian Quarter, the city is a living gallery. Our workshops tap into this local heritage, showing young Corkonians that they are part of a long tradition of Irish creativity. We don’t just teach 'graffiti'; we teach the culture behind it, respecting the city's streets while giving the youth a voice. 🔥

Fun Fact: Did you know Cork is home to some of the tallest murals in Ireland? Many of the world-renowned artists who painted them started exactly where our students do—with a single can and a big idea!

Pricing

We believe street art should be accessible to every community group. Our pricing is transparent and designed to fit within youth project budgets.

Workshop Investment

€30 - €60 per person

*Prices vary based on group size, duration, and material requirements.*

We offer special rates for non-profits and long-term youth initiatives. No deposit required—pay only after the spray paint dries! 🏆
