Practical details
Our school workshops are built to be flexible and hassle-free. A standard session lasts about 1.5 to 3 hours, but we can lengthen this for full-day art intensives. We cater to groups of all sizes, often working with classes of 15 to 30 students at a time, though we can accommodate more by rotating groups. Safety is our number one priority; we provide all CE-certified respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to ensure no paint gets on school uniforms. 🛡️ Everything is included: the paint, the caps, the boards, and our expert instructors who stay with the group from start to finish. We are fully insured and our artists are experienced in working with various age groups, from primary school kids to secondary school teenagers. ✨

Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti workshop safe for students?
Absolutely! We prioritize safety above all else. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and body suits to keep students clean and safe. Our professional artists are trained to supervise students closely, ensuring that the spray cans are used correctly and responsibly. We also use low-odor paints whenever possible to ensure a comfortable breathing environment for everyone involved in the school workshop.
How long does a typical school session last?
Our school workshops in Kaduna typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction to the history of street art, a safety briefing, some practice runs on cardboard or practice walls, and then the final creation of the main masterpiece. We can also adjust the timing to fit into your specific school timetable or double-period slots.
Do students need to have any artistic talent before joining?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from those who can't draw a straight line to the naturally artistic students. Our instructors guide the kids through basic techniques like 'fats' and 'skinnies' (different line widths), fading, and outlining. By the end of the session, every student will have contributed something they can be proud of, regardless of their prior experience.
Where in Kaduna do the workshops take place?
We can host the workshop right at your school premises! We just need an outdoor space with a wall or we can set up our own mobile plastic 'cellograff' walls between pillars or trees. If your school doesn't have a suitable space, we can help find a local creative spot in Kaduna. We are very flexible and can set up in playgrounds, car parks, or sports fields.
Do we need to provide any materials?
No, you don't need to worry about a thing. Graffitifun provides everything including premium spray paint cans, caps, protective gear, and the 'canvas' (whether it's a wall or wooden boards). We even bring the inspiration! The school just needs to provide the eager students and a bit of space for us to work our magic. We handle the setup and the cleanup afterwards.
What is the maximum group size for a school workshop?
Since our workshops are usually held outdoors or in well-ventilated areas, we can handle quite a few students. We typically work with class sizes of 20-30 for a single session to ensure everyone gets enough individual attention. For larger schools, we can run multiple sessions throughout the day or bring in more artists to manage multiple groups simultaneously. Contact us to discuss your specific school size.
How does the payment process work for schools?
We believe in our service so much that we don't ask for payment until the workshop is over and you are happy with the results. This takes the stress out of the booking process for school administrators. After the session, we will send an invoice that can be settled via bank transfer. This ensures your school budget is only spent when you are 100% satisfied.
