Is the spray paint safe for primary-aged children?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odour, water-based spray paints specifically designed for younger users whenever possible. Every student is provided with a high-quality face mask, protective gloves, and a full-body overall to keep those school uniforms clean. Our professional artists are expert facilitators who maintain a structured, supervised environment throughout the entire creative process, ensuring every child feels safe and confident.

Do the students need any prior drawing or art skills?

Not at all! Our Zanzibar City workshops are designed for all skill levels. Most primary schoolers have never touched a spray can before, and that is where the magic happens. We guide them from the very first basic line to more complex shapes. By the end of the session, every child will have contributed to a piece of art they can truly be proud of, regardless of their initial artistic ability.

How long does a typical school workshop session last?

A standard primary school workshop in Zanzibar City typically runs for about 2 hours. This provides enough time for a thorough safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of a large-scale mural or individual canvases. We can also adapt the schedule to fit into a half-day school programme if you have specific timing requirements or lessons to work around.

Can the workshop take place on our school grounds?

We are incredibly flexible! If your school has a suitable outdoor wall or a large courtyard, we can work directly on-site. If not, we can bring large wooden panels or mobile canvases to set up on the school grounds. We also have access to various creative spaces across Zanzibar City if you prefer an off-site excursion. We simply need a well-ventilated area to get the creative juices flowing safely.

How do you handle the topic of vandalism versus art?

We focus on the 'art' in street art. Every session begins with a brief discussion on the history of graffiti and the vital difference between illegal vandalism and commissioned street art. We teach the children that graffiti is a powerful tool for community storytelling and positive expression. By giving them a legitimate, supervised outlet for this art form, we actually encourage respect for public and private property.

What materials does the school need to provide?

We provide everything needed for a successful day of painting. This includes a wide range of professional spray cans in every colour of the rainbow, nozzles (caps) for different effects, protective gear (masks, gloves, overalls), and the painting surfaces (canvases or boards). The school only needs to provide the space and the enthusiastic students! We even take care of the site preparation and post-workshop tidy-up to make it easy for teachers.

What are your booking and payment terms?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'Fun Guaranteed' policy. We don't require any payment upfront. You only pay after the workshop is complete and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. We also have a dedicated team of backup artists ready to step in, so you never have to worry about a cancellation ruining your school's planned activity day. Your peace of mind is our priority!

Safety first: Every student gets kitted out in protective gear while we explain the rules of the 'spray can' to keep everyone safe and clean.
First lines: Kids learn the tech side—how to hold the can, how to control the pressure, and how to create thin and thick lines.
Lettering & shapes: We move on to the basics of "tags" and "throw-ups," helping students turn simple letters into bold, 3D art pieces.
Concept sketching: Students work together to sketch out a theme, often incorporating local Zanzibar elements or school values.
The big mural: The highlights! Students work in small groups to fill in a massive communal wall or individual panels.
Finishing touches: Our pro artists help the kids add outlines and "highlights" to make their artwork pop and look professional.
Group photo & cleanup: We celebrate the masterpiece with a photoshoot and take care of all the waste disposal, leaving your school spotless.

Local culture

Zanzibar City is a place where history and vibrant culture collide, from the winding alleys of Stone Town to the bright colours of the local markets. In a city known for its incredible carved doors and intricate patterns, street art offers a modern way for the younger generation to express their Zanzibari identity. We love incorporating local "flavor" into our sessions, whether that's using colours inspired by the turquoise Indian Ocean or teaching the kids to stylise their names with a bit of island flair. 🏝️

Fun Fact: Did you know that Zanzibar is often called the "Spice Island"? We sometimes challenge students to think about how they could "illustrate" a scent like cloves or cinnamon using only shapes and colours! 🌶️

Pricing

We believe every school project is unique, so we don't do "one size fits all" pricing. Whether you want a small workshop for a single class or a massive mural project involving the whole school, we can make it happen! 🎨
