Do students need any prior art skills or experience?

No prior artistic experience is needed at all! Our workshops are designed to be accessible for every student, from the naturally gifted to those who have never held a spray can. Our professional artists guide the group through every step, ensuring everyone creates something they are proud of. We focus on the process of creation and self-expression rather than perfection, making it a stress-free and enjoyable experience for all learners. Ready to try? ✨

Is the workshop safe for school-aged children?

The safety of your learners is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep students clean and safe. We also use premium spray paint brands that comply with safety standards. Every session begins with a comprehensive safety briefing, and our artists maintain constant supervision to ensure the cans are used correctly and responsibly throughout the entire workshop. 💪

What should students wear on the day?

While we do provide protective gear, we always recommend that students wear 'old' clothes and comfortable sneakers. Even with suits, a little bit of paint can sometimes find its way onto shoes or sleeves! It's best to dress in layers so students can move freely while they work on their masterpieces. Think of it like a messy science experiment or an active PE lesson! 🎨

Can we choose a specific theme for the graffiti mural?

Absolutely! We can certainly focus on specific themes like 'Heritage Day', 'Environmental Conservation', or even 'Building a Positive School Culture'. We love aligning our workshops with your current curriculum or school values. Just let us know what you have in mind when booking, and our artists will help guide the students to create art that reflects those important messages and ideas. 🌍

Where do the workshops actually take place?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop right on your school grounds (on a courtyard or sports field) using our mobile boards, or we can arrange a session at one of our inspiring street art locations around Cape Town like Salt River. The choice depends on your logistics and whether you want the students to experience a 'field trip' vibe or stay within the school gates. 🏫

How long does a typical school session last?

Our school workshops typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for the intro, safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of the mural or individual canvases. If you have a specific school period or timetable constraint, we can often adjust the pace to fit your schedule. We aim to keep the energy high and the engagement levels even higher! ⏱️

How do we handle the booking and payment?

Booking is simple! You can request a quote via our website. We don't require any upfront payment—you only pay after the workshop is successfully completed. We also have backup artists available, so you never have to worry about a session being cancelled last minute. Our goal is to make the administrative side as smooth as possible for teachers and school staff. 📝
