How it works
- Introduction and safety briefing: We kick things off with a high-energy intro about street art culture and, most importantly, how to stay safe with the gear.
- Design brainstorming: Students work together or individually to sketch out their concepts, focusing on lettering, 'wildstyle', or specific school themes.
- The first spray: Under the guidance of our pros, students learn how to hold the can, control pressure, and create different line widths using various 'caps'.
- Filling in the blanks: Once the outlines are ready, the real fun begins! Everyone picks their favourite colours to fill in their designs with vibrant gradients.
- Adding shadows and highlights: Our artists teach the tricks of the trade, showing students how to make their art 'pop' with 3D effects and highlights.
- The final outline: We go back over the edges to make the piece look sharp, professional, and gallery-ready.
- Group photo and cleanup: We celebrate the hard work with some epic photos of the students and their masterpieces before we handle all the messy cleanup.

Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?
Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority at Graffitifun. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for every student. Our professional artists are trained to manage groups safely, and we use low-odour, high-quality spray paint wherever possible. We ensure the workspace is well-ventilated and that all students follow strict safety guidelines throughout the session, making it a worry-free experience for teachers and parents alike.
Where do the workshops take place in Popondetta?
We are totally flexible! We can bring the workshop directly to your school grounds in Popondetta, using mobile wooden walls or plastic sheeting to protect your property. Alternatively, if you want an excursion, we can often arrange a session at a local legal street art spot. Most schools prefer the convenience of having us come to them, as it saves on transport logistics and keeps the kids in a familiar environment.
How long does a typical school session last?
Our school workshops typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. We find this is the perfect 'sweet spot' to keep students engaged without them losing focus. We start with a brief history and safety talk, move into technique practice, and spend the final hour or so on the main masterpiece. We can also adapt the schedule to fit into your specific school timetable or double-period slots if needed.
What materials do we need to provide?
Don't worry, we've got you covered! We provide everything: premium spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gear, caps, and the 'canvas' (whether that's individual boards or a large communal wall). Students just need to show up in old clothes and shoes they don't mind getting a bit of paint on—even with the suits, graffiti can be a messy business! We handle all the setup and the intensive cleanup afterwards.
Can the workshop be linked to our current curriculum?
Graffiti is a brilliant way to explore various subjects! We can tailor the workshop theme to match what you are teaching in class. Whether it is environmental awareness, local Oro Province history, typography in English, or geometric shapes in Maths, our artists can incorporate these themes into the art. It is a fantastic way to make curriculum topics feel 'cool' and tangible for students who learn better through hands-on activities.
What age groups are these workshops suitable for?
We believe art is for everyone! Our workshops are generally designed for students aged 10 and up, as they need the hand strength to operate the spray cans. However, we can adapt sessions for younger primary school children using alternative techniques like paint markers or stencils. For secondary students and teens, the workshops are a massive hit because they offer a sense of freedom and modern expression they don't always get in traditional art classes.
What happens if we need to cancel or change our booking?
We offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Because we have a large team of professional artists across our network, we always have backup artists available. This means that even if a trainer falls ill, your workshop in Popondetta won't be cancelled at the last minute. We also don't require upfront payments; you only pay after the workshop is completed, ensuring you are completely happy with the creative results and the students' experience.
