Is the graffiti workshop safe for teenagers?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective suits, and gloves to all participants. Our professional instructors start every session with a comprehensive safety briefing, explaining how to handle spray cans properly. We use professional-grade paint in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated studio spaces, ensuring a secure environment where youth can focus entirely on their creativity without any risks.

Do they need to have any artistic talent or experience?

Not at all! Our youth projects are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to budding artists. Our instructors are experts at breaking down complex street art techniques into easy-to-follow steps. We guide the group through the entire process—from sketching basic shapes to mastering 'fading' and 'can control.' Everyone will walk away with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of, regardless of their prior experience.

What materials do we need to provide?

We provide everything! Your booking includes all the professional spray paint cans in a huge variety of colors, high-quality protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the 'canvas' (whether that's a wall, boards, or individual canvases). We also bring sketching materials and inspiration sheets. You just need to make sure the participants wear comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty!

How long does a typical workshop last?

Our youth project workshops typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a cool introduction to street art history, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice time, and the creation of a final collaborative or individual masterpiece. We find this timeframe is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy levels high and engagement focused throughout the entire creative session in Tokyo.

Can you hold the workshop at our specific location in Tokyo?

Yes, we do! While we have several 'graffiti-friendly' spots around Tokyo where we regularly host sessions, we are also mobile. If you have a suitable outdoor space at your youth center, school, or community hub, we can come to you. We'll just need to check if the area is appropriate for spray painting and has enough ventilation. We bring all the floor protection needed to keep the site clean.

What is the maximum group size for a youth project?

We are very flexible! Our youth projects are great for small groups of 10 or large community events with 50+ participants. For larger groups, we simply bring in more of our professional artists to ensure every participant gets enough 1-on-1 guidance and 'can-time.' If you are planning a massive youth festival, just let us know, and we will scale our team to match your needs!

How does the payment process work?

Our 'Pay After' policy means you don't have to worry about upfront costs. You only pay once the workshop is completed and you're satisfied with the experience. We accept bank transfers and various digital payment methods. This makes the administrative process much easier for youth organizations and schools in Japan. Simply request a quote, confirm the date, and prepare for an unforgettable day of street art!

Step by step

Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy intro about the culture of graffiti and street art in Tokyo and beyond.
Safety first: Everyone gets geared up in protective suits and masks while we explain the 'golden rules' of can safety.
The first spray: Participants learn 'can control'—how to create thin lines, thick spots, and smooth color gradients.
Sketching the vision: Using markers and paper, the youth group brainstorms their tags or a collective mural theme.
Outline & fill: The real fun begins! We move to the wall/canvas to sketch the design and start filling it with vibrant colors.
Detailing & highlights: Our artists show how to add '3D effects,' highlights, and clean 'cutting' lines to make the art pop.
The finishing touch: We add final outlines and artistic flourishes to bring the whole project together.
Photo op & cleanup: We capture amazing photos of the finished work for your social media before cleaning up the site perfectly.

Local culture

Tokyo's street art scene is a unique beast—blending the sleek aesthetics of Harajuku with the hidden gems of Shimokitazawa. While Japan has strict rules about public painting, the "authorized" graffiti culture here is exploding with incredible detail and character-driven designs. Our workshops honor this local vibe, teaching youth how to channel their energy into stunning, legal murals that respect the city's meticulous beauty.

Fun Fact: While many think of graffiti as just letters, Tokyo's street art is famous for its 'character culture'—integrating anime-style figures and mascots into urban murals! 🎨
