How long does a typical primary school workshop last?

Most primary school workshops in Atlanta last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This timeframe is perfect for keeping young students engaged without them losing focus. We balance the session with a brief introduction to street art history, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time so every child can complete their contribution to the masterpiece.

Is the spray paint safe for elementary school children?

Safety is our absolute priority. We use high-quality, low-odor spray cans that are safer for younger users. Additionally, we provide all necessary protective gear, including gloves and masks. Our professional artists are experienced in supervising children and ensure that the spray paint is used responsibly and only in designated areas, keeping the school environment clean.

What kind of space do we need at our Atlanta school?

Ideally, we need an outdoor space with good ventilation, such as a school playground, parking lot, or a covered outdoor gym area. We use large plastic sheets to protect the ground and surrounding walls. If outdoor space isn't available, we can discuss indoor options using water-based paint markers or specific low-pressure cans, though outdoor sessions are usually the most fun!

Do the students need prior drawing or painting skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels. Our artists guide the students through basic shapes and lettering, making it easy for even those who don't think they are 'artistic' to create something beautiful. The goal is to build confidence and show that everyone can contribute to a large-scale piece of community art.

What is the maximum group size for a school event?

We can accommodate groups of various sizes, from a single class of 20 to an entire grade level of 100+ students. For larger groups, we often rotate classes through the workshop area or bring in additional professional artists to ensure every student gets individual attention and enough 'can-time' to really learn the techniques.

How far in advance should we book our workshop?

We are very flexible! While we recommend booking at least 3-4 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date—especially during the busy spring and fall seasons in Atlanta—we have a large team and can often accommodate last-minute requests. Plus, we have backup artists ready to go, so your event will never be cancelled.

Local culture

Atlanta is a city that breathes street art. From the iconic Krog Street Tunnel to the towering murals in the Old Fourth Ward, our city's visual identity is defined by the spray can. By bringing a graffiti workshop to your primary school, you’re connecting students with a vital part of Atlanta’s contemporary culture. We celebrate the local spirit of innovation and diversity that makes the A-T-L unique. Our artists are active members of the local scene and love sharing the "Do It Yourself" ethos of street art with the next generation of Atlanta creatives. It’s a chance for kids to see that art isn't just something found in a museum—it's alive on the streets they walk every day.

Pricing

Our workshop pricing is flexible to fit your school's budget and specific needs. Generally, prices range from $35 to $75 per student.

This range depends on the number of participants, the duration of the session, and whether we are painting on temporary wooden panels or a permanent school wall. We highlight professional quality and safety without the need for upfront payments—you only pay after the workshop is successfully completed!
