How it works

  1. Intro and safety briefing: We kick things off with a quick chat about the history of graffiti and a very important run-through of our safety rules and how to use the gear.
  2. Mastering the nozzle: Students learn how to hold the can, control pressure, and create different line widths by adjusting their distance from the wall.
  3. Sketching the vision: Before we spray, we brainstorm ideas and sketch out designs on paper to plan the flow of the letters and colors.
  4. First strokes: Time to hit the wall! Students start with the "fill-in," applying their chosen base colors to their designs using broad movements.
  5. Defining the edges: We teach the trick of "outlining" to make the logos and letters really stand out against the background.
  6. Adding the "pop": This is where we add highlights, 3D shadows, and "force fields" around the art to give it that authentic street art depth.
  7. The finishing touches: Students add stars, drips, or tags to personalize their work and make it truly unique.
  8. Group photo and cleanup: We wrap up by taking photos of the amazing masterpieces and ensuring all materials are packed away safely.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is the graffiti workshop safe for children?

    Safety is our number one priority in Lagos. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP3 face masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep clothes clean. Our instructors are professional artists who manage the group closely, ensuring everyone uses the spray cans correctly. We choose well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor locations to ensure a safe and breathable environment for all the kids throughout the session.

    Do students need prior art experience?

    Not at all! Our after-school program is designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a straight line to budding young Rembrandts. We start with the absolute basics of can control and letter structure. Our friendly instructors provide step-by-step guidance, helping every student build confidence and find their own unique style. It’s all about the experience and having fun with colors, not being a perfect artist.

    How long does a typical session last?

    A standard after-school graffiti experience in Lagos typically lasts between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This gives the students enough time to learn the theory, practice their strokes, and complete a final masterpiece. We can also adapt the timing to fit your school's specific extracurricular schedule. If you need a shorter "taster" session or a more intensive longer workshop, we are happy to accommodate your needs.

    What materials are included in the price?

    We bring everything needed for the ultimate street art experience! The price includes professional-grade spray paint in a wide variety of vibrant colors, protective gear (suits, masks, and gloves), and the "canvas" (which might be a large cellophane wall or individual boards). You don't need to shop for supplies; just show up in comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little dusty, and we handle the rest.

    Do we need to pay in advance?

    We believe in the quality of our service, which is why we don't require upfront payments for bookings in Lagos. You can secure your date and finalize the details with us first. Payment is only settled after the workshop is successfully completed. This gives schools and parents peace of mind, knowing that we are fully committed to delivering a fantastic and professional street art experience for the kids.

    What is the minimum or maximum group size?

    While we usually need at least 5-10 participants to make the workshop vibe really pop, we can cater to very large groups as well. For bigger after-school clubs or multi-class events, we simply bring in more professional artists to maintain a good student-to-teacher ratio. This ensures every child gets personal attention and learns the techniques properly. Just let us know your expected numbers when you reach out!
