What is the ideal group size for a school workshop?

To ensure every student gets plenty of hands-on time and the best guidance from our artists, we usually suggest groups of 15 to 20 students per instructor. For larger secondary schools in Adama, we can easily send multiple artists to manage separate groups simultaneously. This setup keeps the energy high and ensures that every student feels supported as they learn to master the spray can safely.

Is it safe for secondary school students?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep students and their uniforms clean. Our instructors are experienced professionals who give a thorough safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We use low-pressure paint which is easier to control, making it much safer and more enjoyable for teenagers who are trying graffiti for the first time.

Do students need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. We start with the basics—how to hold the can, how to control the pressure, and how to draw simple lines. Our artists guide the students through every step, from sketching their ideas to adding the final highlights. By the end of the session in Adama, even students who didn't think they were 'artistic' will be amazed at what they created.

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard secondary school workshop usually lasts between 2 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows for a solid introduction, a practice session on plastic film or boards, and the creation of a final masterpiece. If your school schedule in Adama is tighter, we can adapt the program into a 90-minute intensive session or expand it into a full-day art project depending on your specific needs.

Where in Adama do these workshops take place?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop directly on your school grounds in Adama using mobile walls or high-quality plastic wrap stretched between poles. If you prefer to get the students out of the classroom, we can also look for authorized local spots or creative spaces nearby. We handle all the setup and cleaning, so your school facilities remain exactly as we found them.

What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule?

We understand that school plans can change. That is why we offer a very flexible booking policy. You don't have to pay anything upfront; you only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. If you need to reschedule due to school events or weather, just let us know in advance, and we will work with you to find a perfect new date.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your students in Adama? It’s more than just painting walls—it’s about empowerment and new perspectives. Here is why it works:

Boosts confidence: Seeing a large-scale piece come to life gives students a massive sense of achievement.
Promotes teamwork: Collaborative murals require students to communicate and work together to achieve a unified vision.
Cultural relevance: Graffiti is a language teenagers understand; it connects school to the modern world they see online.
Stress relief: The physical act of spray painting is a great outlet for students to decompress from academic pressure.
Safe environment: We provide a controlled, legal space for students to explore street art without the risks of illegal activity.
Professional guidance: Learn from the best—our artists are mentors who share real-world creative industry insights.

Step by step

Introduction and history: We start with a brief, engaging talk about the roots of graffiti and how it evolved from street culture into a respected global art form.
Safety and gear: Students get geared up with protective suits, gloves, and masks while learning the essential safety rules for using spray paint.
Technical basics: Our artists demonstrate 'can control'—teaching students how different nozzles (caps) change the width and texture of the spray.
Sketching the concept: Before hitting the wall, students sketch their ideas on paper, focusing on letter structure, flow, and composition.
Practice session: We head to the practice surface where students get a feel for the paint, practicing lines, dots, and fills.
Creating the masterpiece: Students work on their final project, whether it is an individual piece or a large collaborative mural for the school.
Outlining and details: We teach the 'pro' tricks, like adding sharp outlines, highlights, and 3D effects to make the artwork pop.
