From the First Sketch to Your Own Style

It all starts with the line: letters are constructed, proportions are checked, curves and edges develop rhythm. From the sketch grows step by step a personal graffiti look. This examination of the work in one's own doing shows how closely form sense, color choice, and composition are interrelated. Those who participate here experience art not only as a motif but as a process.

Street Art as Cultural Education

The Art School Gelsenkirchen sees itself as a diverse art learning place and as a recognized youth art school. Here, aesthetic experience is combined with experimentation, research, and invention. This is precisely where the special value of this holiday offering lies: it promotes creativity, self-confidence, and artistic independence. Participants learn how colors work, how shapes create tension, and how an idea evolves into a convincing image.

A Space for Young Visual Language

Graffiti is much more than a quick inscription. It is an art form between urban culture, painting, and typography. In the workshop, children can playfully experience how expressiveness and artistic precision connect. The result is not just an image, but a unique visual handwriting that makes attitude and imagination visible.
