Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti workshop safe for students?
Absolutely! At Graffitifun, safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and overalls to all students. Our professional artists are trained to supervise school groups, ensuring everyone follows safety protocols while using the spray cans. We also recommend outdoor locations or well-ventilated spaces to ensure a comfortable environment for everyone involved in the Tartu workshop.
Do the students need any prior art skills?
No prior experience is needed at all! Our workshops are designed for beginners. Our expert artists start with the very basics, showing students how to hold the can and manage pressure. By the end of the session, even students who claim they 'can’t draw' are amazed by the professional-looking mural they've helped create. We focus on boosting confidence through creativity and teamwork.
What is the maximum group size for a school session?
We can accommodate almost any group size! For schools in Tartu, we often work with single classes of 20-30 students, but we can also manage larger year groups by bringing in multiple artists and setting up different stations. We maintain a healthy artist-to-student ratio to ensure everyone gets personal guidance and stays engaged throughout the entire creative process.
Are all materials included in the price?
Everything is included! We provide the spray paint, caps, safety gear (masks, gloves, suits), and the surfaces to paint on (either large shared boards or individual canvases). You don't need to worry about hidden costs or extra supplies—just make sure the students wear old clothes and shoes, as paint can sometimes find its way onto trousers!
Can you host the workshop at our school?
Yes, we are very flexible! We can bring the workshop directly to your school grounds if you have a suitable outdoor wall or space. Alternatively, we can help arrange a session at one of Tartu's legal graffiti spots or a creative indoor hall. Our mobile team brings everything required to your chosen location, making logistics a breeze for teachers.
How does the payment process work for schools?
We offer great flexibility for schools! While we have a standard pricing structure based on the number of students, we don't require upfront payments at the time of booking. You can pay after the workshop is completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience before the final invoice is settled. Peace of mind is part of the Graffitifun experience!
How long does a typical school workshop last?
A standard school workshop usually lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This allows enough time for a safety briefing, technique practice, and the creation of a final masterpiece. However, we can easily adapt the duration to fit into your school’s specific timetable or double-period slots. Just let us know your schedule, and we will make it work perfectly!
