Graft

About

*** Graft has re-opened, view their COVID-19 policy here. ***

If you’re looking for a fun, creative and truly Bristol experience, how about a graffiti workshop? Their workshops and tours are led by professional graffiti artists and give you a unique insight into the history of Bristol graffiti, as well as the chance to learn or develop skills with spraycans and paint markers.

They cater for groups of all shapes and sizes, from one-to-one and couple masterclasses to hen and stag parties, teambuilding groups and families. They also offer workshops for schools and children’s parties, as well as taking mural commissions.

Their tours cover the key graffiti spots of central Bristol, taking in artists from Banksy to Inkie and Nick Walker, as well as some of the lesser-known artists and folklore of Bristol’s world-famous graffiti heritage.

Many of their workshops take place at The Island, a former police station where you can learn graffiti techniques in the cells and paint on the walls of the prisoners’ exercise yard! They also support other Bristol venues and can travel to your home, business or accommodation by arrangement.

Check out their website, Facebook and Instagram, or get in touch for more details.

“Just to let you know we all had a fantastic time on Saturday. The guys got really into it; the folklore, the community, the art… It was a very memorable experience, and the photos are still rolling in!” Simon, stag party

"Rob is a brilliant graffiti artist and a fantastic teacher. The workshop was perfect - a tour of Bristol's secret history, through graffiti, followed by a chance to learn some techniques and to get hands on and have a go with the spray cans. A really inspiring day!" Professor Alice Roberts.

“We’d like to thank you for the great workshop and tour that we had in Bristol. The students really loved it! 

They told us that they learned a lot about it and had a very good time during the workshop. Next time, when we visit Bristol, we will book a workshop again.” Mirjam, Merewade College, Netherlands.
