Is the workshop safe for students and teachers?

Safety is our top priority! We provide high-quality FFP3 masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep students safe and their uniforms clean. Our professional artists are trained in workshop safety and use low-odour, high-quality spray paints. We also conduct a thorough safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring a controlled and secure environment for all participants during the creative process in Makassar.

Where in Makassar do these school workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible. We can host the workshop directly on your school grounds in Makassar—whether that's on a playground, a sports field, or even indoors in a well-ventilated hall using special water-based paints. If you'd prefer to get away from the classroom, we can often arrange for the session to take place at some of the city's coolest legal street art spots. We bring all the necessary equipment to you!

How long does a typical school session last?

Our standard school workshops usually last between 2 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows enough room for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of a large-scale mural or individual canvases. We can also adapt the schedule to fit into a single double-period or expand it into a full-day 'Art Intensive' depending on your curriculum needs.

Can we choose a specific theme for the mural?

Absolutely! We love it when schools have a specific theme, such as environmental awareness, local Makassar culture, or school values like 'Respect' and 'Teamwork'. Our artists will work with you beforehand to create a design concept that aligns with your educational goals. This makes the workshop not just a fun activity, but a meaningful project that reinforces what the students are learning in class.

What age groups are these workshops suitable for?

We cater to all ages! For younger primary school students, we focus more on simple shapes, stencils, and fun colour mixing. For secondary school pupils and teenagers, we dive deeper into technical skills like 'cutting', 'fading', and complex letter structures. We adjust our teaching style and the complexity of the project to match the motor skills and attention spans of the specific age group we're working with.

Do students need to have prior drawing or painting skills?

Not at all—that's the beauty of graffiti! Our professional artists are expert instructors who can guide any student, regardless of their natural artistic flair, to create something they are proud of. We use techniques like stencilling and guided sketching to ensure everyone achieves a great result. It's often the students who think they 'can't draw' who end up being the most surprised by their own talent!

Step by step

Introduction & History: We kick things off with a high-energy intro to the world of street art. Students learn the difference between 'tagging' and 'murals' and explore the history of this global movement.
Safety & Gear: Every student gets kitted out in protective gear. We explain how to use the spray cans safely and responsibly, focusing on 'can control' and nozzle types.
The Sketching Phase: Before painting, students brainstorm their designs. They'll practice letter forms and characters on paper to plan their masterpiece.
Technique Demo: Our pro artist demonstrates essential skills like creating clean lines, 'dusting' for shadows, and how to blend colours directly on the wall.
First Sprays: Students start by practicing on practice boards to get a feel for the pressure of the spray can. This builds confidence before the main event.
The Final Mural: Working together or individually, the students apply their skills to the final surface. This is where the magic happens and the big picture comes to life!
Details & Highlights: We teach how to add 'highlights' and 'outlines' to make the artwork pop and look truly professional.
Group Review: We finish with a feedback session where students talk about their work, followed by a legendary group photo with the finished art.

Local culture

Makassar is a city that breathes culture, from the historical walls of Fort Rotterdam to the modern energy of Losari Beach. In recent years, the local street art scene has caught fire, with local crews adding splashes of South Sulawesi identity to the urban landscape. We love bringing our workshops here because the students in Makassar have a incredible sense of community and local pride.

Fun Fact: Did you know that some of the oldest cave paintings in the world, dating back over 40,000 years, are located right here in the Maros-Pangkep karst area near Makassar? Creating art on walls is literally in the DNA of this region! 🎨
