Is the paint safe for students to use?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority for every Honolulu school workshop. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits for every student. Our spray paints are selected for lower toxicity, and we always conduct sessions in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our professional instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a fun, worry-free environment for teachers and kids alike.

What should students wear to the workshop?

We recommend that students wear 'old' clothes and sneakers that they don't mind getting a little colorful. While we do provide protective gear like suits and gloves, graffiti art can be messy, and stray paint happens! Since Honolulu's weather is usually warm, light and breathable clothing under the protective suits is best. We take care of everything else, including all the professional art supplies.

Can you host the workshop at our school?

While we can host groups at various public spots or our partner locations in Honolulu, we often bring the workshop directly to your school campus! As long as there is an outdoor space with good ventilation and a wall or mobile boards we can use, we are mobile. This saves you the hassle of organizing buses and off-site field trip logistics.

What age group is this workshop suitable for?

Our workshops are highly adaptable! We recommend them for students aged 10 and up to ensure they have the physical strength to operate the spray cans correctly. For younger elementary students, we can pivot the program to focus more on street-style markers and stencil art, ensuring everyone gets to express their creativity regardless of their age or skill level.

How long does a typical school session last?

The standard school workshop in Honolulu typically lasts between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. However, we are totally flexible! If you need to fit the session into a specific double-period class block or want to make it a full-day 'art intensive' event, we can customize the schedule to meet your curriculum needs and school timetable perfectly.

Do students need prior art experience?

No artistic experience is required at all! In fact, many students who think they 'aren't good at art' find that graffiti is the perfect medium for them. Our instructors are experts at breaking down complex techniques into simple, manageable steps. We focus on the 'fun' and 'expression' parts of art, ensuring every student walks away feeling like a pro.

The masterpiece: Students work on their final project, whether it's an individual canvas or a massive collaborative school mural.
Detailing & outlines: We teach the 'clean-up' phase, using outlines and highlights to make the artwork pop and look professional.

Local culture

Honolulu isn't just about white sand beaches; it's home to one of the most vibrant street art scenes in the Pacific! Areas like Kaka'ako have transformed into world-class outdoor galleries thanks to festivals like POW! WOW! Hawaii. We bring that same urban energy to our workshops, showing students that art can live on the streets and contribute to the community's beauty. Our instructors are deeply connected to the local 'ohana of artists, ensuring students learn the difference between 'tagging' and the intentional street art that defines modern Honolulu. ✨
