Do children need any prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our school holiday workshops are designed for beginners of all ages. Our professional artists start with the basics, from how to hold the spray can to how to control the pressure. You don't need to be 'good at drawing' to create something amazing. We focus on the fun and the process, ensuring everyone walks away with a piece of art they are proud of.🎨

How safe are the spray cans and materials used?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits for all participants. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for kids to handle, and our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas or outdoor spaces. Our artists are experienced in working with youth groups and provide constant supervision to ensure a safe, creative environment for everyone.🛡️

What should we wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable trainers that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be messy business! If it’s a sunny Leeds day, don’t forget some sunblock, and if the British weather is doing its thing, a warm layer under your overalls is a smart move.👟

How long does a typical holiday session last?

Most of our school holiday workshops in Leeds last between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives the group enough time to learn the history of street art, practice their techniques on a practice wall, and then complete their final masterpiece. It’s a fast-paced, high-energy session that keeps everyone engaged from start to finish without any room for boredom!⏱️

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

The British weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got it covered. We have access to various locations in Leeds, including sheltered outdoor spots and well-ventilated indoor spaces. If the weather is truly terrible, we can often relocate to one of our backup indoor sites or reschedule to ensure the quality of the art isn't affected by the rain.🌧️

Can the kids take their artwork home with them?

Yes, one of the best parts of our holiday workshops is that you get to keep what you create! Depending on the specific workshop package, kids will either work on a large communal mural or create their own individual spray-painted boards or canvases. These make for incredible bedroom decorations and a permanent memory of their creative holiday experience in Leeds.🖼️

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

Booking is easy! Use our online cost calculator to get an instant estimate, or send us a message through our contact form. Because our school holiday slots in Leeds fill up fast—especially during summer and half-term—we recommend reaching out as early as possible. We don’t require upfront payment, so you can secure your date with total peace of mind!📅

Local culture

Leeds has a thriving urban art scene that rivals the best in the UK. From the towering "Athena Rising" mural near the train station to the hidden gems in the Northern Quarter, the city is an open-air gallery. Our workshops tap into this local energy, drawing inspiration from the artists who have turned Leeds into a colour-filled hub. We often set up near creative hotspots or community spaces that celebrate the city's industrial-meets-modern aesthetic. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know Leeds is home to one of the tallest murals in the UK? "Athena Rising" stands at a whopping 47 metres high! While we won't be climbing skyscrapers, we'll definitely be channelling that big-scale ambition in our holiday sessions.

Pricing

Our Leeds school holiday workshops are priced to be accessible while providing top-tier materials and professional instruction. Prices generally range between £25 and £55 per person, depending on the length of the session and the size of your group.

We believe in transparency and flexibility. Whether you are a parent looking for a single-day activity or a community centre organising a large-scale holiday programme, we have a package for you. 💸
