Do the children need any prior artistic experience?

Not at all! Our after-school sessions in Nanjing are designed for everyone from absolute beginners to budding artists. Our pro instructors break everything down into simple steps, starting with basic lines and shapes. We focus on the joy of creation rather than technical perfection, ensuring every student walks away with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of. It's all about finding your unique style!

Is it safe for children to use spray paint?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier for younger hands to control, and all workshops take place in well-ventilated areas or outdoors. Our artists are also trained in site safety and group management to ensure a secure, fun environment for all participants.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

Standard after-school workshops typically run for 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives the group enough time to learn the history of graffiti, practice their techniques on plastic film or practice walls, and then complete their final masterpiece. We can also adjust the timing to fit specifically with your school's extracurricular schedule or specific afternoon requirements in Nanjing.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide absolutely everything! This includes premium spray paint in a huge range of colours, protective gear (overalls, gloves, masks), and the 'canvas' itself—whether that's a communal wall, individual boards, or canvases to take home. You just need to make sure the kids are wearing old clothes and shoes, just in case a little bit of 'extra' art finds its way onto them!

Where do the workshops take place in Nanjing?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop at your school or youth centre if there is a suitable outdoor space. Alternatively, we can help arrange a session at one of our partner creative spots or legal graffiti walls around Nanjing. If you're looking for a specific vibe, just let us know and we'll help find the perfect 'street' backdrop for your group.

Can this be a collaborative team project?

Graffiti is a fantastic team-building tool. Many of our Nanjing after-school sessions involve a 'mural' element where students have to collaborate on a single, large-scale design. This requires communication, planning, and shared execution. It’s a brilliant way for kids to learn how to work together while expressing themselves individually, resulting in a giant piece of art that belongs to the whole group.

Mastering the Can: Our pro artists demonstrate essential techniques like 'fading', 'outlining', and 'caps', letting kids practice on test surfaces.
Creating the Background: Students start their real piece by layering vibrant background colours and textures to make their art pop.
Filling & Detail: This is where the magic happens! We guide them through filling in their letters and adding those sharp, stylised details.
The Final Outline: The 'Pro' touch—adding a crisp outline to make the design stand out from the background.
The Big Reveal & Photos: We wrap up by admiring everyone's work, taking some epic group photos, and tidying up the creative space.

Local culture

Nanjing is a city where ancient history meets a burgeoning modern pulse. While it’s famous for its Ming Dynasty walls, there is a growing appreciation for the contemporary "walls" of the street art scene. Our workshops embrace this local energy, teaching students how to respect urban spaces while finding their own voice. We often draw inspiration from the city's unique blend of traditional calligraphy and edgy, modern graphics found in creative hubs like the 1865 Creative Park. 🐉

Fun Fact: Did you know that the Nanjing City Wall is one of the longest in the world? While we definitely don't paint on the heritage stones, that sense of scale and history inspires our students to think big when creating their own modern murals! 🔥
