In this workshop, you’ll dive into the world of Slap Ups. 
Participants will explore a series of hands-on activities—from image making and manipulation to creating their own Slap Ups and posting them on our pop-up Graf wall. Slap Ups (also known as Sticker Art) have long been a vital part of street art culture, offering a space for cross-pollination between mediums and creative movements. Using techniques like collage and digital alteration, Slap Ups empower artists to craft striking, subversive visuals that push back against the dominance of mass media. It’s also a culture of exchange—artists frequently trade stickers to expand their reach, allowing their work to travel across cities, countries, and continents, often landing in places they’ve never been.

In this hands-on experience, kids will be guided through the completion of a simple mural work with an experienced artist. With the outlines of the mural ready to go, you’ll splash on colour to bring this mural to life – while gaining knowledge of mural art techniques, colour theory, and other skills that they can use and develop in many branches of life. All materials supplied.

*Please note that this workshop is only open to children under the age of 18, and all participants have to be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
