Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?
Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide all students with FFP3 masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep their clothes clean. Our instructors are professional artists who are experienced in managing large school groups. We use high-quality spray paint and conduct sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated spaces to ensure a safe, fun, and healthy environment for everyone involved. Participation is always supervised and structured.
How long does a typical school session last?
A standard school workshop in Jönköping usually lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows us to cover the history of street art, practice basic techniques on plastic wrap or boards, and then let the students complete their final masterpiece. We can also adjust the timing to fit into your specific school timetable or double-period blocks, ensuring the session fits perfectly into your educational day.
Where in Jönköping do the workshops take place?
We are very flexible! We can host the workshop at your school grounds using mobile walls or plastic sheeting between pillars, which means no permanent marks are left behind. Alternatively, we can arrange for the session to take place at a local creative spot in Jönköping. We bring all the necessary equipment to you, making it incredibly easy to integrate into your school's physical education or art curriculum.
Do the students need any prior art experience?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels. Whether a student is a natural-born illustrator or has never held a spray can before, our artists provide step-by-step guidance. We focus on the 'fun' aspect of creativity, helping every student build confidence and walk away with a piece of art they are proud of. It’s about expression, not just technical perfection.
What are the educational benefits of a graffiti workshop?
Graffiti is a brilliant tool for education. It teaches students about colour theory, typography, and scale, but also addresses important social themes like public space, respect, and the difference between vandalism and street art. It encourages teamwork during collaborative pieces and boosts individual self-esteem. Many schools in Sweden use our workshops to engage students who might struggle with more traditional, desk-based learning environments.
What should students wear and bring on the day?
We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable shoes, just in case! While we provide full protective overalls, sometimes a little splash of paint can find its way onto a sleeve or a shoe. We provide everything else: the spray cans, caps, masks, gloves, and the surfaces to paint on. You just need to bring your energy and creativity—we handle all the messy logistics!
