Frequently asked questions
How long does a typical school workshop last?
Our school workshops in Brasilia usually run between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows students to learn the essential history of street art, practice basic spray can techniques, and complete a collaborative mural. We are flexible and can adapt the timing to fit your school's specific timetable or double-period slots, ensuring a smooth integration into the academic day without rushing the creative process.
Can the workshop be held indoors if it rains?
Absolutely! Creativity shouldn't be limited by the weather. While we love working outside in the Brasilia sunshine, we have special water-based, low-odour spray cans designed specifically for indoor use. These are non-toxic and safe for use in sports halls or large classrooms. Alternatively, we can set up temporary sheltered areas outside to ensure the workshop goes ahead rain or shine.
Is the paint safe for students to use?
Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and overalls to keep school uniforms clean. Our professional artists are experienced in managing student groups and provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. Our water-based paint options are also much safer for younger lungs and the environment.
What happens if the artist is sick or we need to cancel?
We pride ourselves on being reliable. We have a dedicated team of backup artists ready to step in if your primary instructor falls ill. This ensures that your school event is never cancelled at the last minute. Furthermore, our 'pay after' policy means you don't have to deal with complex upfront financial approvals; you only pay once the workshop has been successfully delivered and you are 100% satisfied.
Are the workshops suitable for all age groups?
Street art is a fantastic tool for different ages! For primary schools, we focus on simple shapes, fun colours, and collaborative play. For secondary students in Brasilia, we dive deeper into technique, letter styling, and the historical context of urban art. We tailor the complexity of the project to match the motor skills and maturity of the students involved, making it inclusive for everyone.
What materials do we need to provide?
We provide everything needed for a successful art session. This includes various nozzle sizes (caps) for different effects, a wide range of spray paint colours, protective equipment, and the canvases or surfaces for the mural. Your school just needs to provide the space and the enthusiastic students. We even take care of the setup and the cleanup afterwards, leaving your site as tidy as we found it.
