Is the graffiti workshop safe for primary school children?

Safety is our number one priority for primary school students in Benin City. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. Additionally, we use professional-grade low-pressure spray cans that are easier for small hands to control. Our artists are experienced in managing groups of children and ensuring the environment is well-ventilated and strictly supervised throughout the creative session.

What is the minimum age for participants?

We typically recommend our workshops for children aged 6 and above. At this stage, they have the motor skills needed to handle the spray cans safely. We adjust our teaching methods based on the specific age group, focusing more on simple shapes and collaborative patterns for younger kids, while allowing older primary students to experiment with more complex lettering and shading techniques.

How long does a typical school session last?

The workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This is the perfect duration to keep young minds engaged without them losing focus. We start with a brief history of street art and safety instructions, followed by a practice session on cardboard or practice walls, and then we move on to the main collaborative masterpiece. If you have a specific schedule, we can adapt the timing.

What kind of space do we need to provide at the school?

Ideally, we need an outdoor space or a very well-ventilated indoor hall with high ceilings. In Benin City, we often work on school playgrounds or sports fields. We bring protective tarps to cover the ground and surrounding walls, ensuring the school premises stay clean. If your school doesn't have a suitable spot, we can help find a local legal graffiti wall to host the event.

Do we need to pay anything upfront to book?

Not at all! You don't need to pay a single Naira before the workshop happens. We believe in our quality and want you to be 100% satisfied. You only pay after the workshop is completed and the children are happy with their work. This makes the booking process completely stress-free for school administrators and PTA members.

Can the children keep the artwork they create?

Yes, we do! If the school wants to keep the artwork, we can provide large wooden panels or canvases for the children to paint on. Once the paint is dry, these can be mounted in the hallways, library, or canteen as a permanent memory of their creative day. Alternatively, we can work directly on a designated school wall if you want a permanent mural.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your Benin City pupils?

Traditional art classes are great, but nothing beats the thrill of a spray can. Here is why schools in Edo State love working with us:

Boosts creative confidence: Graffiti is a forgiving medium that allows children who might struggle with fine pencils to shine on a larger scale.
Promotes teamwork: Creating a large mural requires students to communicate, share space, and work toward a common goal.
Safe and professional: We use kid-friendly equipment and have a 100% safety record with school groups.
Risk-free booking: With no upfront payment and backup artists ready, your school event is guaranteed to happen without stress.
Interactive learning: It’s a physical, engaging way to learn about color theory, composition, and urban history.
Cultural connection: We celebrate Benin City's rich artistic history by encouraging kids to find their own modern 'street' voice.

Step by step

Introduction and safety talk: Our pro artists start by introducing the kids to the world of graffiti and explaining the safety rules and 'do’s and don’ts'.
Design brainstorming: We help the pupils sketch out a theme, such as 'Unity' or 'Future Leaders', to give their project a clear direction.
Can control practice: Before hitting the main wall, children practice basic lines and dots on cardboard to get a feel for the spray pressure.
Outline phase: The artist helps the kids lay down the main shapes and letters of the collective mural.
Coloring and filling: This is the fun part! The students work together to fill in the designs with a vibrant palette of colors.
Adding the details: We teach the children how to add highlights, lowlights, and outlines to make their artwork 'pop'.
Final touches: Our artist goes over the mural one last time with the kids to sharpen edges and ensure a professional-looking finish.
The big reveal: We take group photos of the class with their completed masterpiece to celebrate their hard work.

Good to know
