How it works

  1. Introduction & Safety: We kick things off with a brief history of the graffiti movement and a vital safety briefing regarding gear and spray techniques.
  2. The Masterclass: Our professional artists demonstrate the 'anatomy' of a tag, showing you how to control pressure, distance, and angle.
  3. Sketching Your Vision: Grab some paper and markers to map out your design. Whether it's a student society logo or a wild-style tag, we help you plan it.
  4. First Lines: It's time to mask up! You'll head to the wall to spray your 'first fill' and get a feel for the paint flow.
  5. Developing Detail: Learn how to add shadows, 3D effects, and the all-important highlights that make a piece 'pop' off the wall.
  6. The Finishing Touches: Our mentors guide you through clean outlines and 'force fields' to give your work that professional street art finish.
  7. The Big Reveal: We step back to admire the collective mural or individual pieces, followed by a high-energy group photo session.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a typical university graffiti workshop last?

Most university workshops in Žilina last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, practice basic spray techniques, and complete a large-scale collaborative project or individual canvases. If you have a specific schedule or a packed Freshers' Week timetable, we can easily adjust the duration to fit your event perfectly without losing any of the creative impact.

Do we need to provide any materials?

We provide everything you need to get started! This includes high-quality spray cans in a huge range of colours, professional-grade masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. We also bring the 'canvas'—whether that's mobile wooden walls or individual boards. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a little dusty!

Is the workshop safe for students?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We use professional-grade protective gear and low-odour, high-quality spray paints. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can. We've hosted hundreds of workshops across Europe with a flawless safety record, ensuring everyone can focus on being creative in a secure and controlled environment.

Do participants need prior artistic experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our artist mentors will guide you through every step, from how to hold the can to advanced shading techniques. You’ll be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive. Whether you're an art student or a tech enthusiast, you'll leave the session with a piece of art you're proud of and a brand new skill.

Where in Žilina can the workshop take place?

We are very flexible! We can set up on your university campus using our mobile graffiti walls, or we can suggest local creative spots in Žilina that are perfect for street art. As long as there is adequate ventilation (outdoor spaces are usually best), we can turn almost any area into a vibrant street art studio for the afternoon. We handle all the setup and cleanup ourselves.

What are the benefits for student well-being and team building?

Street art is the ultimate icebreaker! It encourages students to communicate, share ideas, and work together on a massive scale. It’s a great way to break down social barriers during the start of the semester or to provide a much-needed stress-relief session during exam periods. Plus, it gives students a unique sense of ownership over their campus environment when they see their collective work finished.

How far in advance should we book a university session?

We recommend booking at least 3-4 weeks in advance, especially during busy periods like 'Imatrikulácia' or the start of the autumn semester. However, we have a large team of backup artists, so if you have a last-minute request, give us a shout! We’ll always do our best to squeeze you in and make sure your university event is one to remember.
