Do the students need any prior drawing skills?

No previous experience or artistic talent is required at all! Our Belo Horizonte workshops are designed specifically for beginners. We start with the basics of how to hold the spray can and how to control pressure. Our professional artists guide the students throughทุก step, ensuring everyone feels confident. It is more about the experience, creativity, and self-expression than being a 'perfect' artist. Every student will walk away with something they are proud of.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for school pupils?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and overalls, to keep everyone safe and clean. We use specialized low-pressure spray cans that are easier for teenagers to control. Before anyone touches a can, we conduct a comprehensive safety briefing covering proper ventilation and handling. Plus, our artists are experienced in managing secondary school groups and maintaining a safe, controlled environment throughout the session.

Can you host the workshop at our school?

Absolutely! We are very flexible and can bring the graffiti workshop to your school premises anywhere in Belo Horizonte. Whether it’s a sports hall, a playground, or a car park, we can set up mobile graffiti walls. This saves you the hassle and cost of arranging transport for the students. If you prefer to get out of the school environment, we also have several creative partner locations throughout the city.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard secondary school workshop typically lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This provides enough time for the introduction, safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of the large-scale artwork. We can also adjust the timing to fit within your school's specific timetable or triple-period blocks. If you are looking for a more intensive experience, we offer half-day and full-day project options as well.

Are the workshops available in English?

Yes, we do. While most of our workshops are conducted in Portuguese to make life easy for local pupils, our artists are also proficient in English. This can be a fantastic way to combine an art lesson with language practice! If you have specific language requirements for an international school group in BH, just let us know during the booking process and we will match you with the right bilingual artist.

What materials are included in the workshop price?

We provide everything needed for a successful session. This includes all the spray paint (a wide range of vibrant colours), protective clothing (masks, gloves, overalls), and the surfaces to paint on (either canvases or mobile wooden walls). We also bring design sketches and inspiration materials. All you need to provide is a group of enthusiastic students and a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space if we are coming to you.

What happens if we need to cancel or change the date?

We understand that things can change. Because we value trust, we don't require any upfront payment – you pay after the workshop is completed and you are satisfied. We also keep a team of backup artists on standby to ensure that your event goes ahead even if an artist falls ill. If you need to reschedule or cancel, just reach out to us as soon as possible, and we will do our best to accommodate you.

The experience

Boost confidence: Graffiti is a great leveller; students who struggle with traditional drawing often find they have a natural knack for spray painting.
Team building: Collaborative mural projects require communication, planning, and cooperation—essential life skills for secondary pupils.
Expert guidance: Work with some of Belo Horizonte's most talented street artists who aren't just great creators, but excellent mentors.
Safe & legal: We teach the difference between illegal vandalism and the art of graffiti, promoting respect for public spaces.
No-risk booking: With no upfront payment and backup artists ready to step in, your school event is in safe hands.
Mental health: Creative expression is a fantastic way for teenagers to de-stress and express their emotions in a positive, physical way.

Step by step

Intro & inspiration: We start with a brief history of world street art and how Belo Horizonte became a hub for the 'Pixo' and mural movements.
Safety briefing: Students get kitted out in protective gear and learn the essential 'golden rules' for using spray cans safely and responsibly.
Basic techniques: Under the guidance of a pro artist, pupils practice basic lines, dots, and fading techniques on a practice surface.
Concept sketching: The group works together or in teams to sketch out their design, focusing on a theme like community, identity, or school spirit.
Outline & fill: The students move to the main walls to block out their designs and start filling their pieces with vibrant colours.
Detailing & 3D: This is where the magic happens! We teach the kids how to add highlights, shadows, and sharp outlines to make their work pop.
Group photo & cleanup: Once the masterpiece is complete, we take a professional group photo and handle all the cleanup, leaving your space spotless.

Local culture

Belo Horizonte is a city that breathes art, from the iconic murals of the CURA festival (Circuit of Urban Art) that tower over the city centre to the hidden gems in the Santa Tereza neighbourhood. The capital of Minas Gerais has a distinct "Mineiro" style that blends traditional culture with modern urban expression. By hosting a workshop here, you are connecting students to the local 'Beagá' identity. We often draw inspiration from the city's architectural landmarks like Pampulha or the surrounding mountains of the Serra do Curral. Our local artists are deeply embedded in the BH scene, ensuring that your students learn not just how to paint, but how to appreciate the cultural significance of the art that surrounds them every day in their own city.

Pricing

Our graffiti workshops for schools in Belo Horizonte are competitively priced to fit educational budgets. Prices typically range from R$120 to R$280 per person.

Please note that the final price depends on the total number of students, the location of the workshop, and the specific materials required (e.g., individual canvases vs. a large collaborative wall).
