Is it safe for primary school children to use spray paint?

Safety is our biggest priority! We provide high-quality FFP3 face masks, disposable gloves, and protective overalls to keep the kids safe and their school uniforms clean. We only use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for smaller hands to control, and our professional artists supervise every single spray. We also ensure the workshop takes place in a well-ventilated outdoor area or a specifically prepared indoor space.

Does this workshop encourage illegal graffiti or vandalism?

Absolutely not! We start every session with an important talk about the difference between street art (legal, beautiful, and respectful) and vandalism (illegal and destructive). We teach the kids that graffiti is a powerful tool for self-expression that should only be practiced on legal walls or canvases. Our goal is to foster a sense of civic pride and artistic responsibility in the young artists of Västerås.

What is the ideal group size for a school workshop?

We recommend typical primary school groups of 15 to 30 students per artist to ensure everyone gets enough attention and painting time. However, we are very flexible! If you have multiple classes or the whole school wants to get involved, we can bring along additional backup artists from our professional team to facilitate a much larger scale project or a full-day 'street art takeover'.

What happens if it rains on the day of our Västerås workshop?

While we love the sunshine at Lake Mälaren, Swedish weather can be unpredictable! If it rains, we can move the workshop under a large canopy, into a well-ventilated gym hall, or use a garage space. We always have a backup plan ready. If the weather is truly extreme, our backup artist system ensures we can reschedule quickly without you losing your deposit or paying upfront.

Do we need to provide any materials ourselves?

Everything is included in the price! We provide all the professional spray paint, caps, safety gear, and the 'canvases' (which could be large plastic wrap walls, wooden boards, or individual canvases). You don't need to worry about hidden costs. The only thing we ask the school to provide is a suitable outdoor space and a group of enthusiastic students ready to learn!

How long does a typical workshop session last?

Most primary school workshops last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for the safety briefing, the history of street art, practicing basic techniques, and then creating the final masterpiece. We find this timeframe is perfect for keeping 6-to-12-year-olds fully engaged and excited without them getting tired. We can also adapt the timing to fit your specific school timetable.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your school? It’s more than just painting on walls—it’s about building confidence and community. Here’s why Västerås teachers love us:

Total Inclusion: You don't need to be "good at drawing" to make amazing graffiti. Every kid finds their style! 🌈
Teamwork in Action: Creating a collaborative mural teaches students how to communicate and work towards a shared goal.
Safe & Professional: We handle all the safety gear and logistics, so you can just enjoy the creative vibes.
Zero Financial Risk: With no upfront payment and our 100% satisfaction focus, your school budget is in safe hands.
Energy & Motivation: Nothing beats the "cool factor" of street art to re-engage students who might find traditional art lessons boring. 🎤
Reliability: We always have backup artists ready to go, so your workshop will never be cancelled last minute!

Step by step

Introduction & culture: We start with a high-energy talk about the history of graffiti, from New York subways to the streets of Västerås.
Safety first: Kids get kitted out in protective gear—masks, gloves, and suits—and we explain the golden rules of using spray cans safely.
The legal talk: We discuss the vital difference between art and vandalism, ensuring kids understand where and how to paint legally.
Mastering the nozzle: Our artists demonstrate 'cap control'—how to make thin lines, fat dots, and smooth fades.
Sketching the vision: Students grab markers and paper to plan their tags and characters before moving to the 'wall'.
First sprays: The kids start practicing their techniques on the practice surface to get a feel for the pressure.
The main event: Everyone works together to create a massive, colourful mural or their own individual masterpiece.
Final touches: We show them how to add 'highlights' and '3D effects' to make their artwork really pop.
The gallery walk: We finish with a celebration of the work, group photos, and a massive boost in creative confidence!
