Why choose us in Miami?

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your Miami after-school program? It’s more than just painting; it’s a way to engage students who might not excel in traditional settings. Here’s why we’re a hit:

  • Confidence boost: Nothing beats the feeling of seeing your name in 6-foot-tall letters! 🚀
  • Stress relief: Spraying paint is a physical, tactile, and incredibly therapeutic outlet for kids.
  • Cultural connection: We connect students to Miami's rich history of urban art and muralism.
  • Teamwork: Our large-scale collaborative pieces require kids to communicate and plan together. 🤝
  • No-risk booking: No upfront payment required—you only pay after the workshop is a success! 🎉
  • Reliability: With our backup artist pool, your event will never be canceled due to scheduling issues.

How it works

  1. Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy introduction to the world of graffiti and its history in Miami's culture.
  2. Safety first: Every student gets geared up with protective gloves, masks, and ponchos while learning can-control basics.
  3. Sketching the vision: Students grab markers and paper to brainstorm their tags and designs before touching the walls.
  4. Mastering the nozzle: Our pros demonstrate different spray techniques, from thin outlines to bold fills and fades.
  5. Outline & fill: The "real" work begins! Students start applying their base colors and filling in their larger-than-life letters.
  6. Adding the "pop": We teach how to add highlights, 3D effects, and shadows to make the artwork jump off the surface.
  7. The clean finish: A final sharp outline is applied to give the piece that professional, polished street art look.
  8. Photo op & cleanup: We snap group photos with the finished masterpiece so everyone has a memory of their achievement!

Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for children?

Absolutely! At Graffitifun, safety is our top priority. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for kids to control and provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and ponchos. Our professional instructors are experienced in working with youth and supervise every second of the session. We ensure a well-ventilated outdoor environment so the kids can focus entirely on having a blast while staying completely safe.

Do the kids need to have any drawing experience?

No prior talent is needed at all! Our Miami workshops are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to budding artists. Our instructors break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We focus on the 'fun' in Graffitifun, ensuring every student feels proud of what they create. It is a great way for kids to build confidence while exploring a new medium they don't usually see in art class.

What should the students wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a little 'artistic' on. While we provide protective ponchos and gloves, spray paint can sometimes find its way onto sleeves or shoes. Miami's weather is usually warm, so breathable clothing is best. We provide all the professional art supplies, so you just need to bring your creativity and plenty of energy!

How long does a typical after-school session last?

A standard after-school graffiti session in Miami usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This provides enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, sketching ideas, and the final painting phase. If you have a specific schedule to meet, we can easily customize the duration to fit your program's needs without rushing the creative process.

Can the workshop take place at our school?

We are totally flexible! We can host the workshop at a vibrant local street art spot in Miami, or we can bring the entire experience to your school or community center. If we come to you, we use mobile graffiti walls or large canvases and ensure everything is shielded to keep the school grounds clean. We bring the 'street' to you in a controlled, professional way.

What are the costs for an after-school group?

Our pricing is quite flexible, ranging from $35 to $75 per person. The final cost depends on the number of students participating, the duration of the session, and whether we are providing individual canvases for them to take home. We specialize in group bookings and offer competitive rates for larger after-school programs. You can even use our online Cost Calculator for a quick estimate!

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

We don't want any kid to miss out because of the weather! If Miami's famous rain showers show up, we have backup plans. We can move the session to a covered outdoor area or an indoor space using specialized water-based paint markers and sketching materials. Additionally, we have backup artists available to ensure your event never gets canceled due to staff emergencies. Your creative plans are safe with us!
