What should the kids wear to the graffiti workshop?

Since we use professional spray paints, we suggest wearing old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a few flecks of colour on. We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and masks to keep everyone safe and as clean as possible, but in the heat of the creative moment in Tamale, a little 'artistic splash' can happen!

Is the paint and equipment safe for children?

Safety is our number one priority! We provide FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure no one breathes in fumes, along with gloves and suits. Our workshops set up in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces. Plus, our professional artists are trained to supervise children, ensuring the spray cans are used responsibly and everyone stays safe while having a blast.

What is the minimum age for participants?

Our school holiday workshops are usually designed for children aged 6 and up. Younger kids might find the spray cans a bit heavy to press, but we have special techniques to help them out! We tailor the teaching style to the age group, ensuring the teenagers are challenged with complex techniques while the younger ones focus on bold shapes and fun colours.

Do the kids need any prior drawing or art skills?

No way! That is the beauty of street art. Our artists start with the absolute basics, teaching everyone how to hold the can and control the flow. We often find that kids who think they aren't 'artistic' end up creating the most amazing pieces once they feel the freedom of a spray can. It’s all about expression, not perfection.

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

Tamale's weather is usually great, but if we get a sudden tropical downpour, we have backup plans! We can either move to a covered outdoor area or use an indoor space with extra ventilation. We also have a flexible booking policy with backup artists on hand, so we do our absolute best to ensure the holiday fun goes ahead as planned.

How long does a typical holiday session last?

Standard holiday sessions last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives the group enough time to learn the safety rules, practice their 'tagging' on plastic film or practice walls, and then complete a final masterpiece on a real canvas or a designated wall. It’s a fast-paced, high-energy session that keeps everyone engaged from start to finish!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for the school holidays? It’s more than just painting; it's about building confidence, expression, and having a total blast. Here’s why we’re the top choice in Tamale:

🔥 Pro Artist Mentors: The kids learn from real street artists who live and breathe this culture.
🎨 Total Creative Freedom: There are no 'mistakes' in graffiti, only 'happy accidents' and new styles.
💪 Confidence Booster: Seeing a giant, colourful mural completed from scratch gives kids an incredible sense of achievement.
🛡️ Safety First: We use high-quality safety gear and professional-grade, low-pressure cans that are easier for kids to use.
🚀 Zero Boredom: It’s fast-paced, physical, and totally different from any other holiday camp or school tech class.
🏆 Take-Home Art: In most sessions, the kids create their own canvas to hang on their bedroom wall as a permanent trophy!

Step by step

Welcome and safety briefing: We start by meeting the group and gearing everyone up with masks, gloves, and overalls. Safety first, cool art second!
Introduction to street art: Our pro artists give a quick, fun history of graffiti and explain the difference between 'tagging', 'throwing', and 'pieces'.
Control the can: The kids grab their first cans and practice 'can control'—learning how to make thin lines, fat dots, and smooth fades on our practice surfaces.
Sketching the design: Everyone gets to brainstorm their own unique design or nickname. We help them think about 3D effects and colour combinations.
The outline phase: This is where it gets real! Participants start sketching their main design onto their final canvas or designated wall area using light colours.
Filling in: The most satisfying part—filling the letters and shapes with vibrant, bold colours. Our team helps with layering and pressure techniques.
The 'Power-Line': We teach the kids how to add a sharp outline (the 'power-line') and highlights to make their artwork pop off the surface.
Final touches and photos: We add those last-minute details and then it's time for a group photoshoot with the finished masterpieces!

Good to know

Duration: Sessions typically run for 1.5 to 3 hours—perfect for maintaining focus and high energy.
Group size: We cater to everything from small groups of friends to large community holiday programmes.
Everything included: We provide all premium spray paints, protective masks, gloves, overalls, and canvases for the kids to take home.
Safety: Full FFP2/3 respiratory protection is provided, and all sessions are led by experienced artists who prioritise a safe environment.
No stress: You don't need to pay upfront! We believe in our service, so you pay after the workshop is complete.

Local culture

Tamale is the heartbeat of the Northern Region, a city where tradition meets a growing modern energy. We love running workshops here because the local youth have such a fantastic sense of rhythm and pattern, which translates perfectly into street art! While the city is famous for its bustling markets and the stunning Central Mosque, we’re helping add a new layer of contemporary colour to the local scene. Our workshops often take place in open, breezy spaces that capture the unique atmosphere of the North.

Fun Fact: Did you know Tamale is often called the 'Bicycle Capital' of West Africa? Just like the locals navigate the streets with skill on two wheels, we teach the kids to navigate a canvas with the same precision and flow! 🚲🎨

Pricing

Our workshop prices are as flexible as our art! Because every group is different, we don't have a one-size-fits-all price list. Prices depend on your group size, the location in Tamale, and the specific setup you're looking for.
