Why choose us in Zagreb?

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your primary school in Zagreb? Beyond just being a "cool" activity, it offers serious educational and social benefits for children: 🔥

  • Boosts confidence: Seeing a massive piece of art completed by their own hands gives kids a huge sense of achievement.
  • Teamwork in action: Students must communicate and cooperate to ensure their individual sections blend into one cohesive mural.
  • Physical coordination: Using spray cans helps develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination in a unique way.
  • Safe expression: We teach children the difference between vandalism and legal street art, encouraging responsible creativity.
  • Stress-free for teachers: We handle the setup, the teaching, and the cleanup. You just get to enjoy watching your students thrive! 🎤
  • Professional Artists: Our crew doesn't just paint; they are experienced educators who know how to inspire young minds.

How it works

  1. Intro and street art history: We start with a high-energy talk about the roots of graffiti and how it evolved into the global street art scene we see today.
  2. Safety first: Every student gets kitted out in professional protective gear, and we explain the Dos and Don'ts of using spray cans.
  3. Mastering the tools: Our artists demonstrate different 'caps' (nozzles) and show how to control the pressure and distance of the spray.
  4. Sketching the vision: Students work together to sketch out their ideas on paper before moving to the 'big canvas'.
  5. First lines: The kids take turns making their first marks on the wall or plastic canvas, getting a feel for the paint.
  6. Colour and fill: This is where the magic happens! We teach the kids how to fill in large areas and create vibrant colour transitions.
  7. The outline and highlights: To make the art pop, we guide them through adding sharp outlines and 'shines' to their letters or characters.
  8. Group photo and cleanup: We celebrate the finished masterpiece with a big group photo—perfect for the school newsletter!

Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for primary school children?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits for every student. Our professional artists are trained to supervise children, ensuring they use the spray cans correctly and stay within the designated 'painting zone'. We use low-odour professional paints and conduct all sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas, making it a completely safe and controlled environment for primary schoolers.

How long does the workshop usually last?

A standard primary school workshop in Zagreb typically lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This timeframe is perfect for maintaining the students' attention spans. It includes a safety briefing, a crash course in street art history, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time. We can also adjust the duration to fit into your specific school timetable if required.

What is the ideal group size for a school session?

We are very flexible! Whether you have a small art club of 15 students or an entire year group of 60+, we can make it work. For larger groups, we simply bring along more professional artists and set up multiple 'spray stations' to ensure every child gets plenty of individual attention and coaching. We recommend a minimum group size of 10 for the best atmosphere.

Do we need to travel to a studio, or do you come to our school?

The best part? We bring the workshop to you! We usually set up on the school playground, a sports court, or even against a designated school wall if you've given us the 'okay' to make it permanent. If your school doesn't have a suitable outdoor space, let us know – we have several partner locations around Zagreb where we can host your group safely.

What do the students need to bring with them?

Nothing at all! Graffitifun provides everything required for a successful day of art. This includes all premium spray paint, various nozzle types (caps), protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and large plastic canvases or wooden panels to paint on. We even bring boards to cover the ground so your school's pavement stays clean. Students just need to wear comfortable, old clothes and bring their enthusiasm!

Do the children need any prior artistic experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for complete beginners. Our expert artists break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to more complex 'fills' and 'outlines'. You'll be amazed at how quickly the children pick it up – by the end of the session, they will have created a collaborative masterpiece they can be proud of.

What happens if we need to cancel or change the date?

We understand that school plans can change. That’s why we don’t require any upfront payment to secure your booking. You only pay after the workshop is successfully completed. If the weather looks terrible, we can usually reschedule for a sunnier day in Zagreb without any fuss. We also have a team of backup artists ready to go, so we never have to cancel on you!
