How it works

  1. Introduction & safety: We start with a fun introduction to street art history and a vital safety briefing regarding the equipment.
  2. Idea brainstorming: Students work together or individually to sketch out their concepts on paper before touching a spray can.
  3. Can control: Our artists demonstrate how to hold the can, control pressure, and create different line thicknesses.
  4. Outline phase: The children begin by sketching their designs onto the wall or panels using light paint colours.
  5. Filling in: This is the vibrant part! Students learn how to apply solid colours and create smooth gradients.
  6. Adding details: We teach the kids how to add highlights and shadows to make their artwork "pop" off the surface.
  7. Final outlines: A sharp final outline is added to define the piece and give it that professional street art look.
  8. Group photo: We capture the proud moment with a group photo in front of the completed masterpiece.
  9. Tidy up: We ensure the area is left spotless, teaching the kids about respecting public spaces and local Bergen environments.

Frequently asked questions

Is the paint safe for primary school children?

Safety is our absolute priority. We use low-odour artist-grade spray paints and provide every student with high-quality FFP2 masks, protective gloves, and overalls. Our artists are experienced in managing large groups of children and ensure that everyone follows strict safety guidelines throughout the session. We also choose well-ventilated outdoor areas in Bergen to ensure a healthy and secure environment for all participants.

Do the students need any prior drawing skills?

Not at all! Our primary school workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our expert tutors guide the children through every step, from basic line work to filling in colours. We encourage creativity over technical perfection, making sure every child feels proud of what they’ve created by the end of the day. It’s all about building confidence and having fun with new artistic tools.

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard primary school workshop in Bergen typically lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This provides enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration, sketching, and the final spray painting session. We find this duration is perfect for maintaining the focus and energy levels of younger students while allowing them enough time to complete a high-quality piece of street art.

Where in Bergen do the workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible. We can host the workshop at your school premises if you have a suitable outdoor wall or open space. Alternatively, we can arrange for the session to take place at one of Bergen's designated legal graffiti zones. If you're worried about the weather, we can also set up mobile wooden panels in a sheltered area to ensure the fun continues.

What should the children wear on the day?

Students should wear comfortable clothing that they don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide full protective overalls and gloves, spray paint can be unpredictable! We also recommend wearing sturdy, closed-toe shoes. Beyond that, just bring plenty of enthusiasm and a sense of adventure—we provide all the artistic tools, paints, and safety gear required for the day.

When do we need to pay for the workshop?

At Graffitifun, we believe in the quality of our service. You don't need to pay anything upfront when booking your Bergen primary school workshop. We only send the invoice after the workshop has been successfully completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience before any payment is made. It’s a transparent and stress-free process for schools and teachers.

What happens if it rains in Bergen?

Bergen's weather is famous for its rain, but that won't stop us! We always have backup plans, such as using sheltered outdoor areas or setting up temporary gazebos. In the rare event of extreme weather, we have a roster of backup artists to ensure we can reschedule quickly. We work closely with school coordinators to ensure the workshop happens regardless of the Norwegian coastal weather.
