How it works
- Intro to street culture: We kick off with a high-energy talk about the history of graffiti, from New York subways to the vibrant streets of Malaga's Soho district.
- Mastering the gear: Students get kitted out in protective suits and masks while learning exactly how the spray cans and different 'caps' (nozzles) work.
- First lines and tags: Under the guidance of our pros, students head to the wall to practice basic strokes, dots, and their own unique 'tag' or signature.
- Sketching the concept: We move on to the drawing board! Students brainstorm a theme—perhaps a school value or a local Malaga landmark—and sketch their design.
- Filling and fading: This is where the magic happens. We teach the kids how to fill in large areas efficiently and how to create those iconic graffiti colour gradients.
- The power of the outline: To make the art pop, students learn the 'power line' technique, adding a sharp outline to their letters to create a 3D effect.
- Final details and highlights: We add the finishing touches, like white highlights and 'stars', to give the mural a professional, glossy finish.
- The big reveal & photos: We step back to admire the collective masterpiece. It’s the perfect time for group photos and a final cheers to the new artists!

Is the graffiti workshop safe for students?
Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits to all students. Our professional artists lead every session with a comprehensive safety briefing, ensuring all cans are handled correctly. Since we work outdoors in the fresh Malaga air, ventilation is never an issue. We use professional-grade materials that are safe for student use under our expert supervision.
Can you host the workshop at our school in Malaga?
Absolutely! We can bring the entire setup to your school grounds if you have a suitable outdoor wall or if we use our mobile wooden canvases. Alternatively, we can host your group at one of Malaga's designated street art zones. Whether it's your playground or a local creative hub, we handle all the logistics to make sure the experience is seamless and mess-free for the school.
How long does a typical school workshop last?
Our school workshops usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe is perfect for a deep dive into the culture, a solid practice session, and the completion of a final masterpiece. We can easily adjust the duration to fit into your school's specific timetable or double-period slots. Just let us know your scheduling requirements and we will make it work!
What is the ideal age range for the students?
We recommend a minimum age of 10-12 years old for our standard spray can workshops to ensure they can handle the pressure of the nozzles safely. However, for younger primary school students, we offer adapted workshops using paint markers or water-based alternatives. No matter the age group, we tailor the complexity of the lesson to match the students' developmental stage.
How does the payment process work for schools?
Forget the stress of upfront deposits! With Graffitifun, you only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. We believe in the quality of our service and want schools to feel 100% confident in booking us. You'll receive an invoice once the students have finished their artwork, making the administrative process simple and risk-free for your department.
Do students need any prior art experience?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. We start with the very basics—how to hold a can, how to control the spray, and how to create simple lines. Our artists are experts at encouraging students who think they 'can't draw,' helping them discover hidden talents. By the end of the session, every student will have created something they can be proud of.
