How it works

  1. The creative briefing: Our professional artist arrives and gathers the students for an energetic intro to street art history and safety.
  2. Gear up: Every student is fitted with protective masks, gloves, and aprons to keep things clean and safe.
  3. The first lines: Pupils start on a practice wall or panel to get a feel for the spray can pressure and nozzle control.
  4. Technique training: We teach 'the basics'—shadows, highlights, and how to create those iconic 3D graffiti effects.
  5. Sketching the vision: Students work together or individually to sketch out their design on the final surface using chalk or light paint.
  6. Filling in: The fun part! The kids use a vibrant palette of colours to bring their design to life under expert guidance.
  7. The outline: Our artists help the students add the final sharp outlines that make the artwork truly 'pop'.
  8. Photo op & cleanup: We take a group photo with the masterpiece before handling all the tidy-up, leaving your school spotless.

Frequently asked questions

Is spray painting safe for primary school children?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odour, water-based spray paints whenever possible for younger children, and everyone is provided with high-quality gloves, masks, and aprons. Our professional artists are experts at managing groups of primary-aged children, ensuring that the cans are used correctly and that the environment remains a fun, controlled, and safe space for everyone involved.

Do we need to travel to a studio or do you come to our school?

We are completely mobile! We usually bring the workshop directly to your school grounds in Cochabamba. All we need is an outdoor area or a very well-ventilated space. We use large plastic sheets and protective floor coverings to ensure your school property stays clean and paint-free. If you’d prefer an off-site location, we can also help arrange a local studio or designated street art wall.

Do the pupils need any prior artistic experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our artists start with the basics—how to hold the can, how to control the pressure, and how to create simple shapes. We guide the students through every step of the process. You’ll be amazed at how quickly a child who 'can't draw' finds their confidence once they have a spray can in their hand!

How long does a typical workshop session last?

Our standard primary school sessions usually last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration, practice time, and the creation of the final masterpiece. We can also adapt the schedule to fit into a standard school morning or afternoon block, or even run multiple shorter sessions across different year groups throughout the day.

What materials do we need to provide?

We provide everything! This includes all the spray paint, specialised nozzles (caps), protective gear (aprons, gloves, and masks), and the surfaces to paint on. We usually use large wooden panels or canvases that the school can keep afterwards. All your school needs to provide is an outdoor space and a group of excited students ready to get creative!

What happens to the artwork after the workshop?

The best part of a Graffitifun workshop is that the art lives on! Depending on the format you choose, the children will either have their own individual canvases to take home or the school will have a series of large, vibrant panels. These panels are perfect for brightening up playgrounds, corridors, or school halls, serving as a lasting reminder of the students' collaborative creativity.
