Is the spray paint safe for primary school children?

Safety is our absolute number one priority. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for small hands to control and provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective ponchos. Our professional artists are also experts at managing groups of children, ensuring everyone follows safety protocols while having the best time possible. We make sure the environment is well-ventilated and supervised at all times.

Do the pupils need any prior drawing or art skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. We start with the very basics, like how to hold the can and create simple dots and lines. Our artists provide step-by-step guidance so that every child, regardless of their artistic 'talent', walks away feeling like a pro. It’s all about building confidence and having a go at something new and exciting!

What should the students wear on the day?

While we provide protective ponchos and gloves, we always recommend that students wear 'play clothes' or old trainers that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. High-energy creativity can sometimes get a little messy! Having students bring an old oversized shirt to wear over their school uniform is a great way to ensure everyone stays clean while letting their creativity run wild.

Where in Manizales does the workshop take place?

We are incredibly flexible! We can host the workshop directly on your school grounds in Manizales—either against a suitable wall, on large wooden boards, or even on individual canvases in a well-ventilated hall. If you'd prefer to get the kids out of the classroom, we can also arrange for a session at a local inspirational street art spot. We bring all the gear to you!

How long does a typical school workshop last?

A standard primary school session usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, practice time, and the creation of the final masterpiece. We can adjust the timing to fit into your school’s morning or afternoon timetable, ensuring a seamless integration with your daily schedule without any stress for the teachers.

How much does it cost and what is included?

Our pricing is based on the number of students and the specific materials required. In Manizales, prices typically range from $100,000 to $250,000 COP per student. This is all-inclusive of paint, protection, and expert tuition. Because school groups vary so much in size, we always recommend requesting a custom quote so we can give you the best possible price for your specific year group.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your students in the city of open doors? It's about combining local culture with modern creativity! Here’s why it’s a total game-changer for your school: 🔥

Boosts confidence: Seeing a giant mural come to life gives kids a massive sense of achievement.
Encourages teamwork: Large-scale graffiti requires students to communicate and collaborate on various sections.
Safe & Professional: We use safe equipment and our artists are experts at working with younger age groups.
Stress-free for teachers: We bring all the materials, set up, and clean up. You just enjoy the show!
Unique learning: It’s a fantastic way to discuss colour theory, geometry, and urban history in a hands-on way.
Reliability: With backup artists on hand, we guarantee your workshop goes ahead no matter what!

Step by step

The intro: Our artist arrives at your Manizales school and introduces the vibrant history of street art.
Safety first: Kids get kitted out in masks, gloves, and ponchos while learning the 'golden rules' of using spray cans.
No-paint practice: We start with 'ghost painting' to get the arm movements right before the caps even click.
Mastering the lines: Students learn basic techniques like flares, dots, and how to create a clean outline.
The big design: The class works together or individually to sketch out their creative vision on the canvas or wall.
Fill-in fun: This is where the colour happens! Pupils learn how to blend shades and fill in large areas evenly.
The finishing touches: We add highlights and second outlines to make the artwork really 'pop' off the surface.
The grand reveal: We step back to admire the collective masterpiece and take some epic group photos!
Tidy up: Our team handles the cleanup, leaving your school exactly as we found it, just with more art.

Local culture

Manizales isn't just the city of open doors; it’s a city of open minds and incredible vistas! Nestled in the heart of the coffee region, the local street art scene reflects the lush green landscapes and the vibrant energy of the Feria de Manizales. From the steep slopes of Chipre to the bustling streets of downtown, murals here tell stories of heritage and nature. 🌿

Fun Fact: Did you know that Manizales is often called the 'San Francisco of Colombia' because of its steep streets? It provides a unique backdrop where urban art often has to wrap around incredible architectural gradients! Taking your students out of the traditional classroom and into this world of vertical creativity is an experience they’ll never forget. ✨
