Is the paint safe for primary school children?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. For primary school sessions in Tanga, we use low-odour spray cans and provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks and gloves. Our instructors are professional artists experienced in working with children, ensuring a supervised, secure, and structured environment where students can explore their creativity without any risks. We also choose well-ventilated outdoor spaces for every workshop.

Do we need to provide our own materials?

Absolutely not! We bring everything required for a successful day of art. This includes high-quality spray paints in a rainbow of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep school uniforms clean. We also provide the 'canvases'—whether that’s large wooden panels, plastic foil stretched between trees, or a school wall you've designated for a permanent mural. You just need to bring the students!

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A typical primary school workshop in Tanga lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This allows enough time for an introduction to graffiti history, a safety briefing, technique practice, and the creation of the final masterpiece. We can also schedule multiple sessions back-to-back if you have several classes wanting to participate, ensuring every student gets their turn with the spray cans.

What is the maximum group size for a school workshop?

We are very flexible! While we recommend a group size of around 15 to 20 students per instructor to ensure everyone gets enough individual attention, we can accommodate entire year groups by bringing along extra artists. We have a large team of backup artists ready to step in, so we can handle large school events in Tanga with ease and professionalism.

Do the children need to have prior artistic skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for complete beginners. Our Tanga-based artists guide the children through every step, from how to hold the can to making crisp lines and cool fades. Most primary schoolers find the technique surprisingly intuitive, and they are always amazed at what they can create by the end of the session. It’s all about building confidence!

What happens if it rains or we need to cancel?

We’ve made our booking process as stress-free as possible for Tanga schools. There is no upfront payment required; you only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. If the weather is looking particularly bad, we can either move the workshop to a covered outdoor area or reschedule for a better day at no extra cost. We want your street art experience to be perfect!

The experience

Bringing a graffiti workshop to your primary school in Tanga isn't just about painting walls—it's about building a sense of community and discovery. Here’s why schools love working with us:

Boosts motor skills: Using a spray can requires coordination and control, helping children develop their physical dexterity. ✨
Total inclusivity: Street art doesn't care if you're "good" at traditional drawing; it's a level playing field for every student! 💪
Zero stress for teachers: We handle everything from setup to cleanup, so you can sit back or even join the fun! 🎤
Collaborative spirit: Many of our workshops focus on large murals where students have to work together to achieve a goal. 🤝
Professional vibes: Our artists are friendly, encouraging, and experts at making street art accessible to all ages. 🏆
No risk booking: With no upfront payment and backup artists ready to go, your school event is in safe hands. 🔥

Step by step

Intro & inspiration: Our professional artists start with a chat about street art history and how it’s used for positive expression.
Design session: Students sketch out their ideas on paper, planning their tags and characters before touching a spray can.
Safety first: We suit everyone up in masks, gloves, and protective gear, followed by a clear safety demonstration.
Mastering the nozzle: Children learn basic techniques, like how to control the pressure and create different line widths.
The practice run: Everyone gets a chance to 'tag' a practice surface to get used to the feel of the spray paint.
Creating the mural: The main event! Students work together to fill in a large-scale artwork or their own individual panels.
The finishing touches: Our artists help the kids add highlights and outlines to make their artwork really 'pop'.
Photo op & cleanup: We take group photos with the final masterpiece and ensure the school grounds are left spotless.

Local culture

Tanga is a city known for its unique blend of colonial history and coastal charm, and we love bringing a modern, urban twist to this beautiful setting. From the historic architecture of the harbour to the natural wonder of the Amboni Caves, Tanga is a place that celebrates heritage—and street art is the newest chapter in that story! We find that local students are incredibly inspired by the vibrant colours of the coast, often incorporating ocean blues and tropical greens into their graffiti designs.

Fun Fact: Did you know Tanga was once the largest port in East Africa? We love to see students incorporate Tanga's maritime history into their workshops, creating murals that feature ships, sisal plants, and the famous Indian Ocean sunset! 🎨

Pricing

We believe in keeping things simple and transparent for schools. Because every workshop is unique—depending on the number of students, the amount of paint used, and the length of the session—we don't have a one-size-fits-all price list. Prices depend on group size and setup—request a quote today for a bespoke estimate!
