How it works

  2. Sketching basics: Students grab a pen and paper to plan their tags and practice their letter shapes.
  3. Can control: Our artists demonstrate how to hold and use the spray can to get different effects.
  4. Line work: The kids move to the wall or canvas to practice basic lines and circular movements.
  5. Filling in: We teach the best techniques for filling in large areas of colour without drips.
  6. Adding flare: Students learn how to add highlights, shadows, and cool effects to make their work pop.
  7. Final outlines: A clean outline is the key to great graffiti, and we show them exactly how to nail it.
  8. The big reveal: Everyone steps back to admire the collective masterpiece and snap some photos.
  9. Clean up: We pack away the gear, leaving the space exactly as we found it, but with more art!

Frequently asked questions

Are the after school workshops safe for children?

Every workshop is led by professional graffiti artists who understand how to engage with younger groups. We use high quality, low pressure spray cans that are easier for smaller hands to control. We also provide mandatory safety gear, including protective masks and gloves. Our staff are trained to manage group dynamics, ensuring every child stays focused, safe, and has an absolute blast while making art.

Will the kids get paint on their clothes?

Absolutely not! We provide full protective gear, including high grade overalls, masks, and gloves. While we always recommend that kids wear 'messy' clothes just in case, our goal is to keep them clean while they get creative. We take safety and cleanliness seriously so you do not have to worry about paint ending up where it shouldn't be.

How long does a typical after school session last?

Standard sessions usually run for about 90 minutes to 2 hours. This provides the perfect balance of learning techniques and having enough time to complete a final masterpiece. We can also adapt the schedule to fit your specific school timetable or after school club requirements. Just let us know what works best for your schedule and we will make it happen.

Do the students need any previous art experience?

The beauty of graffiti is that it is for everyone! No prior drawing or painting experience is necessary. Our artists guide the group through every single step, from basic line work to advanced shading. We find that even those who think they are not 'artistic' walk away feeling like total rockstars after seeing what they can create on a wall.

Where do the workshops usually take place?

We are flexible! We can host the workshop at your school if you have a suitable outdoor or well ventilated indoor space. Alternatively, we can help arrange a professional studio or a legal street art location in Mexico City. Our team brings all the necessary equipment, including boards or canvases, so we can set up almost anywhere with ease.

What is the maximum group size for a workshop?

We are experts at managing various group sizes. Whether you have a small club of 10 students or a larger group of 30, we have the staff and resources to keep everyone engaged. For very large groups, we simply bring in more of our professional artists to ensure every student gets plenty of one on one guidance and support.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything! This includes premium spray cans in a huge range of colours, protective masks, gloves, overalls, and the surfaces to paint on. You do not need to provide anything other than a space to work and an enthusiastic group of kids. We handle the setup and the cleanup so the experience is stress free for you.
