Is the paint safe for primary school children?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odour, high-quality spray paints specifically chosen for school environments. Every child is provided with a full set of protective gear, including gloves, masks, and aprons. Our instructors are experienced at working with primary-aged children and maintain a controlled, supervised environment at all times to ensure everyone stays safe while having a blast.

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

Absolutely! While we love working outdoors in the beautiful Goma air, we are fully prepared for the rainy season. We can set up temporary gazebos or, if you have a well-ventilated indoor space like a sports hall or large warehouse area, we can facilitate the workshop there using special floor coverings to keep your school grounds spotless.

What is the ideal group size for a school workshop in Goma?

We recommend a minimum of 10 students to get a great atmosphere going, but we can accommodate very large year groups of 100+ by rotating sessions or bringing in multiple artists. For very small groups, just let us know, and we can tailor the session to be more of an intensive masterclass. We are all about flexibility!

How do you ensure every student gets a turn to spray?

The workshop is designed to be fully inclusive. From the initial sketching phase to the final spray, every child is encouraged to contribute. Our artists are trained to help children with different skill levels or physical requirements, ensuring that every student feels the pride of seeing their work on the final mural. No child is left behind!

Do we need to provide any materials?

We bring everything! This includes all professional-grade spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective masks, gloves, aprons, and the wooden panels or canvases we paint on. We also provide sketching materials for the design phase. All the school needs to provide is a designated outdoor space and enthusiastic students ready to learn a new skill.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard primary school workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for an introduction to graffiti history, safety briefings, design practice, and the final painting session. However, we can adapt the schedule to fit into your school’s specific timetable or broaden it into a full-day creative event.

Can the children take their artwork home?

Yes! While many schools love the 'street art' aesthetic of painting on panels or walls, we also offer 'workshop on canvas' options. This means each student can paint their own individual canvas to take home and show their family, or we can create several medium-sized canvases that can be hung in the school classrooms or hallways.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your primary school in Goma? It’s more than just fun (though it’s a lot of fun!)—it’s a powerful educational tool that transforms the way kids think about art.

Boosts Confidence: Seeing a giant mural they helped create gives children a massive sense of achievement. 💪
Encourages Teamwork: Large-scale graffiti requires coordination, helping students learn to work together towards a shared goal.
Safe Self-Expression: We provide a controlled environment where kids can experiment with bold colours and big ideas.
Physical Coordination: Controlling a spray can helps develop fine motor skills in a way that’s exciting and fresh. 🎤
Community Pride: A mural on school grounds creates a lasting sense of belonging and ownership for the students.
Expert Mentors: Our artists aren't just pros—they're great with kids and love sharing their passion for the craft.

Step by step

Initial Consultation: We chat with your school to understand your goals, whether it's a team-building day, a mural project, or a creative reward.
Design Brainstorming: Students start by sketching their ideas on paper, learning about "tags," "throws," and "pieces" while planning their unique contribution.
Safety Briefing: Our professional artists demonstrate how to use the equipment safely, including proper mask fitting and spray techniques.
Practice Strokes: Before hitting the main wall, kids get to practice basic lines and dots on a practice board to build their confidence.
Outline Creation: The lead artist helps lay down the "bones" of the mural, ensuring the proportions are just right for the students' designs.
The Big Fill: This is the best part! Students pick their colours and fill in the mural, learning how to blend shades and create cool effects.
Adding the Details: We show the kids how to add highlights and outlines to make their artwork pop and look professionally finished.
The Grand Reveal: Once the masks come off, we take a moment to admire the collective masterpiece and snap some legendary group photos.
Clean Up & Wrap Up: We pack up all the gear and leave the site tidy, leaving behind nothing but a stunning piece of art and a lot of smiling faces.

Good to know

Local culture

Goma is a city of incredible resilience and vibrant energy, and its street art scene is no different. You can see the creative spirit of the North Kivu region in the colourful murals that decorate community spaces, often telling stories of peace and local history. By bringing a graffiti workshop to your primary school, you’re connecting your students with this modern urban culture that thrives right here in our backyard. 🌍

Fun Fact: Did you know that the volcanic stones found all around Goma are often used by local artists as natural canvases? While we stick to the spray cans, that local DIY spirit is exactly what we want to inspire in the next generation of Goma’s creators!

From the bustling vibes of Virunga to the calmer school grounds near the lake, we love travelling across Goma to share the joy of street art with the youth who will shape the future of DR Congo. 🏆

We believe in transparent pricing that fits the needs of Goma's local schools. Because every workshop is unique—depending on the number of students and the type of project—our prices vary to give you the best value.

Our typical price range is between FC50,000 and FC120,000 per person. This includes all professional materials and expert instruction from our artists. 💰
