Step by step

  1. Introduction & History: We start with a high-energy intro into the world of street art, discussing its roots and how it evolved into a global phenomenon right here in LA.
  2. Demonstration: Our pro artists show off the "anatomy" of a spray can, demonstrating different strokes, fades, and how to control the pressure.
  3. Safety First: Students get geared up in their masks, suits, and gloves while learning the essential "do's and don'ts" of spray painting.
  4. Tagging Practice: Everyone starts by developing their own "tag" or signature, practicing hand-eye coordination on practice boards.
  5. Sketching the Mural: The group works together or in small teams to sketch out a large-scale concept, focusing on layout and letter structure.
  6. Filling & Coloring: The fun part! Students start filling in their designs with vibrant colors, learning how to layer paint effectively.
  7. Outlining & Detailing: We teach the "cut-back" technique and how to use thin caps for those sharp outlines that make the art pop.
  8. The Big Reveal: The class steps back to admire their collective masterpiece and takes group photos to document the achievement.
  9. Clean Up: We handle the teardown and ensure the school grounds are left spotless, leaving only the memories (and maybe some canvas art) behind!

Local culture

Street art in Los Angeles

Los Angeles isn't just a city; it's a living, breathing gallery. From the iconic murals of Melrose Avenue to the historic tags in the Arts District, the "City of Angels" has a street art soul that inspires artists worldwide. Our workshops tap into this local heritage, teaching students the difference between the legendary "pieces" seen along the LA River and modern professional brand activations. We don't just teach art; we connect students to the visual language of their own neighborhoods.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Los Angeles was once known as the "Murals Capital of the World"? Since the 1970s, the city has used street art to tell community stories and celebrate cultural diversity! 🌟

Whether your school is in Santa Monica, Pasadena, or Hollywood, we bring that authentic LA street flavor right to your campus, safely and professionally.
