Why choose us in Braga?

Choosing a Graffitifun session for your after-school programme in Braga means choosing more than just a painting lesson. It’s an immersive experience that bridges the gap between traditional education and urban culture. Here is why our workshops are a hit:

  • Expert guidance: Learn from real street artists who live and breathe the culture.
  • Boosts confidence: Seeing a large-scale mural come to life gives students a massive sense of achievement.
  • Teaches respect: we educate kids on the difference between art and illegal tagging, fostering respect for public property.
  • Stress-free booking: No deposits and we have backup artists ready to go, so your event is never cancelled.
  • Local expertise: We know the best spots in Braga and the surrounding Faro, Coimbra, and Porto areas for legal street art.
  • Physical and creative: It gets kids moving and thinking outside the box—literally!

How it works

  1. Intro and history: We kick off the workshop by teaching the kids about the origins of street art and the difference between graffiti and vandalism.
  2. Safety briefing: Every student gets kitted out with professional masks and gloves while we explain the rules of the workshop.
  3. Can control: Our artists demonstrate how to hold the spray can, how to control pressure, and how to achieve different line widths.
  4. Sketching ideas: Students grab paper and markers to draft their tags or 'pieces' before they move onto the big canvas.
  5. First strokes: The kids head to the wall or boards to practice their outlines and get a feel for the paint on a vertical surface.
  6. Filling and fading: We teach the fun stuff—how to fill in shapes with vibrant colours and create smooth gradients or 'fades'.
  7. Outline and highlights: Students learn to 'pop' their artwork using sharp outlines and white highlights for a 3D effect.
  8. The finishing touches: Our pro artists help the kids add those little details that make the final artwork look like a professional mural.
  9. Photo session: We wrap up by taking group photos of the students with their masterpieces to show off to parents and teachers!

Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti after school programme safe for children?

Absolutely! At Graffitifun, we prioritise safety above all else. Our graffiti artists provide high-quality respiratory masks and protective gloves for every student. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for kids to control, and our workshops always take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated legal art zones in Braga to ensure everyone stays safe while being creative.

What is the minimum age for participants?

For our Braga workshop, we generally recommend kids be at least 8 years old. This is because spray cans require a certain level of hand strength and coordination to operate effectively. However, we can adapt our curriculum for slightly younger groups using stencil techniques or paint markers if needed—just give us a shout to discuss your specific group's needs.

Do the students need any previous art experience?

No artistic talent is required at all! Our professional graffiti artists are experts at breaking down complex street art techniques into simple, manageable steps. We teach everything from basic lines to 3D effects. Most students are amazed at what they can create in just 90 minutes, even if they've never picked up a spray can before.

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

We always have a Plan B in Braga! If the weather turns against us, we can often relocate to a covered outdoor area or use an indoor space with water-based, odourless markers and specialized design techniques. Alternatively, because we don't require upfront payments, we are flexible with rescheduling to a drier day when the sun is shining over the Minho region.

Are all materials included in the session price?

We provide everything needed for a complete street art experience. This includes all spray paint in a vibrant range of colours, protective gear (masks, gloves, and ponchos), and the surfaces to paint on. We even bring professional sketches to inspire the kids. All you need to provide is a group of enthusiastic students ready to get creative!

How long does a typical after-school session last?

Our workshops in Braga typically last between 1.5 to 2 hours. This provides the perfect balance of time to learn the history of graffiti, practice basic strokes, and complete a final group masterpiece or individual piece. We can adjust the duration slightly to fit your specific after-school schedule if you have a shorter or longer time slot available.

Where exactly in Braga do the workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible. We can bring the workshop directly to your school grounds if you have a suitable outdoor space, or we can host the group at one of Braga's legal 'Hall of Fame' graffiti walls. This gives the kids an authentic street art experience in a real-world environment while remaining completely legal and supervised by our professional team.
