Is the workshop safe for secondary school students?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep students safe and their uniforms clean. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated street art zones. Every instructor is a seasoned professional trained in managing large groups, ensuring that the spray cans are used responsibly and that everyone follows the safety guidelines throughout the entire creative session.

Do students need prior art experience?

Not at all! Our Brisbane workshops are designed for all skill levels. Whether a student is a natural-born illustrator or has never held a spray can before, our artists provide step-by-step guidance. We start with basic techniques and 'can control' before moving on to more complex tasks, ensuring every student feels confident and proud of the final masterpiece they help create together.

Where do the workshops take place in Brisbane?

We are completely flexible! We can bring the workshop to your school grounds if you have a suitable outdoor space or a large shed. Alternatively, we can arrange for the session to take place at one of Brisbane's iconic legal street art walls. This gives students the authentic 'street' experience while remaining in a safe, controlled, and legal environment perfect for an excursion.

How much does a secondary school workshop cost?

The total cost depends on the number of students and the specific requirements of your school. Prices generally range from A$40 to A$90 per student. This is all-inclusive, covering premium spray paint, safety gear, boards or canvases, and professional instruction. We don't require upfront payments, and we're happy to provide a detailed, obligation-free quote tailored to your school's budget.

What is the duration of a typical workshop?

A standard secondary school session usually runs for about 2 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for the safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the completion of a large-scale collaborative mural. If you have a specific school timetable to stick to, we can easily adjust the duration of the workshop to fit perfectly into your morning or afternoon periods.

What happens if it rains on the day?

While we can't control the Brisbane weather, we always have a plan B! If the forecast looks dodgy, we can often move the workshop to a sheltered area on school grounds. Because we have a large team of professional artists, we also have backup instructors available to ensure your event goes ahead even if there are last-minute changes. We'll work closely with you to ensure the day is a success.

The experience

Forget the textbook—let's get some paint on those hands! Bringing a graffiti workshop to your Brisbane secondary school isn't just about art; it’s about engagement and expression. Here’s why schools love working with us:

Epic team building: Students have to communicate and collaborate to pull off a large-scale mural. 🤝
Confidence boost: Nothing beats the feeling of seeing a massive artwork you helped create. ✨
Legal & safe: We teach the difference between vandalism and street art, promoting respect for the community.
Pro instructors: Our artists are active in the Brisbane scene and know exactly how to engage teenagers. 🎤
Zero stress for teachers: We handle everything—from the gear and safety to the final cleanup!
Accessible to everyone: You don't need to be a 'good artist' to make something look amazing with a spray can. 🏆

Step by step

Intro and safety: We kick things off with a quick chat about street art culture and a vital safety briefing, handing out masks and gloves.
Mastering the gear: Students learn 'can control'—how to hold the spray can, swap nozzles (caps), and manage pressure for different effects.
Lines and fades: Our pros demonstrate how to create sharp outlines, smooth gradients, and those iconic graffiti 'fades'.
Sketching the vision: Students work together to sketch out their design on the wall or board, planning the layout and colour scheme.
The fill-in: The fun gets real as the students start filling in the large areas of their design with vibrant Aussie-inspired colours.
Dealing with drips: We teach them the 'pro moves'—how to fix mistakes and use drips as intentional artistic elements.
The sharp outline: Students add the final 'power line' or outline to make their letters and characters pop against the background.
Details and highlights: We add those final touches, like highlights, shines, and 'force-fields' around the piece for a professional finish.
Group photo and wrap-up: We finish with a high-energy photo session in front of the mural so students can show off their work to the school community.

Good to know

Duration: Usually 2 to 3 hours (we can adapt to your school periods). 🔥
Group sizes: We cater to everything from small art classes of 15 to entire year levels of 100+ students.
Included: All premium spray cans, specialized caps, protective gear (suits, gloves, masks), and boards or canvases.
Safety: Full risk assessments provided; all instructors hold valid Blue Cards (Working with Children Checks) and use high-grade PPE. 🛡️
Location: At your school or a legal wall in Brisbane—we come to you!

Local culture

Brisbane has a massive street art heartbeat, from the hidden gems in Fortitude Valley to the massive scale murals in South Brisbane. We draw inspiration from the city's local legends and the iconic "Brisbane Style" to show students that art isn't just something you see in a gallery—it's part of the urban landscape. We love bringing that 'BrisVegas' energy to every workshop, helping students connect with the local culture while they spray.

Fun Fact: Did you know that some of Brisbane's most famous legal street art walls are located right near the train lines? It's a nods to the city's rich history of transit art, which has evolved into the world-class murals you see in the CBD today! 🎨

Pricing

Affordable creative experiences

Our workshop prices in Brisbane typically range from A$40 to A$90 per student.

The final price depends on the number of participants, the location, and whether we're painting a permanent mural or temporary boards. We believe in transparency—no hidden fees, and you don't have to pay a cent until the workshop is done!
