How it works

  1. Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy intro about the history of graffiti and a demo of various street art styles.
  2. Safety briefing: Your safety is key. We suit everyone up in overalls, masks, and gloves and explain the golden rules of the spray can.
  3. Mastering the nozzle: Students practice the basics—lines, dots, and fades—on a practice wall to get a feel for the pressure and flow.
  4. Concept sketching: Grab a marker! You'll sketch out your design ideas on paper or directly onto the canvas before the paint starts flying.
  5. Filling & colouring: Learn how to apply vibrant colours smoothly and how to blend shades for that professional 'street' look.
  6. Outlining & detailing: This is where the magic happens. We teach you how to add sharp outlines and highlights to make your work pop.
  7. The tag: Every artist needs a signature. We'll show you how to create your own unique tag to finish off your masterpiece.
  8. Photo session: We wrap up with a group gallery walk and plenty of photos for your university's social media pages.

Frequently asked questions

Do we need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Most university students in Accra have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you safety, can control, and nozzle techniques. By the time you start on your masterpiece, you'll feel like a pro. We provide a supportive environment where experimentation is encouraged, ensuring everyone leaves the workshop with a piece of art they are proud of and a new skill set.

What should we wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls, shoe covers, and gloves, graffiti is a messy business! It’s all part of the fun. Think of it as your 'artist's uniform' for the day. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery or your favourite designer gear just to be safe while you're unleashing your inner Banksy.

Is it safe to use spray cans?

Student safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective gear for every participant. Our spray paints are selected for their quality, and we always conduct workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces. Our instructors are trained in safety protocols and will be on hand throughout the session to ensure a safe, fun, and creative environment for all university students.

How long does a typical workshop last?

A typical university workshop in Accra lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows for a comprehensive introduction, technique practice, and the creation of a full-scale mural or individual canvases. We can also adapt the duration to fit into your university's 'Spirit Week' or specific event schedule. Whether you want a quick 'try-it' session or a deep-dive masterclass, we can make it happen.

Where in Accra do the workshops take place?

We are extremely flexible! We can bring the workshop to your campus (provided there is a suitable outdoor space or well-ventilated area) or host you at one of our curated street art locations across Accra. Our mobile setup includes everything from boards and foils to paints and protection, making it easy to turn any university courtyard into a temporary art studio. Just let us know your preference during the booking.

Do we have to pay in advance?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'no-risk' booking policy. You don't need to pay anything upfront. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. This takes the stress out of university budget approvals and committee planning. We believe in the quality of our service and want you to book with total confidence.

How many students can join at once?

We can accommodate almost any group size, from small student societies of 10 people to large-scale campus events with over 100 participants. For larger groups, we bring in additional professional artists to ensure everyone gets individual attention and guidance. We tailor the amount of materials and the number of instructors to match your specific group size, ensuring a high-quality experience for every single student involved.
