UTRECHT, UTRECHT, NETHERLANDS, February 4, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Graffitifun, the Netherlands premier graffiti company, is transforming the way students, children, and professionals experience art through its unique educational graffiti workshops. Founded in 2005 in Amsterdam by Michel Steers, a trained construction engineer and passionate graffiti artist, Graffitifun combines creativity, skill, and structured learning to deliver innovative programs for schools, companies, and youth organizations across Europe.

From passion to profession
Michel Steers began his graffiti journey in 2004, experimenting with spray cans and exploring the expressive possibilities of street art in the heart of Amsterdam. Recognizing the potential to combine creativity with education and community engagement, he launched Graffitifun in 2005. What started as a local hobby project has since grown into a national and international enterprise, providing professional graffiti workshops and creative services in multiple countries.

Graffitifun operates with a mission to promote artistic expression, teamwork, and self-confidence through graffiti, all while ensuring a safe, structured, and educational environment. Over the years, the company has worked with over 42 professional in-house graffiti artists, bringing their expertise to workshops, live projects, and corporate or school initiatives.

Graffiti workshops designed for education
The core of Graffitifun’s offerings is its educational graffiti workshops, designed to engage participants of all ages in creative learning. These workshops combine the thrill and freedom of street art with structured guidance, emphasizing artistic techniques, teamwork, and personal expression.

For schools, workshops are tailored to meet curriculum goals, fostering skills such as problem-solving, collaboration, creativity, and visual literacy. Students are introduced to graffiti culture and techniques in a supervised setting, learning the history of street art while developing their own artistic voices. Workshops can range from short in-class sessions to multi-day projects, depending on the objectives and age groups involved.

Corporate and organizational workshops are designed to promote team building, communication, and innovation. By collaborating on murals or group projects, employees develop stronger interpersonal skills while engaging in an inspiring and hands-on activity that encourages out-of-the-box thinking.

Expertise backed by professional experience
Graffitifun stands out not only for its artistic credibility but also for its professional and structured approach. Michel Steers’ unique background as a construction engineer brings a level of precision, planning, and professionalism to every project. This combination of technical expertise and artistic passion ensures that workshops are not only creative but also organized, safe, and high-quality.

“Our workshops are more than just fun with spray cans. They’re a way to teach skills, foster confidence, and connect people through creativity. Graffiti is a powerful medium for expression, and when guided properly, it can be a tool for learning and personal growth.”
- says, Michel Steers CEO Graffitifun Europe Holding B.V.

National and international reach
Graffitifun began in Amsterdam but has expanded nationally and internationally, offering workshops and live art events across multiple European countries. The company’s portfolio includes partnerships with schools, municipalities, corporations, and youth organizations, all focused on leveraging graffiti as an educational and social tool.

The company’s team of more than 42 in-house graffiti artists ensures that every project is handled by experienced professionals who are trained in both artistic techniques and educational facilitation. Graffitifun is also an officially recognized training company, providing mentorship and guidance to aspiring artists, ensuring the next generation of graffiti talent is nurtured in a safe and professional environment.

Educational impact
Graffitifun’s graffiti workshops aim to make a lasting impact on participants. Students and children gain confidence, learn collaborative skills, and experience a sense of accomplishment when they see their ideas come to life on walls or canvases.
