Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for secondary school students?

Absolutely! We take safety very seriously. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and overall suits to keep everyone safe and clean. Our instructors are professional artists who have years of experience managing school groups. We use low-odour professional spray paint specifically designed for ease of use, ensuring a safe, controlled environment for your secondary school students throughout the entire Oslo workshop experience.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

The workshop usually lasts between 2 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, a safety briefing, a practice session on a 'learning wall', and the final creation of their masterpiece. We can adjust the timing to fit your specific school timetable in Oslo, making it easy to integrate into a standard school day or an after-school enrichment programme.

Where in Oslo do the workshops take place?

We are totally flexible! We can host the workshop at various outdoor locations across Oslo that allow street art, or we can bring the mobile graffiti wall directly to your school grounds. If you have a playground or a sports field, we can set up there. In case of typical Norwegian rain, we can discuss indoor options using water-based, low-odour paints or specific well-ventilated areas.

Do students need any prior art experience to participate?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to budding artists. Our Graffitifun instructors guide students through basic techniques like 'tagging', 'outlining', and 'shading' step-by-step. The goal is to build confidence and have fun with creativity. You’ll be amazed at the high-quality murals students can produce by the end of the session with just a little professional guidance.

What materials are included in the workshop package?

We provide everything needed for a successful street art session. This includes all premium spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gear (suits, gloves, masks), caps (nozzles), and the canvas or wall space itself. Students just need to show up in comfortable clothes and shoes they don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on. We handle the setup and the cleanup!

What are the educational benefits of a graffiti workshop?

Graffiti is a fantastic tool for team building and social development. It encourages students to communicate, share space, and collaborate on a large-scale project. It’s also a powerful way to engage 'non-traditional' learners who might struggle in a standard classroom setting. By working together on a mural, students in Oslo learn about mutual respect, creative problem solving, and the value of contributing to a collective community goal.

How do we book a workshop and what is the payment process?

Booking is easy! Use our online Cost Calculator for a quick estimate, or send us an enquiry via our contact form. We don't require any upfront payment—you can pay after the workshop is completed. Once we agree on a date and location in Oslo, we’ll handle the rest, including assigning a lead artist and a backup artist to ensure your event goes ahead no matter what.
