Is the graffiti workshop safe for secondary school students?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. Our instructors are professional artists who provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We use low-odour, professional-grade paints and ensure the workshop takes place in a well-ventilated outdoor area or a specifically designated indoor graffiti zone.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard secondary school workshop in Kuopio usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on practice. We wrap up with a final masterpiece session where students can apply everything they've learned. We can also adjust the duration to fit into a specific school timetable or double-period block.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We bring everything! The price includes professional spray paint in a huge variety of colours, high-quality caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective gear (overalls, masks, gloves), and the 'canvas'—which could be a temporary wall, large wooden boards, or individual canvases for students to take home. You just need to show up in old clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on!

Do the students need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to budding young artists. Our instructors break down the process into simple, manageable steps. We focus on the 'fun' and 'expression' parts of art rather than perfection. You’ll be amazed at the high-quality murals students can produce with just a little bit of professional guidance and the right techniques.

Where in Kuopio do the workshops take place?

We are very flexible! We can come to your school grounds in Kuopio if you have a suitable outdoor space, or we can host the group at one of our pre-approved local street art locations. If the weather looks like it won't cooperate (which happens in Finland!), we have backup plans involving indoor-safe methods or covered outdoor areas to ensure the creativity doesn't stop.

What are the educational benefits of a graffiti workshop?

Graffiti is a fantastic way to engage students who might find traditional art classes a bit stifling. It encourages teamwork, boosts confidence, and provides a physical, tactile way to explore colour theory and composition. It's also a great stress-reliever! Many schools find it's the perfect activity for 'wellbeing days' or as a reward for hard work throughout the term. Plus, it makes for some incredible social media content for the school!

Do we have to pay in advance?

There's no need to pay anything upfront! We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you only pay after the event has been successfully completed. We'll send over an invoice once the paint has dried and everyone is happy with the results. This makes the booking process much easier for school administration and departments with specific budget cycles.

Mastering the Can: Our pros demonstrate finger control, distance, and how to create different line widths and effects.
Sketching the Concept: Students grab markers and paper to plan their designs, focusing on 'flow' and letter structure.
First Lines: Time to hit the wall! Students start with their 'buff' (background) and 'outline' their basic shapes.
Filling & Fading: We teach the secrets of smooth colour transitions and eye-popping 'fill-ins'.
The 'Powerline': Students add the final highlights and the 'powerline' (outer contour) to make their artwork truly pop.
The Big Reveal: We finish with a group photo of the finished mural—a perfect moment for the school's social media or newsletter!

Local culture

Kuopio might be famous for its 'Kalakukko' and the stunning Puijo Tower, but there is a growing urban heart beating beneath the surface! The street art scene here is evolving, and we love bringing that modern energy to the local youth. Whether we're setting up near the bustling Market Square or finding a quiet spot by the lake, the natural beauty of Kuopio provides the perfect backdrop for urban creativity.

Fun Fact: Did you know that the Savoy-Karelian spirit of "Leppoisa" (easy-going) is the perfect mindset for graffiti? We encourage students to relax, let the creativity flow, and not worry about making mistakes—that’s where the best art happens!

We also offer workshops in other Finnish cities like Helsinki, Espoo, Tampere, and Turku.
