Is the graffiti workshop safe for children and teenagers?

Absolutely! Our after-school graffiti workshops in Jimma are designed with safety as the number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, and we use professional-grade spray paint in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our experienced artists supervise every moment, ensuring that students handle the materials correctly while focusing on having a blast and being creative in a secure environment.

Do students need any previous drawing or painting skills?

No prior art experience is needed at all! Our workshops are perfect for beginners who have never touched a spray can before. We start with the absolute basics, teaching students how to hold the can and control the pressure. Our friendly artists guide them through every step, from basic lines to complex fills, ensuring everyone walks away feeling like a true street artist.

What materials are included in the workshop package?

We provide everything needed for a complete street art experience! This includes a wide variety of professional spray paint colors, protective clothing (overalls/aprons, gloves, and masks), and the 'canvas'—whether that is a dedicated wall or individual boards. Students just need to bring their energy and wear clothes they don't mind getting a little dusty while exploring the streets of Jimma.

How long does a typical after-school session last?

A typical after-school session in Jimma lasts between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This timeframe is perfect for keeping energy levels high while providing enough time for a full creative cycle: from brainstorming and sketching to final spray painting and taking photos. We can also adjust the timing to fit specific school schedules or transport arrangements.

Where in Jimma do the workshops take place?

We are very flexible! We can bring the workshop directly to your school grounds if there is a suitable outdoor space, or we can host the group at one of our inspiring local street art spots in Jimma. We handle all the logistics and setup, making it easy for teachers and parents to organize a memorable afternoon for the kids.

What is the recommended age for participants?

We generally recommend our after-school workshops for students aged 8 and up. This age group usually has the physical coordination to handle the spray cans and the focus to follow the artistic techniques. However, we can adapt our teaching methods for slightly younger children if requested, ensuring the activity remains accessible, fun, and safe for everyone involved.
