Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?
Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP2 masks to prevent inhalation of fumes, along with nitrile gloves and protective suits to keep school uniforms clean. Our instructors are professional artists who have extensive experience working with children and young adults, ensuring a controlled, respectful, and entirely safe environment throughout the duration of the workshop in Braga.
Do we need to pay in advance for the school workshop?
We are proud to offer a 'No Cure, No Pay' policy. You don't need to pay anything upfront when booking your school workshop in Braga. Payment is only settled after the workshop has been successfully completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. This ensures a risk-free booking process for teachers and school administrators who need to manage tight educational budgets.
Can the workshop take place on our school premises?
Absolutely! We can bring the workshop directly to your school grounds if there is a suitable outdoor wall or if we can set up temporary wooden panels or plastic stretching. If your school doesn't have a usable space, we can arrange for the session to take place at a legal graffiti zone in Braga. We are flexible and will work with you to find the best location.
How long does a typical school session last?
A standard educational graffiti workshop usually lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. This timeframe is perfect for a double school period. However, we can also offer extended half-day projects if you want the students to work on a larger, more detailed mural. We tailor the duration to fit your specific school timetable and learning objectives.
What is the minimum age for participants?
Our workshops are designed for students aged 8 and up. We adapt our teaching style and the complexity of the techniques based on the age group. For younger primary school children, we focus more on shapes and colour, while for secondary school students in Braga, we dive deeper into the history, culture, and technical spray-painting skills.
What materials are included in the workshop price?
We provide everything needed for a successful art session. This includes all premium spray paint cans in a wide variety of colours, caps (nozzles), protective gear, and the 'canvas' (whether that is a wall, boards, or cellophane). Students just need to bring their enthusiasm and wear old clothes and shoes, just in case a little bit of paint finds its way past the suits!
What happens if the instructor is unavailable on the day?
We understand that school schedules can be unpredictable. Because we work with a large team of professional backup artists, we almost never have to cancel a session. If an instructor falls ill, we have another expert ready to step in. This reliability makes us a trusted partner for educational institutions across Portugal who need guaranteed art programming.
