Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and overalls to keep clothes clean. Our professional artists are trained to supervise school groups, ensuring that every student uses the spray cans correctly and safely. We only use professional-grade paint in well-ventilated outdoor areas or suitable indoor spaces to ensure a healthy environment for everyone involved.

How long does a typical school workshop last?

A standard school workshop in Porto usually lasts between 90 minutes and 2 hours. This provides enough time for a brief history of street art, a safety demonstration, practicing basic techniques, and completing a final masterpiece. If you have a specific school schedule to stick to, we can easily adapt the duration to fit your morning or afternoon lesson blocks perfectly. Just let us know your timetable!

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We are very flexible! We can host workshops for small art classes of 15 students or large year groups of over 100. For larger groups, we bring in additional professional artists and set up multiple spray stations to ensure every student gets plenty of hands-on time with the cans. No one is left standing around; everyone gets to be an active part of the creative process.

Do we need to travel to a studio, or can you come to our school?

We can come to your school! If you have a suitable outdoor wall, a playground area, or even a well-ventilated sports hall, we can set up mobile plastic walls to paint on. Alternatively, we can arrange for your group to meet us at a cool local spot in Porto. Bringing the workshop to your campus is often the most convenient and cost-effective option for schools.

Do the students need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels. Our artists start with the absolute basics—how to hold the can, how to control the pressure, and how to create clean lines. You will be amazed at how quickly students who think they 'can't draw' produce incredible, vibrant work. It is all about building confidence and having fun with a new medium.

What equipment do we need to provide?

We provide everything! The cost includes professional spray paint in a huge range of colours, high-quality caps (nozzles), protective clothing, masks, gloves, and the surfaces we paint on (whether that is large plastic film walls or individual canvases). We also bring sketches and inspiration sheets to help students get started. Your school just needs to provide the eager students and a bit of space!

Can the workshop be linked to a specific educational theme?

Yes! Graffiti is a fantastic way to explore themes like local history, environment, or teamwork. Many schools in Porto ask us to focus on a specific message or school value. We can guide the students to design a mural that reflects your school's identity or a specific curriculum topic. It makes the workshop even more meaningful when there is a clear message behind the art.
