Do the youth need prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our Jimma youth projects are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists start with the basics, from how to hold a spray can to mastering simple lines and fades. We provide a safe, encouraging environment where mistakes are just part of the creative process. By the end of the day, every participant will have created something they can be proud of, regardless of their previous art experience. ✨

Is the graffiti workshop safe for teenagers?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. We use low-odor spray paint whenever possible and ensure all workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor or large indoor spaces. Our instructors are experienced in managing groups and provide clear safety briefings before anyone touches a can. We make sure the environment is controlled, professional, and totally secure for everyone involved. 🛡️

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard youth project workshop in Jimma typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, technique practice, and the final creation of a large-scale mural or individual canvases. We can also adapt the timing to fit into a full-day youth festival or a shorter after-school program depending on your specific needs and goals. 🎨

What materials are included in the youth project package?

We bring everything! Graffitifun provides all the professional spray cans in a wide variety of colors, protective clothing (suits, gloves, masks), and the painting surface (whether that's a temporary wall or individual canvases). We even handle the floor protection to keep the site clean. You just need to bring the energy and wear clothes that you don't mind getting a little dusty! 🎒

Can we create one big mural together or individual pieces?

We are very flexible! You can choose to have the youth work together on one massive, collaborative mural that represents their community or school, or they can work on individual pieces. Collaborative murals are fantastic for team-building and creating a lasting sense of pride, while individual projects allow for more personal expression. We can even do a mix of both! 🤝

Do we need to pay in advance for the workshop?

Not at all! One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'no cure, no pay' mentality. You don't have to pay anything upfront when booking your Jimma youth project. We believe in our service so much that you only pay after the workshop is successfully completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience we've provided for your youth group. ✅

Are you available for workshops in other Ethiopian cities?

Yes, we can! While we love painting in Jimma, we also host workshops in Addis Ababa, Dire Dawa, Mekelle, and Adama. If you have a youth organization with multiple branches or a regional event, we can coordinate a street art tour across different Ethiopian cities to bring the creative spark to as many young people as possible. Just let us know your location! 🌍

Local culture

Jimma is a city of incredible energy, known as the gateway to Ethiopia’s coffee heartland. We love bringing our workshops here because the youth in Jimma have a unique vibe—mashing up traditional Oromo culture with modern urban influences. From the bustling streets near the Jimma Museum to the vibrant energy around Jimma University, there is so much local inspiration to draw from. Our workshops encourage youth to incorporate Jimma’s rich heritage, like the iconic coffee culture or local patterns, into their modern graffiti designs. ☕✨

Fun Fact: Did you know Jimma was once the capital of the historic Kingdom of Jimma? We often see students drawing inspiration from the intricate architecture of the Aba Jifar Palace in their street art sketches! 🏛️
