How it works
- Introduction & History: Our pro artists start with a brief, high-energy talk about the history of graffiti, from New York subways to the vibrant streets of Fortaleza.
- Safety First: We gear up! Every student gets a protective mask, gloves, and an apron to keep those school uniforms clean and everyone breathing easy.
- Can Control 101: Before hitting the wall, students learn how to hold a spray can, control the pressure, and create different line widths and effects.
- Sketching the Vision: Students grab paper and markers to brainstorm their designs, focusing on letters, characters, and bold colour palettes.
- The First Layer: Under the guidance of our artists, students start applying the background colours to our professional graffiti boards.
- Outline & Fill: This is where the magic happens! Students learn how to fill in their sketches with vibrant colours and bold outlines.
- Highlights & Details: We teach the tricks of the trade—adding 'shines', 3D effects, and those final 'pops' that make the artwork stand out.
- The Masterpiece Reveal: The group steps back to admire their collective work. It’s the perfect moment for photos and a huge sense of achievement!
- Clean Up & Wrap Up: We pack away the gear, leaving the site spotless, while the students head back to class buzzing with creative energy.

Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?
Absolutely! At Graffitifun, safety is our main priority. We provide high-quality protective masks, gloves, and overalls to every student. We use low-odour professional spray paint and conduct our sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large halls. Our artist-instructors are highly experienced in managing school groups and ensuring everyone follows safety protocols while having a blast. It’s a controlled, educational, and totally safe environment for creative expression.
What is the minimum age for students to participate?
We recommend our Fortaleza school workshops for students aged 8 and up. At this age, children have the motor skills to handle the spray cans effectively and can follow the safety instructions. We adapt our teaching style based on the age group, whether they are primary school pupils exploring colours or secondary students diving into complex typography and social messaging through street art.
How long does a typical school workshop last?
Our standard school workshops in Fortaleza typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. However, we are super flexible! If you need a shorter 'taster' session to fit into a double period, or a full-day intensive creative project to paint a permanent school mural, we can customise the schedule to meet your curriculum needs. Just let us know your timetable, and we will make it work.
Do students need any prior drawing or painting skills?
No way! One of the best things about graffiti art is that anyone can do it. Our professional artists guide students through every step, from basic 'tags' to complex 'pieces'. We focus on the process and the fun of creation. Even students who don't consider themselves 'artistic' usually find a hidden talent for spray painting and walk away feeling hugely accomplished.
Where do the workshops take place in Fortaleza?
We can bring the workshop right to your school grounds! As long as there is an outdoor space or a very well-ventilated area, we can set up our mobile plastic walls. Alternatively, we can arrange for your group to visit a legal street art location in Fortaleza for a truly immersive city experience. We provide all the gear, including paint, boards, and protective clothing.
Can the workshop be tailored to a specific educational theme?
Our workshops can definitely be linked to various subjects! Beyond Art and Design, we can focus on History (the evolution of street art), Social Studies (urban culture and community), or even specific themes like environmentalism or local Fortaleza history. Let us know if you have a specific educational goal, and our artists will tailor their talk and the practical project to match.
