What age groups can participate in the Darwin school holiday workshops?

Our school holiday workshops are designed for kids and teens aged 6 to 18. We group participants by age where possible to ensure the teaching style matches their skill level. Younger kids focus on basic shapes and safety, while older teens can dive into complex layering and letter structure. It is a fantastic way for different age groups to express themselves in a supervised, creative environment. 🎨

Is it safe for my kids to use spray paint?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective ponchos to all participants. Our professional artists lead a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We use low-odour, high-quality paints, and all sessions take place in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces to ensure everyone stays safe while having a blast. 🛡️

Do the kids need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Whether your child is a budding Picasso or hasn't picked up a brush since preschool, our artists will guide them through every step. We start with the basics of 'can control' and move through simple techniques so that every participant walks away with a piece of art they are proud of. ✍️

What should my child wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing 'art clothes'—things you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide protective ponchos and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be a bit messy, especially when kids are having this much fun! Closed-toe shoes are a must for safety. We also suggest bringing a hat, sunscreen, and a water bottle since Darwin can get quite warm during the day. 👕

Do they get to keep the artwork they create?

Depending on the specific package booked, kids often work on a large collective mural or their own individual canvas. If they create a canvas piece, they absolutely get to take it home to show off to friends and family! If we are working on a community wall, we make sure to take plenty of high-quality photos so they have a digital memory of their epic creation. 🖼️

How long does a typical graffiti workshop last?

A standard school holiday session usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This provides enough time for the safety briefing, technique practice, and the creation of the final masterpiece without the kids losing focus. It’s the perfect duration to keep the energy high and the creativity flowing from start to finish. ⏱️

How do I book a spot for the next holiday break?

Booking is easy! You can use our online Cost Calculator to get an instant estimate, or simply send us a request through our contact form. Because our Darwin workshops are popular during the holidays, we recommend getting in touch at least a few weeks in advance to secure your preferred date. No upfront payment is required—you pay after the workshop is complete! 📅
