How it works

  1. Initial consultation: We chat about your school’s goals, the number of students, and your preferred dates in Tokyo.
  2. Design the theme: We pick a theme together, such as "Friendship," "Our Environment," or a school motto to guide the mural design.
  3. Artist arrival: Our professional graffiti artists arrive early at your school to set up the painting zone and safety equipment.
  4. Safety & technique briefing: Students get a fun intro to spray can control, safety rules, and the "dos and don'ts" of street art.
  5. Practice rounds: Kids start with basic lines and shapes on their designated workspace under expert supervision.
  6. Collaborative mural: The students work together to fill in the main design, learning about color blending and layering.
  7. Final touches: Our artists help add the sharp outlines and "pop" effects that make the artwork look professional.
  8. Clean up & gallery walk: We tidy up the space while the students admire their collective masterpiece and take group photos.

Frequently asked questions

Is graffiti art safe for primary school children?

Safety is our number one priority! We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. Our spray paints are low-odor and teacher-approved. Additionally, our instructors are experts at managing large groups of children, ensuring that the cans are used correctly and everyone stays within their designated creative zones. We've hosted hundreds of school sessions across the globe with a perfect safety record. You can relax knowing your students are in professional hands.

Can the workshop take place on our school grounds in Tokyo?

Absolutely! We regularly host workshops for primary schools in areas like Setagaya and Minato. Whether you want us to set up temporary wooden panels in your school playground or use large plastic sheets in the gymnasium, we are fully mobile. We bring all the drop cloths and protection needed to ensure your school grounds remain spotless, leaving only the beautiful artwork on the canvases or designated boards behind.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard primary school workshop usually lasts between 90 minutes and 2 hours. This provides enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time. We can also adapt the schedule to fit your specific school timetable or break periods. If you have multiple classes, we can run back-to-back sessions throughout the school day so everyone gets a turn.

Do the students need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our artist-mentors guide the children through every step, from holding the can correctly to creating basic shapes and shading. The goal is to build confidence and show kids that everyone has a creative spark inside them. By the end of the session, even the most hesitant students are usually surprised by the vibrant masterpiece they've helped create.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We recommend a minimum of 10 students to get the best group energy, but we can accommodate very large year groups as well. For larger groups, we bring in additional professional artists and backup staff to ensure every child gets personal attention and guidance. If you have a particularly large cohort, we can split the group into rotating stations to keep the experience intimate and high-quality for every student.

What materials do we need to provide?

We provide everything! This includes all the colorful spray paint, protective masks, gloves, aprons, and the surfaces to paint on (like canvases or large wooden boards). We also bring professional-grade drop cloths to protect the floor. The only thing we ask the school to provide is an enthusiastic group of kids and an outdoor or well-ventilated space to work in. We handle the setup and the cleanup!

How does the payment process work for schools?

We understand that school budgets and planning take time. That’s why we offer a 'no upfront payment' policy. You can book your date to secure our artists, and the payment is only processed after the workshop has been successfully completed. We want to make the process as stress-free as possible for teachers and administrators, ensuring 100% satisfaction before any Yen leaves your school's bank account.
