Frequently asked questions

Is the street art workshop safe for people with physical disabilities?

Absolutely! At our Limerick workshop, we prioritise accessibility for all. We use lightweight cans for those with limited grip strength, provide masks and gloves, and offer seated spraying options. Our professional artists are trained to adapt their teaching style to meet the specific sensory and physical needs of every participant, ensuring everyone can enjoy the thrill of street art safely.

How do you handle sensory sensitivities during the workshop?

We understand that some environments can be overwhelming. To ensure a comfortable experience, we can adjust the music volume, choose quieter outdoor locations, and provide clear, step-by-step visual instructions. Participants are always welcome to take breaks in a quiet space if they need a moment. Our goal is to create a stress-free, inclusive atmosphere where everyone feels empowered to create.

How long does the graffiti session last?

Our special needs graffiti workshops in Limerick typically last between 1.5 and 2 hours. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for maintaining engagement and energy without causing fatigue. However, we are completely flexible! If your group needs a shorter session or a more relaxed pace with more frequent breaks, we’ll tailor the schedule to suit you.

Do we need to bring our own supplies or safety gear?

You don't need to bring a thing! Graffitifun provides everything: high-quality spray paint, protective overalls, gloves, masks, and the canvases or surfaces we'll be painting on. For special needs groups, we also bring along extra-easy nozzles (caps) that require less finger pressure to use. Just wear comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on!

Can the workshop come to our specific location in Limerick?

A huge benefit of our service is flexibility. While we have great locations in Limerick, we can also bring the workshop to you! If your group feels more comfortable at a specific community centre, school, or residential facility, our mobile team can set up a professional, safe graffiti zone right on your doorstep, provided there is adequate outdoor space.

What is the cost for a private group session?

Our pricing is designed to be affordable and transparent, typically ranging from €30 to €60 per person. The final cost depends on the number of participants, the duration of the workshop, and any specific custom requirements your group might have. We don't require upfront payments, and we always provide a detailed, no-obligation quote before you book.
