How it works
- Introduction & History: We start with an engaging talk about the roots of street art and its evolution into a respected art form.
- Safety First: Students are fitted with protective gear and briefed on the correct way to handle spray cans safely and responsibly.
- Nozzle & Pressure Control: A hands-on demonstration teaches students how to control the paint flow and create different line thicknesses.
- Sketching the Concept: Based on your school's chosen theme, students sketch out their ideas on paper before moving to the wall.
- First Strokes: Under the guidance of our pros, students begin applying the base colours and filling in their large-scale designs.
- Shadows & Highlights: We teach the tricks of the trade, showing kids how to add depth, 3D effects, and 'pop' to their letters.
- The Outline: The most satisfying part! Students learn to define their work with crisp outlines that bring the whole mural together.
- The Big Reveal: A final group tour of the artwork where students discuss what they learned and take photos of their collective achievement.
Practical details
Planning is key to a successful school outing. Our sessions are fully mobile—we can come to your school in Antwerp or meet you at a local legal graffiti wall. Each workshop includes professional-grade, low-pressure spray cans that are easier for students to control, and we provide full-body protective suits to keep those school uniforms clean. We cater to groups of all sizes, from small art classes to entire year groups, often splitting larger numbers into rotating sessions. Safety is paramount; we use professional-grade masks and provide clear instructions throughout. No preparation is needed from the school's side other than providing the space and the students!
Pricing
Our educational workshops are priced to be accessible for schools, with costs typically ranging from €25 to €55 per student.
The final price depends on the number of participants, the duration of the session, and whether we are painting on a permanent wall or temporary panels. We offer special rates for multiple sessions or full-day bookings.
No upfront payment required! You only pay after the workshop is finished.

Is the paint safe for students to use?
Safety is our number one priority. We provide every student with high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and professional FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure they don't inhale any fumes. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated legal graffiti zones in Antwerp. Our artists are trained to supervise groups safely, ensuring a fun environment where everyone remains protected while they create their masterpieces.
Can every student participate, even those without artistic skills?
Absolutely! Participation is the heart of what we do. Our workshops are designed to be inclusive, regardless of a student's artistic background or physical ability. We use accessible techniques that allow everyone to contribute to the final artwork. If you have specific accessibility requirements for your school group in Antwerp, just let us know in advance so we can tailor the session to your needs.
Do we need to provide the location at our school?
Ideally, we need a legal graffiti wall or a space where we can set up large plastic sheets or wooden panels. Antwerp has several fantastic legal spots like the Spoor Noord area. If your school doesn't have a suitable outdoor space, don't worry—we can often arrange a professional location nearby or bring mobile 'graffiti walls' that we set up and take down, leaving no mess behind.
What is included in the price of the workshop?
All our school workshops in Antwerp include a professional graffiti artist, high-quality spray paint in a wide range of colours, protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the canvas or wall space. We also handle the full setup and cleanup. You just need to bring the students and plenty of enthusiasm! We take care of the logistical heavy lifting so teachers can relax.
What happens if we need to cancel or change the date?
We understand that school schedules and weather can be unpredictable. We offer a flexible booking policy where you don't have to pay anything upfront. Payment is only settled after the workshop is successfully completed. If the weather in Antwerp looks particularly bad, we can usually reschedule to a different date or move to a covered location to ensure the students still get their creative experience.
How long does a typical school session last?
Our standard school workshops typically last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This timeframe allows enough time for a solid introduction, safety briefing, technique practice, and the creation of a final collaborative mural. However, we can easily adapt the duration to fit into your specific school timetable or double-up sessions for larger year groups across a full school day.
