Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for children during the school holidays?

Absolutely! At Graffitifun, safety is our top priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves. Our workshops in Athens are led by experienced professional artists who supervise the entire process, ensuring that the spray cans are used correctly and safely. We create a controlled, fun environment where kids and teenagers can express themselves without any risks, giving parents total peace of mind during the school holidays.

What is the minimum age for participants?

For our school holiday workshops in Athens, we generally recommend a minimum age of 8 years old. This ensures that the participants have the physical strength to handle the spray cans and the focus to follow the creative instructions. However, we can often adapt our sessions for slightly younger children if they are part of a family group. Our goal is to make street art accessible and enjoyable for all young creators!

What should my child wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable trainers that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can be a messy business, and stray droplets of spray paint have a habit of finding their way onto sleeves or shoes! Dressing for a bit of creative mess ensures that you can focus entirely on your masterpiece rather than worrying about your outfit.

Do we need any previous drawing or painting experience?

Don't worry – that's exactly why we are here! Our Athens workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional street artists will guide everyone through the process, from basic lines and fades to creating their very own tags. We find that kids who think they aren't 'artistic' often discover a hidden talent once they get a spray can in their hands. It's all about fun and experimentation.

What happens if we need to cancel or change our booking?

We understand that plans can change during the school holidays. While we appreciate as much notice as possible, one of the best things about Graffitifun is our flexibility. We have a large team of backup artists in Greece, meaning we can almost always accommodate your booking. Plus, with our 'pay after the workshop' policy, you don't have to worry about losing money if you need to reschedule or cancel in advance.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard school holiday workshop in Athens typically lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This provides enough time for a safety briefing, an introduction to techniques, and the creation of a full-scale graffiti piece. If you have a larger group or want a more intensive masterclass, we can easily extend the duration to 3 hours. We keep the energy high so the kids stay engaged from start to finish!
