Is the workshop safe and clean for students?
Absolutely! We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and masks for every student and teacher. While our spray paint is professional grade, we take every precaution to keep everyone clean. That said, it’s always a good idea to suggest students wear 'work clothes' or older trainers just in case they get a little extra adventurous with their artistic flair!
Can you come to our school or do we travel to you?
We can host the workshop almost anywhere! If your school in Madrid has a large outdoor courtyard or a well-ventilated sports hall, we can bring the party to you. Alternatively, we can help arrange a professional studio space or a legal street art wall elsewhere in the city. We are flexible and can adapt to your school's specific facilities and safety requirements.
How long does a typical school workshop last?
Our school workshops usually last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper safety briefing, a history lesson on street art, some practice on cardboard or wood, and then the final creation of a large-scale mural or individual canvases. We can always adjust the timing to fit into your standard school period blocks.
What age groups are these workshops suitable for?
We work with students of all ages! From primary school kids (usually aged 8+) who love the bright colours, to secondary school students exploring social themes and technical skills. Our graffiti artists are experts at tailoring the complexity of the lesson to the age and skill level of the group, ensuring everyone feels like a pro by the end.
What are the educational benefits of a graffiti workshop?
Graffiti is a brilliant tool for teaching teamwork, confidence, and creative thinking. It’s also a great way to explore urban history and social expression. Students who might struggle with traditional 'desk-bound' art often thrive in this physical, large-scale environment. Plus, it’s a fantastic reward for a hard term or a unique way to kick off a new school year!
What happens if it rains or there is a cancellation?
We’ve got you covered. In the rare case of an artist being unwell, we have a network of backup muralists ready to step in. We also have experience moving workshops to covered outdoor areas or using specific low-odour paints if we need to move indoors due to heavy rain. Your creative day out won't be ruined by a few clouds over Madrid!
