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

Most secondary school workshops in Gwangju last between 2 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows students to learn the basic history of street art, practice their can control on test walls, and ultimately complete a large-scale project either individually or as a team. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy high and creativity flowing without student fatigue setting in. We can adjust the timing to fit your specific school timetable.

Is it safe for students to use spray paint?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to protect against fumes, along with gloves and protective suits to keep those school uniforms clean. Our professional artists are trained to supervise students closely, ensuring that the spray cans are used responsibly and safely throughout the session. We also prefer working in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or large indoor halls with proper airflow.

Where in Gwangju do the workshops take place?

We are totally flexible! We can bring our mobile graffiti walls directly to your school grounds in Gwangju, or we can host your group at one of our inspiring local street art partner locations. Many schools prefer the convenience of an on-site workshop in the playground or sports hall, as it eliminates travel logistics for the teachers. Either way, we bring all the necessary equipment and gear to you.

Do students need prior art experience to participate?

No artistic talent is required at all! Our workshops are designed to be inclusive and empowering for every student, regardless of their drawing skills. We teach simple techniques that allow anyone to create something they are proud of quickly. Graffiti is about expression and confidence, not just technical drawing. Our instructors guide the students step-by-step, ensuring everyone walks away with a smile and a sense of achievement.

What materials are included in the workshop package?

We provide everything needed for a complete street art experience. This includes a wide variety of premium spray paint colors, caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective clothing (suits, masks, gloves), and the surface to paint on (either canvases to take home or large boards for a collective mural). You just need to show up in comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little dusty, and we handle the messy stuff!

Do we have to pay in advance for the school workshop?

We believe in the quality of our workshops so much that we don't require upfront payments for school bookings. You can book your date and confirm the details, and payment is handled after the workshop has been successfully completed. This makes the administrative process much easier for schools and provides peace of mind that you'll only pay for an experience that your students truly enjoyed.

What is the maximum group size for a school session?

Typically, we work with groups ranging from 15 up to 100+ students. For larger groups, we simply bring in more professional artists to maintain a low student-to-instructor ratio. This ensures everyone gets personal attention and stay safe. If you have a specific grade level or a very large group in Gwangju, just let us know, and we will create a custom rotation or setup to accommodate everyone.
