How it works

  1. Introduction & culture: We start with a brief, high-energy talk about the history of graffiti, from New York roots to Rome's local scene.
  2. Safety briefing: Students gear up in protective suits and masks while learning the essential 'do's and don'ts' of spray painting.
  3. Mastering the can: We teach the basics, including how to control pressure, create thin lines, and fill large areas smoothly.
  4. Sketching the design: Under our artists' guidance, students sketch their ideas onto the wall or canvas using light colours.
  5. Adding colour: The fun part! Students work together to fill in the designs, learning about colour theory and blending.
  6. Outlining & highlights: We show the kids how to make their art pop using sharp outlines and 'shines' for a 3D effect.
  7. The grand reveal: We step back to admire the collective mural. It’s a great moment for a group photo with the finished masterpiece!
  8. Cleanup & reflection: We wrap up by tidying the area and discussing what the students learned about teamwork and creativity.

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum age for students to participate?

Our school workshops are suitable for students aged 8 and up. We tailor the complexity of the art and the technical instruction to match the age group. For younger primary school students, we focus more on colour and simple shapes, while secondary school students can dive deeper into complex lettering, shading, and the history of the subculture. Our instructors are experts at engaging all levels.

Is spraying paint safe for school-aged children?

Safety is our priority. We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and specialised masks to ensure no one inhales fumes or gets paint on their clothes. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or legal spray zones in Rome. Furthermore, our professional artists are trained to supervise large groups, ensuring a disciplined yet fun environment for everyone involved.

Do students need to have prior artistic talent?

Not at all! You don't need any prior drawing skills to enjoy our graffiti workshop. We teach the 'alphabet' of street art from scratch. Our artists guide students through every step, from holding the can correctly to creating 3D effects. We find that students who don't usually enjoy traditional art classes often thrive in this high-energy, physical medium.

Can the workshop take place on school grounds?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop at a legal graffiti wall in Rome to give students an authentic experience. Alternatively, if your school has a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated hall, we can bring the workshop to you using large canvases or mobile wooden panels. We’ll help you choose the best location during the booking process.

How long does a typical school workshop last?

A standard educational workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for a brief history of the culture, a safety demonstration, practice sessions, and the creation of a final masterpiece. We can also adapt the schedule to fit into a standard school day or break it into multiple sessions for different classes.

Can we choose a specific theme for the mural?

Yes, we encourage it! Many schools choose a specific theme, such as 'Sustainability', 'Unity', or 'School Values'. Our artists will work with the kids to design a mural that reflects these ideas. It’s a fantastic way to combine creative expression with the school curriculum or a specific educational project you are currently running.

What happens if we need to cancel or if the artist is sick?

We offer a 'Fun Guarantee' and a no-upfront-payment policy. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. Additionally, we always have backup artists on standby, so your school trip or event will never be cancelled due to staff illness. We aim for 100% satisfaction for both teachers and students.
