How it works
- Initial enquiry: You get in touch with our team in Bratislava to discuss your school's needs, group size, and preferred dates.
- Custom concept design: We work together to decide on a theme—whether it is a school value, a specific curriculum topic, or a free-expression project.
- Safety and theory intro: On the day, we start with a fun intro about graffiti culture and a vital safety briefing regarding the equipment.
- Technical practice: Students learn 'can control,' experimenting with different nozzles (caps) to create lines, dots, and fades on practice surfaces.
- Sketching the mural: Under our guidance, students help sketch the outlines of the main project onto the wall or large wooden panels.
- Filling and blending: This is where the colour happens! Students work together to fill in the piece, learning how to blend colours and create gradients.
- Outlining and highlights: Our professional artists help students add the final sharp outlines and 'shines' that make the artwork pop.
- Final review and photos: We finish with a group discussion about the work and take plenty of photos of the students with their masterpiece.
- Easy payment: After the workshop is complete and everyone is happy, we finalise the payment process without any upfront stress.
Practical details
Our school workshops are designed to be as easy as possible for teachers to organise. We provide all the necessary professional equipment, including premium low-pressure spray paint (easier for beginners to control), high-grade respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits. Sessions typically last between 2 and 3 hours, but we can adapt to your school's bell schedule. We prioritise safety above all else, ensuring all students are briefed on proper technique and equipment use. We can host the workshop at your school premises (if a suitable outdoor space is available) or at one of our dedicated legal graffiti spots in Bratislava.
Pricing
We offer competitive rates to ensure our workshops are accessible to as many schools as possible. Our pricing typically ranges from €15 to €35 per student. This price is all-inclusive of materials, artist fees, and protective gear. The final cost depends on the total number of participants, the duration of the session, and whether we are creating a permanent mural on your school grounds. Because every school project is unique, we recommend reaching out for a personalised offer.
Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti workshop safe for children and teenagers?
Absolutely. We prioritise the health and safety of your students above all else. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls for every participant. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designated legal walls in Bratislava. Our facilitators are trained professionals who maintain strict supervision throughout the entire session to ensure everyone stays safe while having fun.
Do students need any previous art experience?
No prior artistic skills are needed! Our workshops are designed to be inclusive and accessible for everyone, regardless of their drawing ability. We start with the absolute basics, teaching students how to hold the can and control the pressure. It is amazing to see how quickly even the most hesitant students gain confidence and produce something they are truly proud of by the end.
What should the students wear on the day?
Ideally, students should wear old clothes and comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide full-body protective suits and gloves, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or shoes. We recommend dressing for the weather since most of our Bratislava school workshops are held at outdoor locations to ensure proper ventilation.
What happens if the weather in Bratislava is bad?
In the event of light rain, we can often continue under cover or use portable gazebos. For heavy rain or storms, we offer the flexibility to reschedule to a later date at no extra cost, or we can move the workshop to a pre-arranged indoor covered area if available. Our backup artist system also ensures that your event goes ahead even if a specific facilitator is unavailable.
How long does a typical school session last?
A standard school workshop usually lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This includes the safety briefing, an introduction to graffiti history, practicing basic techniques, and the final creation of a large-scale group mural or individual pieces. We can easily adjust the duration to fit into your school's specific timetable or double-block periods.
What is the maximum group size for a school workshop?
We are incredibly flexible and can accommodate everything from a small art club of 10 students to an entire year group of 100+. For very large groups, we bring in additional professional artists and rotate students through different stations to ensure everyone gets enough hands-on time with the spray cans and receives personal guidance from our team.
Do we need to pay in advance?
We believe in the quality of our service, which is why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront deposits or hidden fees. Once the workshop is finished and you are 100% satisfied with the experience we provided for your students, we will handle the final invoicing. It's stress-free and straightforward for your school's administration.
