Why choose us in Amsterdam?

A communion is a special occasion, and finding entertainment that bridges the gap between traditional and trendy can be a challenge. Here is why our graffiti workshops are the top choice for families in Amsterdam:

Creative freedom: Instead of passive entertainment, kids get to actively create something beautiful and expressive.
Unique party favours: If you choose the canvas option, every guest takes home a piece of art they created themselves.
Professional supervision: Our artists are not just talented; they are great with kids and experts at managing party groups.
No mess for you: We provide full protective clothing and ground covers, ensuring the venue stays exactly as we found it.
Perfect for all ages: While focused on the communicant, the activity is engaging for siblings, cousins, and even the "cool" aunties and uncles.
Stress-free booking: With no deposit and a 100% satisfaction guarantee, you can plan your party with total peace of mind.

How it works

Initial enquiry: Contact us with your preferred date, group size, and location in Amsterdam to check availability.
Design consultation: We'll chat about the theme of the communion and any specific colours or names you'd like to incorporate into the art.
Artist arrival: On the big day, our professional artist arrives at your venue early to set up the protective floor coverings and workstations.
Safety briefing: We gather the group for a quick, fun introduction to spray can safety and how to use the protective gear.
Technique practice: Before hitting the big boards, kids learn "can control"—how to draw lines, dots, and fills.
Creation phase: Under expert guidance, the children begin the main artwork, layering colours and adding their personal touch.
Finishing flourishes: Our artist helps with the fine details and outlines to ensure the final result looks professional.
Photo op & clean up: We take group photos with the artwork, and then our team handles the entire clean-up process, leaving no mess behind.

Frequently asked questions

Can parents and older family members participate in the workshop?

Absolutely! While the kids get to unleash their creativity on the boards, we often find that parents and godparents can't resist picking up a spray can too. It is a fantastic way for different generations to bond over a shared creative project. We provide enough protective gear and paint for everyone to join in the fun safely.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for children during a communion celebration?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep everyone's clothes clean. Our professional artists supervise the group at all times, ensuring that the spray cans are used correctly and safely. We also use low-odour paints where possible to ensure a comfortable environment for all guests.

What kind of space do I need to provide for the workshop?

Ideally, we recommend an outdoor space with good ventilation, such as a garden, driveway, or a local park area in Amsterdam. However, if the weather doesn't play ball, we can arrange for indoor locations that meet specific ventilation requirements or use special water-based spray paints. We are very flexible and can usually find a solution for any venue.

How long does the graffiti session typically last?

Our standard communion workshops typically last between 1.5 and 2 hours. This provides enough time for a thorough safety briefing, practicing basic lines and shapes, and then creating a final masterpiece on a large canvas or individual boards. We can adjust the timing slightly to fit perfectly within your party schedule.

What materials do we need to provide for the workshop?

You don't need to worry about a thing! Graffitifun provides everything required for a successful street art session. This includes a wide array of premium spray paint colours, caps, protective clothing (suits, masks, gloves), and the canvases or boards that the children will paint on. You just need to provide the enthusiastic young artists!

Do the children need to have any prior drawing or painting experience?

Not at all. Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional street artists will guide the children through every step, from how to hold the can to creating cool effects like fades and drips. By the end of the session, every child – regardless of their initial artistic skill – will have created something they are proud of.

What do the children actually get to paint on?

We offer a range of options! Common choices include a large collective mural where everyone contributes to one big piece of art for the communicant, or individual canvas boards (approx. 40x50cm) that each guest can take home as a unique party favour. We can discuss which option best suits your celebration during the booking process.
