How long does a typical workshop for secondary school students last?

Most graffiti workshops for secondary schools in Geneva last between 2 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows enough time for the initial safety briefing, sketching designs, and the actual spray painting process. If you have a specific school schedule to stick to, we can easily adapt the duration to fit your morning or afternoon sessions perfectly. Our goal is to ensure every student finishes their masterpiece without feeling rushed.

Is the paint safe for teenagers to use?

Safety is our top priority! We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep students safe and their school uniforms clean. We only use professional-grade spray paint in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our artists are experienced in managing large groups of teenagers, ensuring everyone follows the safety protocols while having a blast. We make sure the environment is controlled, creative, and completely secure.

Can you host the workshop directly at our school?

Absolutely! We are completely mobile and can bring the entire graffiti experience to your school grounds in Geneva. We use temporary high-quality plastic film or mobile wooden panels to create a 'pop-up' spray wall. This means students don't have to travel, and you don't have to worry about transport logistics. If your school doesn't have a suitable space, we can also suggest several legal street art locations nearby.

Do students need to have any previous artistic experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from those who have never held a spray can to the budding artists in the class. Our professional artists guide the students through every step, starting with basic lines and shapes. We focus on the process and the fun of self-expression. By the end of the session, even the most hesitant students are usually surprised by what they have managed to create.

What is the maximum group size for a school workshop?

To ensure everyone gets enough individual attention and stays safe, we typically recommend a ratio of one artist per 15-20 students. However, we have a large team of backup artists and can cater to entire year groups of 100+ students simultaneously by setting up multiple painting stations. Whether it’s a small art elective or a full-school activity day, we have the capacity and the equipment to handle it professionally.

How does the payment process work for Swiss schools?

We understand that school budgets can be tight, so we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront deposits to secure your date. Once the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied with the experience, we will send over the invoice for payment. This makes the administrative process much smoother for teachers and school bursars alike. We believe in our service and want you to feel confident.

What are the educational benefits of a graffiti workshop?

Graffiti is a fantastic way to teach secondary students about teamwork, respect for public space, and the history of modern art. It encourages students who might struggle with traditional academic subjects to engage in a physical, creative medium. It boosts confidence, promotes creative problem-solving, and gives them a sense of ownership over their work. Plus, it's a great stress-buster for students during busy exam periods or transition years.

Detailing: We show the group how to add shadows, highlights, and that professional '3D' effect to make their art pop.

Local culture

Geneva might be known for its watches and international diplomacy, but beneath the polished surface lies a thriving urban art scene. From the legal walls at the Centre de la Roseraie to the colourful murals tucked away in the Les Grottes neighbourhood (locally known as the 'Smurf buildings'), Geneva is a city that appreciates creative expression. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, teaching students how to contribute to their city's culture respectfully. ✨

Fun Fact: Did you know that Geneva hosts several street art festivals throughout the year? The city actively encourages urban art in designated zones to prevent illegal tagging and promote local talent, making it the perfect backdrop for your students to learn the craft!
