How it works
- Intro and history: We kick things off with a high-energy chat about the roots of graffiti, moving from 1970s New York to the modern street art festivals seen across Portugal today.
- Safety briefing: Students get kitted out in their protective gear while we explain the 'golden rules' of using spray cans safely and respectfully.
- The first spray: Everyone gets their hands on a can! We start with basic lines, dots, and filling techniques on our practice walls to get everyone comfortable.
- Design phase: Working in teams, students brainstorm themes. Whether it's a school motto or a message about the environment, we help them sketch the plan.
- Outlining the piece: Our professional artists help the students scale up their designs onto the large-scale canvases or mobile walls.
- Filling and blending: This is where the magic happens! Students learn how to blend colours and create those iconic graffiti gradients.
- Adding the 'pop': We teach the tricks of the trade—highlights, 3D effects, and the final sharp outlines that make the artwork stand out.
- The big reveal: We step back to admire the finished mural. It's a fantastic photo opportunity and a moment of real pride for the students.
- Clean up: We handle all the tidying, leaving your school grounds exactly as we found them, just with a lot more creative energy in the air!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for school-aged children?
Absolutely! We prioritise safety above all else. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and disposable overalls to keep school uniforms clean. Our professional instructors are experienced in managing large groups of students and ensure that the spray paint is used responsibly in well-ventilated outdoor areas. It is a controlled, educational, and completely safe environment for children and teens.
How long does a typical school session last?
Our school workshops in Evora typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives students enough time to learn about the history of street art, practice their spraying techniques, and complete a final collaborative masterpiece or individual canvases. We can easily adjust the timing to fit into your school's specific timetable or extracurricular schedule without any hassle.
Where do the workshops take place in Evora?
We are fully mobile and usually come to your school premises in Evora! If you have a playground, a sports court, or a car park, we can set up our mobile plastic walls and protective flooring there. If your school doesn't have a suitable outdoor space, let us know – we can often help find a local creative spot nearby to host the event.
Do students need to have any prior artistic skills?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our artists guide the students through every step, from holding the can correctly to mastering 'fats' and 'skinnies' (different nozzle types). We focus on the process of creation and teamwork, ensuring that every student walks away feeling proud of what they’ve contributed to the final artwork, regardless of their drawing skills.
What should students wear on the day of the workshop?
We suggest that students wear comfortable clothing that they don't mind getting a little dusty, though we do provide full protective overalls. Since the workshops take place outdoors, please ensure students have appropriate clothing for the weather in Evora—sunscreen and hats for those bright Alentejo afternoons, or a warm jumper if it’s a bit chilly!
What happens if we need to cancel or if the weather is bad?
Graffitifun is unique because we never ask for upfront payments for our school workshops; you pay only after the event is successfully completed. Plus, we have a network of backup artists, so if an instructor falls ill, we always have a replacement ready. Our focus is on providing a stress-free, high-energy educational experience that connects history, art, and modern culture.
