How long does a typical school graffiti workshop last?

A standard educational workshop in Pretoria typically lasts between 90 minutes and 2 hours. This provides enough time for the initial safety briefing, sketching out ideas, and the final painting phase. We can also extend the session for larger school groups or full day art programmes if you want to dive deeper into techniques like stencilling or 3D lettering.

Is the workshop safe for students and young children?

We take safety very seriously. Every student is provided with protective gloves, masks, and coveralls to keep their school uniforms clean. We only use professional spray paint that meets safety standards. Our artists also give a full safety briefing before any cans are shaken, ensuring that the environment remains fun and controlled for everyone involved.

Do your workshops encourage illegal graffiti or vandalism?

Absolutely not. We focus on the artistic and legal side of street art. Our workshops teach students that graffiti is a form of contemporary art that requires discipline, planning, and respect for public spaces. We discuss the difference between vandalism and commissioned murals, encouraging students to find legal outlets for their creativity and passion for street art.

Where in Pretoria do the workshops take place?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop at your school grounds in Pretoria using our mobile boards and plastic sheeting to protect the area. If you prefer to get away from the classroom, we can arrange for the session to take place at a local outdoor graffiti wall or a dedicated creative space in the city.

What materials are included in the school package?

We provide everything you need for a successful creative day. This includes all the spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gear, sketching materials, and the surfaces we paint on. You do not need to worry about a thing. Just make sure the students wear old shoes and are ready to get their hands a little bit colourful!

What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor workshop?

Rain does not have to stop the fun! If the weather in Pretoria turns sour, we can move the workshop indoors to a gym hall or large classroom. We use special protective floor coverings and ensures proper ventilation to keep the project going safely. Alternatively, we can reschedule the session to a sunnier day at no extra cost to the school.

Is there a maximum number of students per session?

We can accommodate groups of almost any size. Whether it is a small art club of 10 students or a full grade of 100 pupils, we have the staff and equipment to handle it. For very large groups, we rotate the students through different creative stations to ensure every child gets plenty of time with the spray cans and individual guidance.

Lokale Kultur

Pretoria is a city with a hidden heart of urban creativity. Beyond the stately government buildings and the Purple Rain of Jacaranda trees, there is a thriving street art scene that is just waiting to be explored. We take inspiration from the local murals found in areas like Hatfield and the vibrant energy of the inner city to show students how art can transform a community. Our workshops reflect the diverse culture of the Jacaranda City, celebrating the local spirit through bold colours and South African style. 🎨

Fun fact: Did you know that Pretoria is home to some of the largest legal graffiti walls in Gauteng, where local artists host regular "jams" to showcase their skills? It is the perfect backdrop for students to learn about the importance of legal street art spaces!
