Is the spray paint safe for primary school children?

Every child gets a high-quality face mask, disposable gloves, and a protective apron to keep their school uniforms clean. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for small hands to control, and we always hold our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open halls. Our professional artists are also trained in supervising children, ensuring a safe, structured, and incredibly fun environment from start to finish!

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard primary school workshop in Mount Hagen usually lasts between 90 minutes and 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques like 'flaring' and 'outlining', and plenty of hands-on painting time. We can also adapt the schedule to fit into your school’s morning or afternoon timetable, ensuring every student gets a chance to create their masterpiece without rushing.

What is the ideal group size for a school workshop?

We recommend a maximum of 15 to 20 students per instructor to ensure everyone gets personal guidance and stays safe. For larger primary schools in the Western Highlands, we simply bring more artists! We have a deep bench of backup professionals, so whether you have one class or an entire year group, we can scale the experience to meet your school's specific needs comfortably.

Do the students need any prior drawing or art skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for complete beginners. Our artists break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps that help kids build confidence. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to filling in colours and adding highlights. You’ll be amazed at how quickly the children in Mount Hagen pick up the skills and start feeling like real street artists!

What should the children wear on the day of the workshop?

While we provide protective aprons, we always suggest that students wear 'play clothes' or older school items that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. Spray paint is permanent, and while we take every precaution to cover up, kids will be kids! It’s all part of the creative mess and fun. Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are also a must for safety while moving around the canvases.

Can the students work together on a large mural?

Yes, we believe in the power of teamwork! While kids can work on individual boards, we often facilitate large-scale collaborative murals where the whole class contributes to one giant 'Mount Hagen' themed piece. This is a fantastic way to teach kids about cooperation, communication, and how individual efforts combine to create something massive and beautiful. It’s a great souvenir for the school walls too!

Can we choose a specific theme for the artwork?

Absolutely! We love it when schools want to tie the workshop into their current curriculum. Whether you are studying local Papua New Guinean flora and fauna, history, or specific values like 'kindness' and 'community,' we can theme the graffiti tags and colours to match. Just let us know your ideas beforehand, and our artists will prep the session to reinforce what the kids are learning in class.

Local culture

Mount Hagen is world-famous for its incredible Hagen Cultural Show and the stunning traditional body art of the Western Highlands. We love blending this rich local heritage with modern street art techniques! Imagine the vibrant earth tones of PNG meeting the neon pops of a spray can. Our workshops respect the local culture while giving kids a new, contemporary way to express their identity.

Fun Fact: Mount Hagen is known as one of the oldest sites of agricultural activity in the world (Kuk Swamp). We think it’s the perfect place to grow some brand-new artistic talent! 🌿

From the bustling central market to the quiet school gates, we bring the vibe of the city right into your classroom. We’ve worked across Papua New Guinea, and there's nothing quite like the creative energy we find in the Highlands.
