Frequently asked questions

How long does a typical university graffiti workshop last?

Most university workshops in Geneva last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives your group enough time to learn the basic strokes, practice their 'tagging' style, and collaborate on a large-scale mural or individual canvases. We can adjust the duration to fit into a specific seminar slot or make it a full-afternoon social event depending on your society's needs.

Do we need any prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Most of our students have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the absolute basics—how to hold the can, pressure control, and safety. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the quality of the art you've created. It’s all about the process and having a blast with your fellow students.

What materials are included in the workshop price?

We provide everything! Your booking includes high-quality spray paint in a huge range of colours, caps (nozzles), protective overalls, gloves, and masks. We also provide the canvases or mobile graffiti walls. You just need to show up in some comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of dust on.

Can the workshop take place on our university campus?

We are flexible. We can host the workshop at various creative spots around Geneva, or if your university campus allows it, we can bring our mobile setup directly to you. We use high-quality plastic sheeting and protective gear to ensure the 'street' stays on the canvas and not on the university floor!

What happens if an artist is unavailable at the last minute?

Yes, we have a large team of artists across Switzerland. If an artist falls ill, we have a backup system in place to ensure your event goes ahead as planned. We know how much planning goes into university socials, so we prioritise reliability and clear communication to make sure your day is stress-free.

Do we need to pay anything upfront to book?

No, one of the best parts about Graffitifun is our 'play now, pay later' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront costs or deposits. You can focus on organising your student group, and payment is only handled after the workshop is completed and everyone is satisfied with their masterpiece.

Is there a maximum number of students who can join?

We can accommodate almost any group size! Whether it's a small executive committee of 10 people or a massive freshers' week event for 100+ students, we scale our team of artists accordingly. For very large groups, we often set up multiple 'stations' so everyone gets a chance to spray without long waiting times.
