How it works

Introduction & Safety: We kick things off with a high-energy intro to street art culture and a vital safety briefing on how to use the gear correctly. 🔥
The Art of the Cap: Students learn about different nozzles (caps) and how they change the thickness and flow of the paint.
Practice Lines: Before hitting the main canvas, we spend time practicing basic lines, dots, and fades on practice boards to get a feel for the spray can.
Sketching the Concept: Our artists guide the group through sketching their big ideas, focusing on letter structure and character design.
Filling In: This is where the colour happens! Students learn how to fill large areas smoothly and create vibrant gradients.
Outlining & Highlights: The pros show how to make the art "pop" using crisp outlines and "shines" (white highlights).
Final Details: We add those tiny details—drips, splatters, or backgrounds—that turn a good piece into a masterpiece.
The Big Reveal: A group photo session with the finished works to celebrate everyone's creative success in Salto! 📸
Clean Up: We pack up the gear and ensure the students are ready to head home with their amazing new artwork.

Frequently asked questions

Do the kids need any previous drawing or painting experience?

Absolutely! Our school holiday workshops in Salto are specifically designed for beginners. Most of our participants have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics of safety and nozzle control before moving on to technical skills. We create a supportive, fun environment where every student feels confident enough to express their unique style, regardless of their previous artistic experience.

What safety measures and gear do you provide?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier for younger hands to control. Additionally, our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated spaces in Salto to ensure a healthy environment for all our budding street artists.

What should the students wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing 'art-ready' clothes—things you don't mind getting a stray speck of paint on. While we provide full protective overalls, graffiti can sometimes be a bit messy when the creativity starts flowing! Comfortable closed-toe shoes are also a must. We provide everything else, including the paint, caps, masks, and the canvases or boards that the students will be working on.

How long does a typical holiday workshop last?

Our school holiday programs in Salto typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, a demonstration of professional techniques, practice sessions, and the creation of a final masterpiece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp without the participants getting tired. Larger groups may occasionally require slightly longer sessions.

What is the minimum age for the graffiti workshops?

We generally welcome children from ages 8 and up for our holiday programs. This ensures they have the physical strength to press the spray caps and the ability to follow safety instructions. We often group participants by age so that the teaching style and complexity of the art are perfectly matched to their developmental stage, making sure everyone has a brilliant time.

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

In the rare event of heavy rain in Salto, we have backup plans! We either move the workshop to a covered outdoor area or an indoor space with professional ventilation. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we almost never cancel a session. If the weather looks truly impossible, we'll work with you to reschedule for the next available holiday date.

Can the participants take their artwork home? 🎨

Yes! One of the best parts of our Salto workshops is that students get to take their creations home. Whether we are working on individual canvases or sturdy boards, the kids will have a professional-looking piece of street art to hang on their bedroom wall as a souvenir of their holiday adventure. It's a great way to remember their new skills!
