How it works

  1. Intro and safety: We kick things off with an energetic introduction to the world of street art and a vital safety briefing on how to use the gear.
  2. Sketching your ideas: Every great piece starts with a plan. Kids get to sketch their tags or characters on paper first, guided by our pros.
  3. Nozzle control: We teach the basics of 'can control,' showing how distance and pressure change the lines on the wall.
  4. Outline practice: Participants start their main work by outlining their designs, learning how to get those crisp, clean edges characteristic of graffiti.
  5. Filling in: Here’s where the colour happens! We experiment with different shades and filling techniques to make the art pop.
  6. Highlights and shadows: To give the work a 3D effect, we teach the tricks of adding highlights and drop shadows.
  7. The final tag: No piece is complete without the artist’s signature. Everyone adds their unique tag to their masterpiece.
  8. Group photo: We finish with a celebration and a photo session in front of the completed mural to capture the holiday memories.

Practical details

Our Aarhus school holiday sessions are designed to be hassle-free for parents. A typical workshop lasts approx. 2 hours, which includes all the "pro" gear: spray cans, caps, gloves, masks, and protective suits. We maintain small instructor-to-student ratios to ensure everyone gets personal guidance and stays safe. We can host these sessions at various legal spray locations across the city, or even at your own venue if suitable. No matter the group size, we have a team of backup artists on standby, so your booking is always secure and protected against last-minute changes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum age for the workshop?

For our Aarhus school holiday workshops, we usually recommend a minimum age of 8. This ensures that the kids have the physical strength to press the spray nozzles and the concentration to follow safety instructions. We use specialised low-pressure cans for younger artists to make the experience easier and more enjoyable, ensuring everyone can create something they are proud of by the end of the session.

Is the workshop safe for children?

Safety is our top priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including professional masks, gloves, and disposable overalls to protect clothing. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or legal spray zones in Aarhus. Every session begins with a comprehensive safety briefing, and our experienced artists closely supervise the group at all times to ensure the spray cans are used correctly and safely.

Do we need any previous artistic experience?

No prior experience is necessary at all! Our school holiday workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional Aarhus-based artists will guide the group through everything from holding the can to advanced shading techniques. Whether your child is a natural doodler or has never picked up a creative tool before, they will find the process engaging, accessible, and incredibly rewarding as their skills develop.

What should participants wear?

We recommend that kids wear comfortable, old clothes and sturdy shoes. Even though we provide protective overalls, graffiti can be a messy business, and paint has a habit of finding its way onto sleeves or trainers. It’s best to wear things you don’t mind getting a stray splash of colour on. Since Aarhus weather can be unpredictable, dressing in layers is also a smart move for outdoor sessions.

What happens if it rains on the day?

In the event of light rain, we often continue the workshop under cover or at a sheltered location. However, if the Aarhus weather is truly disruptive, we have a flexible rescheduling policy. Because we have a large team and backup artists available, we work hard to find an alternative slot during the holiday period so the kids don’t miss out on their creative experience. Safety and comfort always come first.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard school holiday workshop in Aarhus lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This timeframe is the 'sweet spot' for maintaining high energy levels and focus. It allows enough time for the intro, safety briefing, practice session, and the creation of a final masterpiece. We find that this duration ensures everyone leaves feeling inspired without becoming overly tired, particularly for our younger street artists.

Do I need to pay in advance?

We don't require any upfront payment! We believe in the quality of our workshops and want you to feel confident in your booking. You can pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. We offer various payment methods to make it as easy as possible for parents and organisers. Once you've confirmed your date and group size with us, you're all set to go.
