Why choose us in Kano?

Why choose our graffiti workshop for your after-school program in Kano? Because we don't just teach art—we create an unforgettable experience! ✨

  • Boosts real confidence: There is nothing like seeing a child realize they just painted something "cool" to build self-esteem. 🚀
  • Professional artists: Our instructors aren't just teachers; they are active street artists who love sharing their craft. 🎤
  • Zero risk: With our "Pay After" policy, you only pay if the kids have the time of their lives.
  • Screen-free fun: Get them away from the phones and tablets and into something physical and creative.
  • Safety focused: We provide full gear so the only thing that gets colorful is the canvas, not their school uniforms! 🛡️

How it works

  1. Intro and safety brief: We start with a high-energy intro about street art history and a vital safety talk on how to use the gear properly.
  2. Design brainstorming: The students grab paper and markers to sketch out their 'tags' or 'pieces', planning their colors and shapes.
  3. Can control 101: We head to the wall/canvas where kids learn how to hold the can, control the pressure, and swap nozzles for different effects.
  4. Outline practice: Time to make some noise! Students practice drawing their first lines and basic shapes to get the feel of the spray.
  5. Fill-in and 3D: This is where the magic happens. We teach them how to fill their letters evenly and add shadows to make them 'pop'.
  6. Highlighting and details: Using 'skinny caps', the kids add those sharp final touches and highlights that make the artwork look professional.
  7. The grand reveal: Everyone steps back to admire the collective or individual masterpieces—perfect for a group photo!
  8. Clean up: We teach the kids about the importance of leaving the space better than they found it, clearing away caps and cans.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a typical after-school graffiti session last?

Our after-school workshops in Kano usually run for about 2 hours. This gives the children enough time to learn the basic safety rules, practice their lines on the practice wall, and finally complete their own masterpiece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where they stay fully engaged and excited without getting too tired before heading home.

Is it safe for children to use spray cans?

Safety is our biggest priority! We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for every child. Our spray paints are professional grade but used under strict supervision. Our artists create a controlled environment where the kids can express themselves freely without any mess on their clothes or risk to their health. It's all about having fun safely!

Do the kids need to have prior drawing or art skills?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from those who have never held a pencil to budding young Picassos. Our professional artists break down the process into very simple steps. Most kids are actually surprised by how quickly they can create something that looks totally professional. It is all about building confidence and trying something new.

Where in Kano do these workshops usually take place?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop right at your school premises in Kano if there is a suitable outdoor wall or space. If not, we have access to various creative hubs and 'hall of fame' locations across the city where street art is welcomed. We will work with you to find the most convenient spot.

What is the minimum age for the after-school program?

We recommend children be at least 8 to 10 years old to handle the spray cans effectively. This age group has the motor skills and focus needed to follow the safety instructions and get the most out of the creative process. If you have a younger group, just let us know and we can adapt the tools we use.

Are all the art materials included in the price?

We take care of everything! Your booking includes all the premium spray paint, caps, safety gear (masks, gloves, suits), and the surfaces we paint on. We even bring the inspiration! You don't need to shop for a single thing. Just ensure the kids come with their creative energy and a 'can-do' attitude!

Do we have to pay a deposit to book a date?

Unlike many other providers, we don't ask for any money upfront. You only pay after the workshop is successfully completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. We believe in our service so much that we want you to see the smiles on the kids' faces before any payment happens. It's totally risk-free for the school or parents.
