Do the students need any previous drawing or art experience?
No prior artistic skill is needed at all! Our Fukuoka workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists guide students through every step, from basic spray can control to complex layering techniques. We focus on the process and the fun of creation, ensuring every student walks away feeling like a true artist, regardless of their initial talent level.🎨
Is the spray paint safe for school-aged children?
Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone clean and safe. Our spray paints are low-odor and compliant with safety standards. Instructors give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, and we maintain a high teacher-to-student ratio to ensure constant supervision throughout the entire creative process.✨
Where do the workshops take place in Fukuoka?
We are incredibly flexible! We can host the workshop at your school (outdoor areas or well-ventilated halls work best) or at one of our dedicated partner locations in Fukuoka. If you have a specific spot in mind near Ohori Park or the Sawara district, just let us know. We bring all the necessary equipment, including mobile graffiti walls, to you!
How long does a typical school workshop session last?
A standard school workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This includes the introductory history lesson, safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of a large-scale mural or individual canvases. We can easily adjust the timing to fit into your school's specific timetable or block-learning schedule.💪
What is the maximum group size for a school event?
We can accommodate groups of almost any size. For smaller art clubs of 10 students or entire year groups of 100+, we scale our team accordingly. We have a deep roster of backup artists in Japan to ensure that even large-scale events run smoothly without compromising on the individual attention each student deserves.🔥
Can we create a permanent mural on our school grounds?
Absolutely! We love it when schools want to create something permanent. We can work with students to design and paint a mural on a school wall that reflects your institution's values or local Fukuoka culture. Alternatively, we use mobile wooden walls or individual canvases that students can take home as a souvenir of their creative journey.🏆
What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor workshop?
The weather in Fukuoka can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered. If you have an indoor space with good ventilation like a gym or a covered walkway, we can move the workshop there. Because we have local backup artists and flexible equipment, we can often reschedule or adapt the format so the students don't miss out on the fun!
