Graffiti-Workshops

Introduction

The Graffiti workshops are always popular with youth groups. Their connection with urban culture makes graffiti a good choice and it often works well alongside the DJ-ing, MC-ing or Break-dance workshops.

A usual introduction to graffiti art is a two hour long workshop where the history and background of graffiti is talked about, basic skills are taught like controling drips and learning about different types of nozzles ect. everyone gets a go and where possible everyone gets their own piece of graffiti to take home.

For larger groups, a longer workshop may be more suitable. longer workshops involve getting the participants to create a piece from start to finish often as a group effort, an ideal team-building excersise.

Anything (within reason!) can be painted to your requirements and does not have to be on a wall. eg, shutters, vehicles ect. My work has been used to furnish exhibition displays in the Sheffield Futures head office, Star House and various publications within the youth sector.

I carry a Full Criminal Records Beaurea check and have over 10 years graffiti experience, I am also available to work with homeless groups and offenders. I can work on my own in the form of a graffiti display, this works particually well with 1 day events such as arts fairs and exhibition days. I usually work by hourly rates, however for longer sessions a fixed price within your budget can be aggreed!
