Frequently asked questions

Do we need any previous art experience to participate?

No prior artistic experience is needed! Our Porto workshops are designed for everyone, from complete beginners to those who are more creatively inclined. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, from basic can control to advanced layering techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It's all about having fun and expressing your personality through street art!

What materials are included in the university workshop?

We provide everything you need for a complete graffiti experience. This includes a wide range of premium spray paint colours, caps, protective gloves, and masks. Depending on the booked package, we also provide canvases or large boards to paint on. We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little paint on, just in case! We handle the setup and the cleanup.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard university workshop in Porto typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives your group plenty of time to learn the techniques, practice your spray skills, and complete a final collaborative or individual piece. If you have specific timing requirements or want a more intensive full-day masterclass for your student society, we can easily customise the duration to fit your schedule.

Is the workshop safe and are there any health precautions?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks. All our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas or outdoors. Our professional instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring that everyone knows how to handle the equipment properly. We maintain a fun and secure environment for all students throughout the entire workshop.

Can the workshop be held directly on our university campus?

Absolutely! We love bringing the energy to your campus or a specific location of your choice in Porto. Whether it's a university courtyard, a sports hall, or a nearby parking area, we can set up our mobile street art studio almost anywhere. If you don't have a venue, don't worry—we have access to several awesome legal graffiti spots and artistic venues across the city to host your group.

How does payment work for large student groups?

Flexibility is key for student groups! One of the best things about Graffitifun is that we don't require any upfront payment. You can book your session and confirm the details, then pay after the workshop is completed. This makes it much easier for university societies or student unions to manage their budgets and finalize attendee numbers without any financial stress before the event.

What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor workshop?

Porto is a city of hills and vibrant colours, and while we prefer sunshine, we always have a plan B. If the weather doesn't cooperate for an outdoor session, we can move the workshop to a covered or indoor location. Thanks to our backup artist system, we also ensure that your event goes ahead even if an instructor is unwell. Your creative experience is guaranteed regardless of the weather!
