Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, for every student. Our professional artists are trained to manage school groups, ensuring that the spray cans are used responsibly. We use low-odor paints wherever possible and conduct the workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large halls to ensure a safe environment for everyone involved.

How long does a typical school session last?

A standard school workshop in Kano typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a safety demonstration, practice sessions, and the final creation of a large-scale mural or individual canvases. We can also adjust the timing to fit into a single double-period or a full transition day schedule depending on your school\'s needs.

What materials do we need to provide?

We bring everything! Graffitifun provides premium spray paint, various nozzles (caps), protective clothing, masks, gloves, and the painting surfaces (like large wooden boards or canvases). The only thing the school needs to provide is a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated area and, of course, a group of excited students ready to learn something new and creative!

Do students need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for complete beginners. Our expert artists guide the students through every step, from holding the can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. Whether a student is a naturally gifted artist or someone who has never picked up a paintbrush, they will leave the session feeling proud of what they have created. It’s all about the process and having fun.

What is the ideal group size for a school workshop?

We are very flexible! We can work with small elective art classes of 10-15 students or facilitate large-scale "Creative Days" for an entire year group. For very large groups, we bring in additional backup artists to ensure that every student gets personal attention and guidance. We recommend a ratio that keeps the session interactive and engaging for every participant.

Can the students paint on an actual school wall?

Yes, we do! Many schools in Kano use our workshops to decorate boring playground walls, sports sheds, or indoor common areas. If you want a permanent mural, we can plan the workshop specifically around a theme that reflects the school\'s values or local Kano culture. It’s a fantastic way for students to leave a lasting, positive legacy on their school grounds.

How much does a school graffiti workshop cost in Kano?

Our pricing starts from ₦15,000 per person, but the final cost really depends on the total number of students, the duration of the event, and the materials required. Because school budgets vary, we always suggest reaching out for a custom quote. We don’t require any upfront payment, and you only pay after the workshop is successfully completed to your satisfaction!
