Is the graffiti workshop safe for students?

Absolutely! Safety is our biggest priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for every student. Our spray paints are low-odour and we always conduct school workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our professional artists are experienced in managing groups and ensure that every student follows safety protocols while having the time of their lives.

What age group is this workshop suitable for?

Generally, we recommend our workshops for students aged 10 and up (Year 5 and above). At this age, they have the physical coordination to handle the spray cans and the focus to follow the artistic techniques. However, we can adapt the program for slightly younger groups using water-based markers or stencils if requested. It’s a fantastic way to engage teenagers who might usually be hard to reach!

Where do the workshops take place in Brisbane?

We are fully mobile! We usually bring the street art experience directly to your school grounds in Brisbane. All we need is an outdoor space with a wall or we can set up our mobile cellophane 'walls' between pillars or trees. If you'd prefer an excursion, we can also arrange to meet your group at a legal street art wall in the city.

How long does a typical school session last?

Our standard school workshops typically run for about 2 hours, which fits perfectly into a double-period block. However, we’re flexible! We can condense it into a 90-minute session or extend it into a full-day 'intensive' mural project if your school is looking to create a permanent piece of art on a campus wall.

What do we need to provide for the workshop?

We take care of everything so you don't have to worry about a thing. We provide the spray paint, caps, safety gear (masks, gloves, suits), and the 'canvas' (either mobile walls or individual boards). We just recommend that students wear old clothes and sneakers just in case, even though we provide protective suits. We also bring the music to keep the vibes high!

Do students need prior art experience?

Not at all! One of the best things about graffiti is that it’s a very forgiving medium. Our artists guide the students through basic 'can control' and lettering techniques. Even students who claim they 'can't draw' are always amazed at what they can create by the end of the session. It’s a huge confidence booster for everyone involved.

How do I book and what is the cost?

Getting a quote is super easy. Because prices vary based on your group size (usually between A$40 and A$90 per student) and your specific requirements, we recommend using our online cost calculator or sending us a quick message. We don’t require upfront payments, and we have a 100% satisfaction guarantee to ensure your school gets the best value.

Step by step

Intro & safety briefing: We kick things off with a quick chat about the history of street art and a vital safety demo on how to use the gear properly.
Learning the tools: Students get to know the spray cans, learning about different 'caps' for skinny or fat lines.
Mastering techniques: Our pros teach the basics—fading, outlines, and how to create that classic 'dripping' effect.
Sketching the vision: Students brainstorm their designs, focusing on typography, tags, and character art.
First layers: The spraying begins! Students apply their base colours to the mobile walls or canvases.
The 'cut back': We show them how to sharpen their lines and add shadows to make their art pop.
Final highlights: Adding those white 'shines' and final flourishes that turn a sketch into a masterpiece.
The big reveal: We do a group walkthrough and 'gallery viewing' so everyone can celebrate the talent in the room.
Pack up & photos: We handle the cleanup, leaving you with nothing but great photos and inspired students.

Local culture

Brisbane (or 'Brissy' as we love to call it) has transformed into a world-class street art destination. From the iconic murals in Fish Lane at South Brisbane to the hidden gems tucked away in Burnett Lane, the city is a living gallery. Our workshops tap into this local 'Brisvegas' energy, showing students that the art they see on their way to school is part of a rich, global tradition. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know Brisbane hosts the 'Brisbane Street Art Festival' (BSAF) every year? It’s one of the largest of its kind in Australia, proving that our city is a massive hub for creative legends!

We often draw inspiration from the local scenery—from the curves of the Story Bridge to the bold colours of the Queensland sun—helping students connect their art to the place they call home. 🔥

Pricing

We believe high-quality art education should be accessible, which is why we offer flexible pricing based on your school's specific needs and group size.
