How long does a typical school workshop last?

Most of our secondary school workshops in Gothenburg last between 2 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows enough room for a solid introduction to the history of street art, a safety briefing, practice sessions on plastic film or boards, and the final creation of a collaborative masterpiece. Longer sessions can be arranged if you want to dive deeper into specific techniques or mural design.

Is the spray paint safe for students to use?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 respirators, protective overalls, and gloves to every student. We also use low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control and produce less fumes. Whenever possible, we conduct sessions outdoors or in well-ventilated areas to ensure a healthy environment for both students and staff members.

Do students need any prior drawing or art skills?

Absolutely not! Our workshops are designed for complete beginners. Our professional artists are experts at breaking down complex styles into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic 'tagging' and 'throwing' before moving on to 3D effects and highlights. Every student, regardless of their artistic background, will walk away having created something they are proud of.

Where in Gothenburg do the workshops take place?

We are highly flexible! We can host the workshop at your school grounds using mobile walls or temporary plastic wrap 'canvas' between trees or poles. Alternatively, we can help arrange a session at one of Gothenburg's legal graffiti walls, like the famous Röda Sten area. We bring all the necessary equipment to the location of your choice.

Can this workshop help with team building for my class?

Graffiti is a fantastic tool for promoting teamwork, communication, and mutual respect. For secondary schools, we often suggest a 'Big Piece' project where the whole class must collaborate on one giant mural. This requires planning, delegating tasks, and working together to ensure the colours and styles match—perfect for strengthening class bonds and building confidence.

What should the students wear on the day?

We recommend wearing old clothes and sneakers just in case, even though we provide full-body protective suits and gloves. Spray paint is permanent on fabric, and while our suits are high-quality, it’s always better to be safe than sorry when getting creative with aerosols! Comfortable outdoor footwear is also a must for standing during the session.

What happens if we need to cancel or change our booking?

We understand that school budgets and schedules can be complex. That is why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy and never require upfront deposits. You only pay once the session is complete and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. If you need to reschedule, we have backup artists ready to ensure your event always goes ahead.

Step by step

Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy look at the history of street art and how it evolved from NYC subways to Gothenburg's galleries.
Safety first: Every student gets kitted out in professional protective gear, including masks and overalls, while we explain the "rules of the can."
Mastering the nozzle: Students learn how to control spray pressure and distance to create thin lines, fat drips, and smooth gradients.
Sketching the vision: Before hitting the wall, we brainstorm a theme—perhaps a school value or a local Gothenburg landmark—and sketch the design.
Outlining & filling: The real fun begins as students start "blocking in" their characters and letters with vibrant colours.
Adding the 'pop': We teach advanced tricks like 3D shadowing, "force fields" (outer glows), and highlights to make the art jump off the surface.
Final touches: Our pro artists help the students add clean outlines and details to polish the collaborative mural.
Photo op & wrap-up: We celebrate the finished piece with a group photo and a reflection on what the students have achieved together.

Local culture

Gothenburg has a rich, complex relationship with street art, evolving from strict "zero tolerance" years to becoming a city that celebrates murals and public expression. From the iconic Röda Sten Konsthall—a former boiler house turned cultural landmark—to the legal walls that dot the city, Gothenburg is the perfect backdrop for budding artists to find their voice. The city's maritime history and industrial edge provide endless inspiration for urban creativity.

Fun Fact: Did you know Gothenburg is home to 21km—one of the largest urban art projects in the world? It stretches from the city centre to the suburbs, proving that this city truly breathes street art!
