How long does a typical school holiday workshop last?

Most of our Brisbane school holiday workshops run for approximately 2 hours. This provides the perfect balance of learning the history of street art, practicing can control, and completing a final masterpiece. It’s long enough for kids to get fully immersed in the creative process without losing focus, making it an ideal morning or afternoon activity during the break. We can also customise the duration for larger holiday care groups if needed.

Is it safe for kids to use spray paint?

Safety is our number one priority! We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, for every participant. Our aerosol paints are used in well-ventilated outdoor areas, and our professional artists provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. Our Brisbane team is highly experienced in managing groups of children and teenagers, ensuring everyone has a blast while staying completely safe.

What is the recommended age for participants?

We generally recommend our workshops for kids aged 10 and up. This is because spray cans require a certain level of hand strength and coordination to operate effectively. However, we are flexible! If you have a group with slightly younger siblings, or if you're booking for a high school cohort, we can tailor the complexity of the art project to suit the specific age group and skill level of your participants.

What should the kids wear to the graffiti workshop?

Wear clothes that you don't mind getting a bit of 'character' on! While we provide protective ponchos and gloves, graffiti is a messy art form and stray paint can sometimes find its way onto sleeves or shoes. We recommend old t-shirts, comfortable shorts or trousers, and closed-toe shoes. It’s all part of the authentic street art experience—just make sure your best sneakers stay at home for this one!

Do the kids need any prior drawing or art skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our friendly professional artists break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to 'filling' and 'outlining.' Most kids are amazed at what they can create by the end of the session. It’s all about building confidence and having a go in a supportive, creative environment.

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

Brisbane weather is usually great, but if it looks like a classic Queensland thunderstorm is brewing, we have options! We can either move to a covered outdoor area or, if you prefer, we can reschedule the session. We also have backup artists available to ensure your booking goes ahead smoothly. We’ll always keep you updated 24-48 hours before the event if the forecast looks a bit hairy.

Can you bring the workshop to our location in Brisbane?

Absolutely! We love bringing the street art vibe to you. Whether it’s at a local community centre, a school playground, or even a large backyard, we can set up our mobile graffiti walls almost anywhere in Brisbane. As long as there is enough space and good ventilation, our team will bring all the paint, boards, and gear to your location. This is a popular option for vacation care providers.

Local culture

Brisbane has a massive street art scene that’s evolved far beyond the secret alleyways. From the massive murals in South Brisbane and West End to the hidden gems in Fortitude Valley, the city is a living gallery. Our workshops tap into this local 'Vulture St' energy, teaching kids that street art is a respected form of public expression and storytelling. We often draw inspiration from the bright, tropical colours that define our city’s aesthetic.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Brisbane hosts the "Brisbane Street Art Festival" (BSAF) every year? It’s one of the biggest in Australia, turning the city into a giant canvas for world-class artists! 🎨🔥
