How long does a typical youth graffiti workshop last?

For youth projects in Mechelen, our sessions typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for a proper safety briefing, a crash course in spray-can techniques, and plenty of time for the participants to create their masterpieces. We can adjust the duration based on your schedule, making it shorter for quick tasters or longer for deep-dive creative sessions where we work on a larger collective mural.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for teenagers?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks/respirators, gloves, and protective overalls to keep clothes clean. Our professional artists are highly experienced in working with young people and ensure the spray cans are used responsibly. We only use professional-grade paints in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designated indoor creative spaces to ensure everyone stays safe while having fun.

Do we come to you or do you have a studio in Mechelen?

We are totally flexible! We can bring our mobile workshop setup to your youth club, school, or community centre in Mechelen. Alternatively, we can help you find one of the city's legal 'hall of fame' walls or a suitable creative space where youth groups can work. Whether it's a car park, a courtyard, or a community hall, we'll make sure the location is prepped and ready for action.

Do the participants need to have any prior drawing skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels. Most of our youth participants have never held a spray can before. Our artists guide them through the basics—from making simple lines to complex fades and outlines. It’s all about the process and having fun with colours. You’ll be amazed at the high-quality art the kids can produce with just a little bit of expert guidance!

What are the payment terms for youth organisations?

No upfront payment is required! We believe in the quality of our service, so you only pay after the workshop is complete. This makes it much easier for youth organisations and community groups in Mechelen to manage their budgets without the stress of immediate bank transfers. For larger projects or festivals, we can provide all the necessary invoicing and administrative paperwork to keep your finance department happy.

Is there a minimum age for the participants?

We generally recommend our workshops for youngsters aged 10 and up. This is mainly because the spray cans require a certain amount of finger strength and coordination, and the safety masks need to fit properly. However, for younger groups in Mechelen, we can adapt the workshop using water-based markers or street chalk to ensure everyone gets to be part of the creative fun without any struggles.

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

If the weather in Mechelen turns typical for Belgium (a bit rainy!), we have several backup plans. We can move the session to a covered outdoor area, or we can work indoors on large canvases or wooden panels instead of a wall. We also have a network of backup artists to ensure your project never gets cancelled. Your youth project is safe with us, regardless of the Belgian clouds!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti project for your next youth initiative in Mechelen? It’s more than just paint on a wall—it’s a powerful tool for engagement and growth. Here’s why it works:

Authentic Connection: We speak the language of the youth. Street art is cool, relevant, and immediately engaging! 👋
Team Building: Nothing brings a group together like collaborating on a massive, colourful mural. 🤝
Boost Confidence: Seeing a giant artwork they created themselves gives young people a huge sense of pride and ownership. 🏆
Safe & Professional: We handle the logistics and safety, so you can focus on the fun. We’re experts in managing groups of all sizes. 💪
Zero Stress: With our backup artist guarantee and "pay afterwards" policy, your event is in safe hands. ✌️

Step by step

Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy intro about street art culture and brainstorm themes that matter to your group.
Safety first: Everyone gets suited up in protective gear and learns how to use the respirator masks and nozzles correctly.
The basics: Our artists demonstrate 'can control'—learning how distance and pressure change the lines on the wall.
Sketching the vision: Participants grab some chalk to sketch their ideas directly onto the surface before the paint starts flowing.
Filling the colours: The fun part! We start filling in the shapes, learning how to blend colours and create cool gradients.
The outline: We teach the trick of the 'final outline' to make the artwork pop and look like a professional piece of street art.
Details & highlights: Adding those final touches, like 'shines' and 'bubbles,' to give the work personality.
Group photo & cleanup: We celebrate the finished piece with a group photo and make sure the area is left spotless.

Good to know

Duration: Usually 2 to 3 hours, but we can scale up for multi-day mural projects. ⏱️
Group Size: Perfectly suited for groups of 10 up to 100+ (we bring extra artists for large crowds).
What’s Included: All spray cans, caps, safety masks, gloves, overalls, and professional artist guidance. 🎨
Safety: We use high-quality FFP masks and eco-friendly practices where possible. Safety is non-negotiable!
Location: Outdoor sites, mobile walls, or canvases—we come to your location in Mechelen.

Local culture

Mechelen is a city that bridges the gap between historical heritage and modern street vibes. While it's famous for the St. Rumbold's Tower, the city has been embracing urban art in a big way over the last few years. Have you seen the incredible murals scattered around the city? From the portraits near the station to the hidden gems in the small alleys, Mechelen is becoming a canvas for world-class artists. 🎨

Fun Fact: Mechelen has its very own 'Mechelen Muurt' project, curate by local legend Gijs Vanhee, which has transformed drab walls into a stunning open-air gallery. Our workshops tap into this same local spirit, encouraging the next generation of 'Maneblussers' to add their own colour to the city’s story. Whether we're painting near the Vismarkt or in a quiet suburb, the Mechelen energy is always top-tier! 🦁✨

Pricing

Our graffiti experiences for youth projects are designed to be accessible and high-impact. We offer flexible pricing to suit different group sizes and community budgets.

Price per person: Between €25 and €55 (depending on group size and materials).
All-in service: No hidden fees for travel or gear.
No Upfront Payment: You only pay once the workshop is successfully completed!

Every youth project is unique—whether it's a small workshop or a city-wide mural initiative. Request a custom quote today for a price tailored to your specific goals!
