Is the graffiti workshop safe for children and teens?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP3 masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep those school uniforms clean. Our professional artists are trained to supervise groups and ensure everyone uses the spray cans correctly in a well-ventilated outdoor or indoor space. We make sure the environment is as safe as it is fun!

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard after-school workshops in Toronto usually last between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives the students enough time to learn the basic techniques, practice their 'tag' on paper, and then create their final masterpiece on a wall or canvas. If you have a specific schedule to meet, just let us know and we can adjust the timing to fit your school's needs.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We bring everything needed for the ultimate street art experience! This includes a wide variety of premium spray paint colors, caps for different line widths, protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the surfaces to paint on. We can set up mobile wooden walls or provide individual canvases that the kids can take home. You just need to provide the space and the enthusiastic students!

Do the students need any prior drawing or painting experience?

No artistic skills are required at all! Our workshops are designed for all levels, from total beginners to budding young artists. Our instructors walk the group through every step, from holding the can to creating 3D effects. It's all about expressing yourself and having a great time, not about being a perfect artist from day one. That’s the beauty of graffiti!

What is the maximum group size you can handle?

We are very flexible! While we love working with small groups for more personal attention, we can also accommodate large groups by bringing in multiple graffiti coaches. Whether you have a club of 10 students or a whole grade of 50, we have the staff and materials to make it work. Just reach out, and we’ll help you plan the logistics.

What is the recommended age for participants?

For after-school programs, we find that children aged 8 and up get the most out of the experience. At this age, they have the physical strength to press the spray caps and the coordination to follow the techniques. However, we can adapt our workshops for slightly younger kids using water-based paint or markers if needed. Feel free to contact us to discuss your specific age group.

Can the workshop be educational as well as fun?

For sure! While we focus on the art, our workshops naturally touch on the history of street art, the importance of legal spaces, and the difference between vandalism and community art. It’s a great way to talk about urban culture, geometry, and color theory in a way that actually keeps students engaged and excited. It’s education hidden inside an awesome creative session!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your after-school program? Because it’s the ultimate way to engage kids who might feel bored with traditional sports or music clubs. It’s fresh, it’s edgy, and it’s incredibly rewarding. Here’s why we’re a hit in Toronto schools:

Confidence boost: Nothing beats the feeling of standing back and seeing a massive piece of art you created yourself. 🔥
Authentic instructors: Our team consists of active street artists who live and breathe the culture, giving students a real-world perspective. 🎤
Zero stress planning: We handle everything—from the spray cans to the drop cloths. You just bring the students!
Portable fun: We can set up our mobile graffiti walls almost anywhere, transforming a parking lot or playground into a temporary studio. 🏫
All skills welcome: You don't need to be "good at drawing" to create something spectacular with a spray can.
Toronto pride: We connect the workshop to the city's amazing mural history, making it locally relevant. 🏆

Step by step

Intro and safety briefing: We kick things off with a quick chat about street art culture and, most importantly, how to use the equipment safely.
Sketching your tag: Every student starts on paper, brainstorming their 'writer' name and sketching out their unique letter style.
Can control basics: Our pros show the kids how to hold the can, adjust the nozzle, and control the pressure for different effects.
First lines: Time to hit the wall! Students practice making straight lines, circles, and dots to get a feel for the spray paint.
Filling and fading: We teach the secrets of 'filling in' letters and creating those cool color gradients and fades you see on Queen Street West.
Outlining and highlights: To make the art pop, we add sharp outlines and 'shines' that give the graffiti a professional 3D look.
Final touches: Students add background elements like bubbles or stars to complete their masterpiece.
Group photo and clean up: We finish by taking shots of the crew with their work and making sure the area is spotless!

Local culture

Toronto has one of the most respected street art scenes in North America. From the world-famous Graffiti Alley (Rush Lane) near Fashion District to the sprawling murals of the Underpass Park in the West Don Lands, the city is a living gallery. Our workshops soak up this local vibe, teaching students about Toronto's unique "legal wall" culture and the pioneers who helped shape the city's aesthetic.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Graffiti Alley in Toronto is almost a kilometer long? It's so famous that even Rick Mercer used it for his iconic "Rants" on TV!

Pricing

Our workshop prices typically range from C$40 to C$90 per person. The final price depends on the number of participants, the duration of the session, and the materials used (like individual canvases or large communal walls).

We believe in transparency and flexibility, which is why we offer a "pay after the workshop" policy to ensure you're 100% happy with the experience. No hidden fees, just pure creativity!
