Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?
Absolutely! At Graffitifun, safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. Our professional instructors in Maribor are trained to supervise students closely, ensuring everyone uses the spray cans correctly. We also use low-odour, professional-grade paints and typically hold sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated workshops space to ensure a safe, healthy environment for all participants.
What is the minimum age for participants?
Our school workshops in Maribor are generally aimed at students aged 10 and up, as handling spray cans requiring certain motor skills and strength. However, we can adapt our programme for slightly younger children using water-based markers or smaller cans. Whether it's a primary school outing or a secondary school art project, we tailor our teaching style and technical complexity to match the age and ability of your specific group.
Where do the workshops take place in Maribor?
We are incredibly flexible! We can host the workshop at various creative spots around Maribor, or if your school has a suitable outdoor space (like a car park or playground) and permission, we can bring the entire mobile studio to you. If the weather isn't playing ball, we have indoor solutions using large canvases or special foil walls, ensuring the creative flow never has to stop.
What materials do we need to provide?
You don't need to bring a thing! Graffitifun provides all the necessary professional equipment. This includes a wide range of premium spray paint colours, caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective clothing to keep school uniforms clean, and the 'canvas' itself—whether that's a communal wall, individual boards, or large-scale plastic sheeting. Just tell the students to wear comfortable shoes they don't mind getting a bit of dust on!
How long does a typical school session last?
A standard educational workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows us to cover the fascinating history of street art, practice basic techniques, and complete a final masterpiece. We can also offer extended full-day programmes for Maribor schools looking for a more intensive 'Arts Week' experience or shorter 'taster' sessions for larger groups moving in rotations.
Can we choose a specific theme for our mural?
Definitely! We love it when schools have a specific theme, such as environmental awareness, local Maribor history, or school values like 'inclusion' and 'respect'. Our artists can help students brainstorm and sketch designs that reflect these themes before they start painting. It’s a fantastic way to combine physical art skills with social education or other curriculum subjects like history and literature.
