How it works
- Intro and safety briefing: We start with a high-energy introduction to graffiti culture and a vital safety demo on how to use the equipment properly.
- Sketching the vision: Students grab pencils and paper to sketch their ideas, learning about 'bubbles', 'blocks', and letter structure.
- Can control basics: Our artists demonstrate different spray techniques, showing how distance and speed change the lines on the wall.
- Practical training: Students head to the practice area to get a feel for the spray cans, testing out lines, dots, and fills.
- The big project: The group moves to the main wall or canvases to start the collective masterpiece, applying their new skills at scale.
- Adding the details: Once the 'fill-ins' are done, we teach students how to add 'outlines', 'highlights', and '3D effects' to make the art pop.
- The finishing touch: Every artist gets to 'tag' their work, signing off on their contribution to the collaborative mural.
- Group photo and cleanup: We celebrate the final result with a big group photo before we handle all the site cleanup and packing.

How long does a typical school graffiti workshop last?
For our school workshops in Ostrava, we recommend allowing between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives students enough time to learn the basic techniques, practice their 'tagging' on cardboard or practice walls, and then work together on a final masterpiece. We can easily adjust the duration to fit your specific school timetable or double periods.
Is it safe for students to use spray paint?
Safety is our absolute priority. We provide all students with high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and aprons. Our professional artists are trained to supervise groups safely, and we use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for beginners to control. We also ensure the chosen location has plenty of ventilation or is outdoors to keep everyone breathing easy.
What is the minimum age for participants?
Ideally, students should be at least 10 years old to handle the spray cans effectively. This age range ensures they have the motor skills and the focus needed to follow safety instructions while actually creating something they are proud of. For younger groups, we can adapt the workshop using paint markers or different creative tools upon request.
Do we need to travel to a specific studio?
The best part about our service is that we bring the art to you! We can set up temporary graffiti walls at your school grounds in Ostrava, use existing walls if permitted, or find a legal 'Hall of Fame' nearby. If your school doesn't have a suitable outdoor space, we can help arrange a local creative venue to host the session.
Do the students need any prior art experience?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for complete beginners. Our artists start with the absolute basics, from how to hold the can to mastering different nozzles (caps). We find that even students who claim they 'can't draw' end up creating incredible work once they learn the proper street art techniques. It's all about building confidence through creativity.
What materials are included in the workshop package?
We provide everything needed for a successful creative day! This includes all spray paint (a wide variety of vibrant colours), different types of caps, protective clothing, and the surfaces to paint on. We also bring cleaning supplies and even some upbeat music to get the creative vibes flowing! Your school just needs to provide the eager students.
Can we create a mural based on a specific educational theme?
Yes, we can! We love integrating school values, specific subjects, or community themes into the mural design. Whether it's a project about the environment, local Ostrava history, or school spirit, we work with you beforehand to create a concept that aligns with your educational goals. It's a fantastic way to make a lasting impact on the school environment.
