Is the graffiti workshop safe for school pupils?

Absolutely! At Graffitifun, safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including FFP2 masks and gloves, to all students. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated legal spaces. Our professional artists are experienced in managing large school groups, ensuring a controlled, respectful, and safe environment where the only thing to worry about is being creative.

What is the ideal group size for a school booking?

The ideal group size for an educational workshop in Athens ranges from 15 to 30 students per artist. However, we have the capacity to host much larger groups by bringing in additional professional backup artists. This ensures every student gets personal guidance. Whether you are bringing a single class or an entire school year, we can scale the event to meet your specific requirements.

Do the students need any previous art experience?

No prior artistic skill or experience is needed at all. Our workshops are designed to be inclusive and accessible. We teach the basics from scratch, starting with how to hold the spray can and control the pressure. Many students who don't consider themselves 'traditionally' artistic find that they thrive with graffiti, as it is a very physical and forgiving medium that builds confidence quickly.

Can the workshop be held at our school premises?

We pride ourselves on being flexible. While we have amazing legal graffiti walls across Athens that we prefer to use for the authentic experience, we can also bring the workshop to your school grounds. In these cases, we use large mobile plastic walls or canvases. We take care of all the protection for the surrounding area to ensure no unwanted paint ends up on school property.

How do we handle payments and cancellations?

We understand that school budgets and plans can change. That is why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy for educational institutions. You don't need to worry about upfront deposits to secure your date. We also have a pool of backup artists available, so even if an instructor falls ill, your school trip will always go ahead as planned.

How long does a typical school session last?

A standard school workshop typically lasts between 90 minutes and 2.5 hours. This includes the safety briefing, the history of street art, technique practice, and the final creation of a large-scale group mural. We can adjust the duration to fit into your school's specific timetable or broaden the session into a full-day intensive art project if you prefer.

Introduction and history: We start with a brief, engaging talk about the origins of graffiti and how it evolved into the modern street art seen across Athens today.
Safety briefing: Students are fitted with protective masks and gloves while learning the essential 'do's and don'ts' of using spray paint safely.
Mastering the can: Our artists demonstrate basic techniques, such as creating dots, fine lines, and wide fills, allowing students to practice on a 'trial' section.
Sketching the concept: Working in small teams, students sketch out their ideas on paper, brainstorming themes that reflect their school values or local Greek culture.
Outline and structure: The artists help the students transfer their sketches onto the wall or canvas, setting the foundation for the masterpiece.
Filling and blending: This is the fun part! Students use a variety of colours to fill in their designs, learning about colour theory and blending techniques along the way.
The final outline: We teach the trick of the 'final outline' and adding 'highlights' to make the artwork pop and look professionally finished.
Group photo and reflection: We wrap up by admiring the collective mural, taking group photos, and discussing what the students learned about teamwork and creativity.
