Is the spray paint safe for primary school children?

Safety is our top priority! We use high-quality, low-odour spray paint specifically selected for school environments. Every child is provided with a high-grade respirator mask, protective gloves, and a full-body overall to keep their school uniforms clean. Our instructors are professional artists who have extensive experience working with primary-aged children, ensuring a supervised, structured, and completely safe creative space for every student involved.

Do the students need to have prior drawing skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. We start with the basics—how to hold the can, how to control pressure, and how to draw simple lines. Our 'Graffitifun' artists provide step-by-step guidance, ensuring that every child, regardless of их natural artistic ability, walks away feeling like a pro. It’s all about building confidence and having a blast with new colours!

Where in Mwanza does the workshop take place?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop directly on your school grounds in Mwanza, using mobile wooden walls or large canvases. If outdoor space is an issue, we can even set up temporary 'graffiti walls' that are easy to remove. We bring everything to you, so there is no need for expensive transport or logistics. We just need an open, ventilated area!

How long does a typical session last?

A standard primary school workshop typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a short introduction to street art history, a safety briefing, technique practice, and the creation of the final masterpiece. We can also adapt the schedule to fit into your specific school timetable or split the day into multiple sessions for different classes.

What is the minimum age for the students?

Standard graffiti workshops are most successful for children aged 8 and up (typically Key Stage 2), as they have the hand strength to operate the spray cans. However, for younger students, we offer adapted 'Street Art' workshops using paint markers and brushes, ensuring that everyone from Year 1 to Year 6 can get involved in the creative process safely.

Can we choose a specific theme for the artwork?

Absolutely! We love it when schools have a specific theme, such as 'The Environment', 'African Wildlife', or 'School Values'. Our artists can pre-sketch a giant mural based on your chosen topic, which the children then help to colour and bring to life. This makes the workshop a fantastic cross-curricular activity that ties into your existing lesson plans.

How do we book and what are the costs?

Getting a price is easy! Because costs vary based on the number of students, the amount of materials needed, and the duration of the event, we provide custom quotes. We don't require any payment upfront—you only pay after the workshop is complete. Simply use our online Cost Calculator or send us a message to get an instant estimate for your school!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your primary school? It’s more than just painting—it’s about building life skills in a way that feels like pure play. Our sessions in Mwanza offer:

Confidence Boost: Seeing a giant piece of art come to life gives students a massive sense of achievement. 🏆
Teamwork: Collaborative murals teach kids how to communicate and work towards a shared goal. 🤝
Safe Expression: We provide a controlled, professional environment to explore a 'rebellious' art form responsibly.
Stress-Free for Teachers: We handle everything—from the materials to the clean-up—so you can enjoy the day too!
No Risk Booking: With our 'pay after' policy, your school's budget is always protected. 💪

Step by step

Intro & Inspiration: We kick things off with a high-energy talk about the history of street art and how it turned from subculture into global fine art.
Safety First: Every student gets geared up! We distribute masks, gloves, and overalls while explaining the 'rules of the road' for using spray cans responsibly.
Mastering the Can: Our pros demonstrate basic techniques—how to make dots, thin lines, and thick 'fat cap' fills on practice boards.
The Big Sketch: Depending on the project, students either sketch their own individual pieces or help outline a massive collaborative mural.
Adding the Colour: This is the best part! Under our guidance, the kids start filling in the art with a vibrant explosion of colours.
Cutting & Fading: We teach the students 'pro tricks' like colour blending and sharp outlines to make their artwork pop.
The Final Reveal: We step back and admire the work. It’s a huge boost for the children's confidence to see what they’ve created from scratch.
The Big Clean-up: We take care of everything. We pack up the gear, dispose of the cans, and leave your school grounds exactly as we found them (except for the amazing new art!).

Good to know

Our workshops are designed to be as easy as possible for schools to organise. Here is what you need to know:

Duration: Flexible sessions ranging from 90 minutes to a full school day.
Group Sizes: We can work with small groups or entire year levels (split into sessions).
Included: All professional spray paint (low-odour), canvases or boards, masks, gloves, and protective suits.
Safety: Full risk assessments provided; our artists are trained in youth workshop safety.
Location: We come to you! We can set up in the school yard, sports field, or any well-ventilated outdoor area.

Local culture

Mwanza, famously known as the Rock City, is a place of incredible natural beauty and growing urban creativity. From the iconic Bismarck Rock to the colourful markets, the city is full of visual inspiration. We love bringing our workshops here because the local students have such a vibrant energy and a unique perspective on art. Tanzanian street art is evolving, and by hosting a workshop at your school, you're tapping into a modern movement that celebrates colour and community.

Fun Fact: Did you know Mwanza's name comes from the word 'Muwanza', which refers to the sound of the lake? We encourage students to find inspiration in the local landscape—from the tilapia in the lake to the balancing rocks—when designing their graffiti masterpieces! 🐟🪨

Pricing

We believe every school in Mwanza should have access to high-quality art education. Because we tailor every workshop to your specific needs—based on the number of students and the type of project (individual canvases vs. a permanent wall mural)—we don't have a one-size-fits-all price.

Prices depend on group size and setup—request a quote today!

The best part? No upfront payment is required. You only pay once the workshop is finished and you’re 100% satisfied with the result. Use our Cost Calculator for an instant estimate! 💰🔥
