"The collaboration with Nowhereland on the decoration of Roskilde Municipality's electrical enclosures is a project that contains a lot on many levels. The children meet professional artists and is involved in the creation of the artwork. It gives them ownership of the urban space and a pride that they have helped to decorate the city."
- Line Røijen, Children's Culture House Coordinator in Roskilde

Workshops

Street Art for Children takes place as a workshop in two parts. The workshop is based on a visual framework developed by us in advance.

Works of art are created
Introduction to street art
Teaching and assignments in character design, with characters developed through guided drawing

Setup in the urban space
Together with the children, we decorate the electrical enclosures with their prepared artworks

The project then finishes with an opening reception and a city walking tour to see the artworks. For this event in Roskilde, we made a city map locating all the different electrical enclosures decorated by the children*.

Download a map here and go exploring with your friends and family.

*The decorated electrical enclosures can be found at Dronning Margrethes Vej, Jernbanegade, Krydset ved Klosterengen, Køgevej, Musiconstien, Sankt Ols Stræde and Store Gråbrødrestræde.
