How long does a typical school graffiti workshop last?

Most school workshops in Mechelen last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This provides the perfect balance for students to learn the spray painting basics, practice their technique, and complete a final masterpiece without losing focus. We can easily adjust the timing to fit into your specific school timetable or double-period blocks. Let us know your schedule, and we will make it work seamlessly!

Is it safe for students to use spray paint?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls for every student to keep clothes clean and lungs safe. Our professional artists are trained in safety protocols and use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for beginners to control. We also ensure the workspace is well-ventilated, whether we are working outdoors or in a large hall.

Can the workshop take place at our school or a different location?

Absolutely! While we love bringing the workshop to your school grounds in Mechelen, we also have access to creative locations and legal 'Hall of Fame' walls across Belgium. If you’d prefer an excursion, we can arrange a session at a dedicated street art spot where students can experience the true urban atmosphere. Just let us know your preference when booking.

What is the minimum age for participating students?

We generally recommend our workshops for students aged 10 and up (late primary and all secondary levels). At this age, they have the motor skills to handle the spray cans effectively and the maturity to follow safety instructions. For younger groups, we can adapt the session using paint markers or stencils to ensure everyone has a blast while staying safe.

Do students need any prior drawing or painting experience?

Zero! That is the beauty of street art—it is incredibly accessible. Our artists specialize in teaching beginners. We guide the students through every step, from drawing their first 'tag' to creating complex 3D effects. Even the most 'non-artistic' students usually find they have a hidden talent for graffiti once they get a spray can in their hand.

What happens if we need to cancel or change the date? Lighting?

We understand that school budgets and plans can change. That is why we offer a 'no upfront payment' policy—you only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. If you need to reschedule or cancel, just reach out to us as soon as possible. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we almost never have to cancel on you!

What materials are included in the workshop price?

We provide everything needed for a successful creative day! This includes all professional spray paint in a huge variety of colours, caps (nozzles), protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the surfaces to paint on (usually large wooden panels or plastic film). You don't need to shop for any supplies; just bring your students and their enthusiasm!

Lokale Kultur

Mechelen is a city that perfectly blends its rich medieval history with a modern, creative pulse. While the city is famous for its carillon music and the Moonbeaters (Maneblussers) legend, the local street art scene is quietly booming. Projects like the 'Mechelen Muurt' have seen world-class murals pop up throughout the city centre, turning the streets into a living museum. By bringing a graffiti workshop to your school, you're connecting your students to this contemporary Belgian culture.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Mechelen has its own street art route? You can walk through the city and see massive artworks by famous artists like Smates and Gijs Vanhee. It’s the perfect inspiration for your students before they pick up a spray can!

Preise

Our school workshops are competitively priced to fit educational budgets. Prices generally range from €25 to €55 per student, depending on the total number of participants, the duration of the session, and the specific location in Mechelen.

The best part? No upfront payment is required! We believe in our service so much that you only pay after the workshop is done. We also offer special discounts for multi-day bookings or large-scale school events.
