Is spray painting safe for primary school children?

Safety is our number one priority! We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. Our spray paints are low-odour and we always conduct primary school workshops in well-ventilated outdoor spaces. Our professional artists are experienced in working with younger children, ensuring they follow safety protocols while having an absolute blast. It is a controlled, fun, and completely safe environment for every student.

Do the students need prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels. Our artists start with the basics, teaching the kids how to hold the can and create simple shapes. Most of the children have never touched a spray can before, and that is part of the magic. We guide them step-by-step so that by the end of the session, every student feels like a confident street artist.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard primary school workshop in Nyeri typically lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This provides enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the creation of a final masterpiece. We can also adjust the timing to fit into your school’s specific timetable or double-up sessions to accommodate multiple classes throughout the school day.

Where do the workshops take place in Nyeri?

We bring the street art studio to you! We usually set up on the school playground, sports field, or any well-ventilated outdoor area. We use large mobile boards or canvases, so there is no permanent mess left on your school walls. If it rains, we can work under a gazebo or move to a very well-ventilated indoor hall with extra floor protection.

What is the ideal group size for a school workshop?

We recommend a minimum of 10 students for a great group dynamic, but we can easily accommodate entire year groups. For very large schools, we often rotate classes through different stations or run consecutive sessions throughout the day. This ensures every child gets plenty of hands-on time with the spray cans and individual attention from our professional graffiti artists.

What about the mess and cleanup?

We handle the mess so you don't have to! We provide protective overalls, but we always suggest students wear "play clothes" or their PE kits on the day of the workshop just in case. Our team sets up protective floor coverings and ensures the workspace is tidy. Once we are finished, we pack everything up, leaving your school grounds exactly as we found them.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your school? It’s a total game-changer for student engagement! Here’s why primary schools in Nyeri love working with us:

Boosts confidence: Seeing a massive piece of art come to life gives kids a huge sense of accomplishment. 💪
Inclusive creativity: Unlike traditional drawing, graffiti is very forgiving—perfect for kids who don't usually consider themselves "artists."
Teamwork in action: Many of our projects involve students working together on a single large canvas, teaching them the power of collaboration. 🎤
Safe and professional: We use high-quality gear and eco-friendly paints, led by artists who know how to keep things fun but orderly.
No stress for teachers: We bring everything, set it all up, and handle the cleanup. You just sit back and watch the magic happen!
Memories that last: It’s not every day you get to spray-paint at school! This is an experience the pupils will talk about for years. 🚀

Step by step

Introduction and safety briefing: Our artists arrive at your Nyeri school and set up the creative zone. We start with a fun talk about the history of graffiti and a vital safety demonstration on how to use the equipment properly.
Mastering the nozzle: Before jumping into a big piece, students learn 'can control.' We teach them how different pressures and distances from the board change the thickness and texture of the lines.
Sketching the vision: Every great mural starts with a plan. Kids get to sketch their ideas on paper or directly onto the canvas using chalk, focusing on bold letters and vibrant characters.
First sprays: This is the exciting part! Students begin filling in their outlines with their chosen colours, learning how to blend shades and create cool gradients across their letters.
Adding the details: Once the base colours are down, we show them how to add 'highlights' and 'lowlights' to give their graffiti a 3D effect that really pops off the wall.
The final outline: A sharp black or white outline brings the whole piece together. Our artists help the kids refine their edges to give the final artwork a professional, polished look.
The grand reveal: We step back and admire the collective work! It’s a proud moment for the students to see what they’ve created together.
Photos and certificates: We capture high-quality photos of the students with their work. Each participant leaves with a sense of achievement and a story to tell at home.

Good to know

Local culture

Nyeri, sitting in the shadow of the magnificent Mount Kenya, is a city full of heritage and natural beauty. While it’s known for its lush coffee and tea estates, there is a growing appetite for modern, urban creative expressions among the youth. Our workshops bring a touch of Nairobi-style urban flair to the highlands, allowing Nyeri’s school children to experiment with a global art form right in their own backyard.

Fun Fact: Nyeri is the final resting place of Lord Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scouts. Just like the scouting movement, our graffiti workshops focus on 'learning by doing' and fostering a sense of community and outdoor adventure! 🏔️ 🔥
