How it works

  1. Inquiry and planning: Reach out to us with your school's details, group size, and preferred dates in Takoradi. We’ll discuss your goals and choose the perfect workshop format.
  2. Design briefing: We start the day with a short, high-energy intro about graffiti history and the importance of respect in the street art community.
  3. Safety first: Every student gets kitted out with professional masks and gloves. We demonstrate how to use the spray cans safely and effectively.
  4. Mastering the lines: Students hit the practice area to learn 'can control'—how to create thin lines, thick fills, and smooth gradients.
  5. Sketching the concept: Working in teams or individually, students sketch their ideas on paper before moving to the wall or canvas.
  6. The main event: It's time to spray! Our artists provide 1-on-1 tips as students bring their vibrant visions to life on a large scale.
  7. Refining the details: We teach students how to add 'outlines' and 'highlights' to make their graffiti pop and look professional.
  8. The big reveal: We wrap up with a group photo and a 'gallery walk' where students present their work to their peers.

Frequently asked questions

Is the paint safe for secondary school students?

Safety is our number one priority. We use high-quality spray paints and provide all secondary school students with protective gear, including masks and gloves. Our professional artists are trained to supervise groups safely, ensuring everyone follows the guidelines while having a blast. We also choose well-ventilated outdoor locations or large open indoor spaces in Takoradi to ensure a comfortable environment for everyone involved.

Do the students need prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to budding artists. Our Takoradi-based graffiti pros will guide the students through every step, from basic can control to advanced layering techniques. We believe everyone has a 'tag' inside them waiting to get out—we just provide the tools and the confidence to make it happen in a supportive, fun atmosphere.

How long does a typical workshop last?

Typically, our secondary school workshops in Takoradi last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives the students enough time to learn the history of the craft, practice their techniques on 'practice walls,' and then complete a final masterpiece. We can also adjust the timing to fit into your school's specific timetable or event schedule if you have a tighter window.

What is the ideal group size for a school session?

We are very flexible! Whether you have a small art club of 15 students or an entire year group of 100+, we can make it work. For larger groups, we simply bring in more of our professional artists and set up multiple spray stations to ensure every student gets plenty of hands-on time and individual guidance. No one gets left behind in our creative sessions.

What do we need to provide for the workshop?

We’ve got you covered! We provide everything: premium spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective masks, gloves, and the surfaces to paint on. We can set up temporary 'cellophane' walls if your school doesn't have a permanent wall we can use. Students just need to show up in old clothes that they don't mind getting a little paint on!

Can this be integrated into the arts curriculum?z

Absolutely. Graffiti is a fantastic way to teach students about urban history, colour theory, typography, and the difference between vandalism and commissioned street art. Many schools in the Western Region use our workshops to supplement their Art or Social Studies curriculum, providing a practical, high-energy lesson that students will remember for years to come. It’s education disguised as pure fun!
