Do the kids need any prior art experience? Adelaide

Not at all! Our Auckland school holiday workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional street artists will guide the kids through every step, from holding the can correctly to master shading techniques. It's all about having a go, getting creative, and learning something new in a supportive, fun environment. Most kids are amazed at what they can produce by the end of the session!

Is it safe for children to use spray paint?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective ponchos for all participants. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier for younger hands to control, and our artists provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can. We ensure the workspace is well-ventilated and constantly supervised by our expert team.

What should my child wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a bit of 'character' on. While we provide protective ponchos, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or shoes when kids are getting enthusiastic! Think 'painting clothes' rather than your Sunday best. We'll take care of the rest of the gear like masks and gloves.

How long does the graffiti workshop last?

The school holiday workshops typically run for about 2 hours. This gives us enough time for the safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, practice time on the practice walls, and then the final creation of their own masterpiece. It’s a fast-paced and engaging session that keeps the kids focused and entertained from start to finish.

What is the minimum age for participants?

Our standard Auckland holiday program is perfect for kids aged 8 and up. This age group generally has the hand strength to operate the spray cans and the focus to follow the artistic techniques. If you have a slightly younger child who is very keen, get in touch and we can chat about whether the session would be a good fit for them!

Where in Auckland are the workshops held?

We usually host our workshops at vibrant local spots around Auckland, or we can come to a specific venue if you're booking for a large group. We have several 'go-to' creative spaces in areas like Ponsonby or near the CBD that offer the perfect urban vibe for a street art session. We'll confirm the exact location with you during the booking process.

What happens if we need to cancel the booking?

We totally understand that plans can change. That's why we don't require any upfront payment to secure your spot. You can pay after the workshop is completed! If you need to cancel or reschedule, just give us as much notice as possible so we can offer the spot to another budding artist on our waiting list.

Local culture

Auckland’s street art scene is absolutely buzzing, from the iconic murals in Karangahape Road (K' Road) to the hidden gems tucked away in Ponsonby and Britomart. Our workshops tap into this unique Tāmaki Makaurau energy, teaching kids that urban art is a powerful form of storytelling and community pride. We often take inspiration from the incredible local talent that has transformed our city's laneways into world-class galleries.

Fun Fact: Did you know Auckland hosts several street art festivals where international and local artists turn entire building facades into masterpieces? Keep your eyes peeled next time you're walking through the CBD—you might just spot a piece from one of our workshop mentors! 🇳🇿🔥

Pricing

Our Auckland workshop prices typically range from NZ$45 to NZ$95 per person. The final price depends on the number of participants, the length of the session, and whether we're using individual canvases or a giant shared mural wall.

The best part? No upfront payment is required! We believe in our experience so much that you only pay once the workshop is done. 🎉
