Is the graffiti workshop safe for teenagers and young children?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority at Graffitifun. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and overalls to ensure everyone stays clean and safe. Our professional artists are experienced in supervising youth groups and provide a full safety briefing before any spray cans are even touched. We only use pro-grade equipment to ensure a secure, worry-free creative environment for all participants.

Where in Thika do the workshops take place?

We are super flexible! While we often host sessions at cool outdoor spots or local community hubs in Thika, we can also come to your location. If you have a school yard, a youth centre, or a private wall, we can set up there. We use mobile plastic walls or large canvases if a permanent wall isn't available, making it possible to have a workshop almost anywhere.

Who will be leading the youth project sessions?

Each session is led by a professional graffiti artist with years of experience. These aren't just teachers; they are active members of the street art community who live and breathe this culture. They are fantastic at connecting with young people, sharing their personal stories, and teaching the real techniques used by pros. You get the authentic experience from people who actually do the work.

Do the participants need to have any prior artistic skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a stick figure to budding Picassos. We start with the absolute basics of can control and basic lettering. Our artists provide step-by-step guidance and even have templates and sketches ready to help. Most participants are shocked by how good their final piece looks, even without any prior experience.

How long does a typical graffiti workshop last?

Our standard youth project workshops usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, sketching, practicing with the cans, and then completing a final masterpiece. If you are looking for a more intensive multi-day project or a large-scale mural, we can easily extend the format to fit your specific schedule and goals.

What items do we need to provide for the workshop?

We take care of everything so you don't have to worry about a thing! We provide all the premium spray paint in a huge variety of colours, specialized caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective gear (gloves, masks, suits), and the surfaces to paint on. We even bring sketches and inspiration. All you need to bring is your energy, some old clothes, and plenty of enthusiasm!

How do I book a workshop and when do I pay?

Booking is easy and stress-free. Since every youth project in Thika is unique, we recommend reaching out via our contact form for a custom quote. Once we agree on the details, we'll lock in the date. The best part? There is no upfront payment required! You can pay after the workshop is completed, ensuring you are 100% satisfied with the result.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your next youth event in Thika? It’s not just about getting messy (though that’s half the fun!); it’s about breaking barriers and building something huge. Here’s why our sessions are a total hit:

Confidence boost: Nothing beats the feeling of standing back and seeing a 10-foot mural you helped create. ✨
Teamwork in action: You have to communicate and coordinate to make sure the "S" matches the "T"—it's the ultimate team builder! 🤝

Safe & legal: We provide a controlled, legal environment where youth can explore graffiti without the risks. 🛡️
Inclusive fun: High energy, no "wrong" answers, and accessible to all skill levels—it’s pure creative freedom. 🎤
Stress-free booking: No deposits and backup artists on standby mean your project in Thika is guaranteed to happen! 🏆

Step by step

The warm-up: We start with a high-energy intro to graffiti culture, explaining the difference between 'tagging' and 'pieces'.
Sketching the vision: Participants grab markers and paper to plan their designs, learning how to structure letters and choose colour schemes.
Gear up: Safety first! Everyone gets fitted with professional masks, gloves, and protective overalls to look the part and stay safe.
Can control 101: Our artists demonstrate how to hold the can, swap nozzles (caps), and manage pressure for thin lines or thick fills.
The first spray: Under guided supervision, youth start practicing their movements on a practice surface to build confidence.
The masterpiece begins: It's time to hit the main wall or canvas! We start with the background and work our way forward.
Adding the 'pop': This is where we add outlines, highlights, and 3D effects to make the artwork jump off the surface.
The final tag: Everyone adds their personal signature to the collective work, claiming their spot in the Thika street art scene.
Photo op: We wrap up with a group photo session in front of the finished masterpiece to remember the day forever.

Local culture

Thika, known as the "Flame Trees City," is the perfect backdrop for a burst of urban creativity. While it's famous for its industrial heart and the stunning Chania Falls, there is a growing hunger for modern art and self-expression among the local youth. Our workshops tap into that local Thika energy, moving beyond traditional school subjects to give young people a voice that is loud, colourful, and impossible to ignore. We love seeing how Thika's unique mix of urban bustle and natural beauty inspires the colour palettes our participants choose.

Fun Fact: Did you know Thika was once a small tin-shack town and a major stop on the "Uganda Railway"? Today, it's a bustling hub where traditional Kenyan culture meets modern urban vibes—ideal for the evolution of street art! 🎨

Pricing

Every youth project we run in Thika is a bit different! Prices depend on your group size, the location, and the type of setup you need (like mobile walls vs. an existing mural area). We believe in fair, transparent pricing for community groups.

No upfront payment required – pay only after the workshop is done!
