Frequently asked questions

How long does a typical after school session last?

Our after school workshops in Accra generally last between 90 minutes and 2 hours. This provides the perfect balance for students to learn the history of street art, practice their spraying technique, and complete a final piece without feeling rushed. We can also adapt the timing to fit specific school schedules or transport arrangements if needed.

Is the spray paint safe for children to use?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high quality respiratory masks and gloves for every student. Our workshops are held in well ventilated outdoor areas or large halls. Additionally, we use professional grade low pressure spray cans which are much easier for younger artists to control, ensuring a safe and manageable environment for everyone involved.

Does this workshop encourage illegal graffiti?

Absolutely not. We focus on the artistic and positive side of street art. Our mentors teach students about the importance of legal spaces and community murals. We emphasize that graffiti is a tool for self expression and community beautification, and we strictly discourage any form of illegal tagging or vandalism through our educational curriculum.

What should the students wear to the workshop?

Students should wear comfortable clothing that they do not mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide protective gear, accidents happen and some paint might end up on shoes or trousers. We suggest old trainers and casual wear. We do provide light overalls or aprons to help keep school uniforms or personal clothes as clean as possible.

Where do the workshops take place?

We can host workshops directly at your school premises in Accra or at one of our dedicated creative partner spaces. If held at school, we just need an open outdoor area or a large, ventilated indoor space. We bring all the boards, plastic sheeting, and materials, so you do not have to worry about the cleanup.

Do students need to have prior drawing skills?

No previous artistic talent is required. Our workshops are designed to be inclusive and encouraging for all skill levels. Our professional artists guide students through every step, from basic lines to complex filling techniques. You will be amazed at what students can create in just one afternoon once they learn the basic secrets of the craft.
