What is the age limit for the after-school workshops?

Our after-school sessions in Bukavu are designed for children and teenagers aged 6 to 18. We split participants into age-appropriate groups to ensure everyone feels comfortable and challenged. While younger kids focus on basic shapes and safety, older teens dive into complex lettering and shading techniques. We adapt our teaching style to match the energy and maturity of every student involved in the workshop.

Is it safe for my child to use spray paint?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls, to keep everyone safe and clean. Our instructors are professional artists trained in group management and safety protocols. We also use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for kids to control, ensuring a fun environment where the only thing that gets messy is the canvas!

Do the students need prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are built for all skill levels, from total beginners who have never held a spray can to budding artists looking to refine their style. We start with the basics of lines and dots, ensuring every student builds confidence before moving on to their main masterpiece. It's all about creative expression, not perfection.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

A standard after-school session lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, sketching, technique practice, and the final creation of the mural. We find this timeframe keeps the energy high and ensures students stay focused and excited throughout the entire creative process without getting too tired.

Where do the workshops take place in Bukavu?

We are incredibly flexible with locations in Bukavu. We can host the workshop directly at your school grounds if there is a suitable outdoor wall or open space. Alternatively, we have access to local creative hubs and legal street art spots. If it rains, we have backup plans involving indoor-safe materials or sheltered areas so the fun never stops.

Can parents come and watch the final result?

Absolutely! We love it when parents or teachers come by to see what the kids have been working on. There is usually a big 'reveal' at the end of the session where students explain their work. It’s a fantastic way to celebrate their new skills and see the vibrant colours of Bukavu brought to life through their eyes.

How do I book and when do I pay?

Booking is easy and stress-free. You don't need to pay anything upfront. Simply contact us to check availability for your preferred date and time. Once we've agreed on the details and group size, your spot is reserved. You only pay after the workshop is completed, ensuring you are 100% satisfied with the experience.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your after-school programme in Bukavu? It’s not just about paint; it’s about personal growth. Here is why our sessions are a hit:

Unlimited creativity: Street art breaks the rules of traditional art, allowing kids to express themselves without boundaries.
Team building: Working on a large-scale mural encourages students to communicate and collaborate.
Confidence boost: Seeing a massive piece of art completed by their own hands gives kids a huge sense of achievement.
Professional guidance: Our artists aren't just teachers; they are active members of the street art community with years of experience.
Stress-free booking: With no upfront costs and a guaranteed backup artist, your event is in safe hands.

Step by step

Introduction and safety: We start with a friendly greeting and a safety briefing, explaining how to use the gear and the spray cans correctly.
Creative brainstorming: Students work together or individually to sketch out their ideas on paper, choosing themes and colour palettes.
Nozzle technique: We teach the kids about different 'caps' and how they change the spray pattern, from thin lines to wide fills.
The first spray: Under the guidance of our pros, students make their first marks on the wall or board to get a feel for the pressure.
Outline and fill: The main artwork begins! Students start painting their designs, learning how to fill large areas evenly.
Adding details: We show them how to add 'shadows', 'highlights', and '3D effects' to make their graffiti pop.
Final outlines: A crisp outline is added to finish the piece, giving it that professional street art look.
The big reveal: We take photos of the group with their masterpiece and celebrate their new skills.

Local culture

Bukavu is a city with a unique rhythm, where the lush hills meet the bustling activity of the Place de l'Indépendance. This energy is exactly what we tap into during our workshops. The local street art scene in the DR Congo is growing rapidly, and we want the youth of Bukavu to be at the forefront of this movement. By bringing graffiti into an after-school setting, we are connecting the next generation with a global art form that celebrates local identity. From the vibrant fabrics of the Kadutu market to the stunning landscapes surrounding the city, there is no shortage of inspiration here. We encourage our students to draw from their surroundings, ensuring that the murals they create are a true reflection of Bukavu's spirit and culture.

Pricing

We believe high-quality art education should be accessible. Our pricing is transparent and flexible based on your specific needs.

Price range: FC50,000 to FC120,000 per person.
What's included: Professional artist guidance, all materials, and the final artwork to keep or display.
Nervous about booking? Don't be! There is no upfront payment required. You only pay after the workshop is finished and you are happy with the results.
