Do the children need to have prior drawing skills?

Not at all! Our Tshikapa workshops are designed specifically for primary school beginners. Our professional artists break down the process into easy, manageable steps that every child can follow. We focus on basic shapes, simple letter structures, and fun filling techniques. By the end of the session, even the students who thought they couldn't draw will be amazed at the vibrant masterpiece they've helped create. It is all about confidence and participation!

Is the spray paint safe for primary school students?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality, low-odour spray paint specifically selected for use in educational settings. Every student is equipped with protective gloves, masks, and aprons to keep them clean and safe. Our instructors are highly experienced in managing groups of children and ensure that the 'spray zone' is always supervised and well-ventilated. We maintain a professional and controlled environment throughout the entire creative process.

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard primary school workshop in Tshikapa typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe is perfect for maintaining high energy levels without the kids getting tired. We start with a brief history of street art and safety demo, followed by sketching, and then the exciting part: painting! We can easily adjust the schedule to fit into your specific school timetable or morning/afternoon blocks.

Where in Tshikapa do the workshops take place?

We are fully mobile! We usually bring the street art experience directly to your school grounds in Tshikapa. We can set up on a playground, a sports field, or against a designated wall (using boards if a permanent mural isn't planned). This makes it easy for the school logistically, as there is no need for expensive transport or off-site permissions. We bring all the necessary equipment to your doorstep.

What do the students actually paint on?

The beauty of graffiti is that it can be done on almost anything! We often use large wooden panels or heavy-duty plastic film stretched between poles, which allows the school to keep the artwork or move it later. However, we also offer canvas workshops where each student creates a smaller piece to take home, or we can even create a permanent, legal mural on a school wall to brighten up the campus.

Can we choose a specific theme for the artwork?

Absolutely! We love it when schools link the workshop to their current curriculum. Whether you are studying local Kasai history, environmental issues, or school values like 'Respect' and 'Teamwork', we can theme the graffiti designs around these topics. It is a fantastic way to reinforce classroom learning through a hands-on, visual medium that students will remember for years to come. Just let us know your theme in advance!

How does the payment process work for schools?

We believe in making things easy for educators. There is no upfront payment required to book your date. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. We accept various payment methods and will provide a clear invoice for your school's administration. This 'pay-after' policy ensures that you can book with total peace of mind and confidence in our quality.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your primary school in Tshikapa? It is more than just a fun day out—it is an educational powerhouse that engages students in a way traditional art classes often can't. Here is why it works:

Boosts Confidence: Seeing a giant, colourful mural they helped create gives pupils a huge sense of accomplishment. 💪
Encourages Collaboration: Large-scale graffiti is a team sport! Students must communicate and coordinate to finish their masterpiece.
Safe & Professional: We use kid-safe materials and our experienced artists know exactly how to manage a school group.
Cultural Connection: Street art is a modern, relevant medium that resonates with young people today. 🎤
No Stress for Teachers: We bring all the supplies and handle the setup and cleanup. You just enjoy the smiles! 🎉

Step by step

The big intro: We start with a high-energy introduction to the world of street art, explaining its history and how it transformed from tags into global art.
Safety first: Our artists demonstrate the correct way to use spray cans, including how to wear masks and gear properly to stay safe and clean.
Design brainstorming: Students grab paper and pencils to sketch out their ideas, focusing on bold letters and local Tshikapa-inspired symbols.
Can control 101: Before hitting the main wall, the kids practice basic lines and dots on a 'practice board' to get a feel for the pressure of the spray.
The outline phase: Our pros help the students transfer their sketches onto the large-scale surface, creating the 'skeleton' of the mural.
Filling with colour: This is the fun part! Students work together to fill in the designs with a vibrant explosion of colours.
Adding the 'pop': We teach the kids how to add highlights and 3D shadows to make their graffiti letters look like they are jumping off the wall.
The final outline: Our artists help refine the edges with a sharp black outline to make the collective artwork look professional and polished.
The grand reveal: We take a group photo with the finished masterpiece! The students celebrate their hard work and newfound skills.

Local culture

Tshikapa is a city on the move, known for its bustling markets and the incredible energy of the Kasai-Longatshimo confluence. We bring that same local vibrancy into our workshops. While Tshikapa is famous for its diamonds, we believe the true gems are the creative young minds in its schools! Street art in the DR Congo is a powerful tool for storytelling, and we encourage students to incorporate local symbols and Congolese flair into their work.

Fun Fact: Did you know that the name 'Tshikapa' is said to come from the word for 'belt' because of the way the rivers wrap around the city? We love using this local 'flow' as inspiration for our graffiti letter connections! 🌊

Pricing

We offer competitive rates for schools across the Kasai-Occidental region. Our pricing is transparent and includes all materials and professional instruction.

Price Range: FC 50,000 - FC 120,000 per person

*Note: Final pricing depends on the number of students, the duration of the session, and the type of canvas or wall used.

We don't require any upfront payment—you only pay once the kids are beaming with pride at their new mural! 🔥
