What is the minimum age for the workshop?

Our school holiday workshops are designed for anyone aged 6 and up. We use smaller, easier-to-handle spray cans for younger children to ensure they can join in the fun safely. It's a fantastic way for different age groups to collaborate and learn from one another. Our instructors are experts at tailoring their guidance based on each participant's individual skill level and age, making it an inclusive experience for everyone.

Is the spray paint safe for children?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep everyone safe and clean. Our instructors give a comprehensive safety briefing before any cans are shaken, covering everything from spray technique to personal space. We only use professional-grade materials and ensure the workshop area is well-ventilated, so you can focus entirely on having a great time and letting your creativity flow!

Do we need any previous art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are specifically designed for beginners. Whether you have never held a spray can before or you are a budding illustrator, our professional artists will guide you through every step. We start with the absolute basics of 'can control' and build up to more advanced techniques. You will be amazed at what you can create by the end of the session with just a little expert guidance.

What should the kids wear to the session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you wouldn't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide full protective 'propeller' suits and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be a bit messy. It is best to leave your brand-new designer trainers at home and opt for something practical. We provide all the professional art gear, so you just need to bring your enthusiasm and some creative energy!

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard school holiday workshop in Kisumu usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us plenty of time for the introduction, safety briefing, technique practice, and the creation of the final masterpiece. We find this is the perfect duration to keep energy levels high and focus sharp without anyone getting tired. If you have a specific schedule or a very large group, we can certainly adapt the timing to suit your needs.

Where in Kisumu do the workshops take place?

We pride ourselves on being flexible! We can host the workshop at one of our vetted local creative spaces in Kisumu, or if you have a suitable outdoor area (like a school field or a large backyard), we can come to you. Our setup is mobile and designed to transform almost any space into a temporary street art studio. Just let us know your preference when booking, and we'll handle the logistics to make it happen!

Local culture

Kisumu is a city that thrives on rhythm and colour, from the bustling markets to the shimmering horizon of Lake Victoria. Its street art scene is growing, reflecting the city's unique blend of traditional Luo culture and modern urban energy. We love bringing our workshops here because the local youth have such a distinctive creative spark! Whether we’re inspired by the local wildlife or the vibrant "Matatu" culture that zips through the streets, there is never any shortage of inspiration in the "City of Bright Stars."

Fun Fact: Did you know Kisumu's name comes from the Luo word 'Sumo', which means 'a place of barter trade'? We like to think of our workshops as a trade of skills—we give you the graffiti secrets, and you give us your amazing creativity! 🎨
