How it works
- Intro and history: We kick things off with a high-energy look at the history of street art and its evolution from underground tagging to global gallery art.
- Safety briefing: Every student gets kitted out with gloves and masks while we explain how to use the equipment safely and responsibly.
- Sketching your ideas: Before we touch the paint, students grab paper and pencils to map out their designs, learning about letter structures and 'wildstyle'.
- Can control 101: Our pro artists demonstrate different nozzles (caps) and show the students how to control pressure, distance, and angle.
- Outline and fill-in: The students hit the wall or canvas! They start by outlining their piece and filling it with vibrant, bold colours.
- Adding the 'pop': We teach them how to add 3D effects, shadows, and highlights to make their artwork jump off the surface.
- Final touches: Students refine their work with sharp outlines and maybe a few 'drips' or 'splatters' for that authentic street feel.
- The big reveal: We take a group photo with the finished masterpiece! It's a huge confidence booster for the whole class.
- Tidy up: We handle the pack-down and ensure the site is left spotless, leaving only the beautiful art behind.

Frequently asked questions
Is graffiti painting safe for students and schoolchildren?
Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks and gloves. Our professional artists are expert instructors who supervise every spray, ensuring a controlled and safe environment. We use low-odour paints whenever possible and choose well-ventilated outdoor areas for our school workshops in Kuching. Your students are in very safe hands with Graffitifun.
How long does a typical school workshop last?
A standard school workshop usually lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This timeframe allows enough room for a cool introduction to street art history, sketching time, and the actual painting process. However, we are totally flexible! If you have a specific school timetable to stick to or want a full-day intensive creative session, we can easily adapt the schedule to fit your school's needs.
Where do the workshops take place in Kuching?
We are very versatile! We can set up temporary wooden panels or large canvases on your school grounds in Kuching. If your school has a specific wall that needs a makeover, we can also arrange for a permanent mural project. Alternatively, we can help find a local legal graffiti spot or use a partner venue. We bring everything needed to protect the surrounding area from overspray.
Do the students need to have prior art skills?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our artist-instructors break down the techniques into simple, manageable steps that anyone can follow. We focus on boosting confidence and self-expression rather than perfection. You'll be amazed at how quickly students go from never holding a spray can to creating something they are genuinely proud of. It is all about the 'wow' factor!
What age group are these workshops suitable for?
We usually recommend the workshops for students aged 8 and up, as they need a certain level of physical strength and coordination to operate the spray cans effectively. However, for younger primary school groups, we can adapt the session using markers or water-based alternatives. We work with primary schools, secondary schools, colleges, and even universities across Sarawak, tailoring the complexity of the art to the age group.
How do we book a session and what about payment?
It's simple and stress-free! You can request a quote through our website based on your estimated group size. Once we agree on a date and the details, your booking is secured. The best part? There is no upfront payment required. You only pay after the workshop is completed and everyone is happy. This makes the administration process for schools and teachers much easier!
