OPEN THURSDAY at Ungbox is an initiative for youths and young adults organized by Spireverket.  

Every Thursday in May, you’re invited to join a one-hour street art workshop led by us!

The event will be held by the practice wall outside Sofienberg Church, established as part of the Sofienberg Project.

Curious about what happens during a workshop?

Here’s a sneak peek at the themes for each session:

07.05. What’s your name?

In street art, it's common to use an alias. You’ll get to work on finding yours and creating a solid "tag" or nickname. We will be using markers and spray paint.

14.05. What’s your message?

Many street artists start because they have something to say. We’ll focus on creating clear messages using a popular method: stencils. We’ll make our own stencils and use some of our existing ones. We will mainly be working with spray paint.

21.05. Make it pop!

To become a skilled "writer", it's important to understand how to use color effectively. We will work with color theory and practice using markers and spray paint.

28.05 Stronger together!

The best "pieces" are often the result of collaboration. It’s very common to be part of a "crew" where artists help each other. Some might be experts at lettering, others at colors or characters. When you put it all together, the result is greater than the sum of its parts. In this workshop, we’ll brainstorm a motif together and create a collaborative mural. We’ll use a mix of bucket paint with rollers/brushes and spray paint.

The workshops are free to attend, and all materials are included. 

NOTE: While we recommend attending all the workshops as they follow a common thread, it is not a requirement.
