How it works

  1. Intro & inspiration: Our artist kicks things off with a brief history of graffiti and a look at some local Saint Petersburg street art legends.
  2. Design & sketching: Students grab paper and pencils to brainstorm their tags and designs, learning about letter structure and composition.
  3. Safety briefing: We suit everyone up in masks, gloves, and overalls while explaining the 'do's and don'ts' of spray painting.
  4. Can control basics: Before hitting the wall, students practice basic lines, dots, and pressure control on practice boards.
  5. Creating the piece: The real fun starts! Students begin layering colours, filling in their sketches, and watching their art come to life.
  6. Adding the 'pop': Our artists show the group how to add highlights and sharp outlines to make their work look professional.
  7. The Big Reveal: We finish by tidying up the edges and stepping back to admire the collective masterpiece or individual canvases.
  8. Group photo & cleanup: We snap photos of the incredible results and take care of all the cleanup, leaving your school spotless.

Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls for every student. Our spray paints are low-odour and chosen for school environments. Our professional artists are experienced in managing groups of children and teenagers, ensuring everyone follows safety protocols while having an absolute blast. Parents and teachers can rest easy knowing the kids are in expert hands.

Where in Saint Petersburg do the workshops take place?

We are totally flexible! We can host the workshop at your school (outdoor walls, playgrounds, or indoor boards) or at one of our cool local street art spots in Saint Petersburg. If you choose your school grounds, we take care of all the floor and wall protection to ensure the only things being painted are the designated canvases or murals. It’s hassle-free for the teachers!

How long does a typical school session last?

Our school workshops typically range from 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a quick history of street art, a sketching session, and plenty of hands-on spraying. We can easily adjust the timing to fit into your school’s lesson blocks or extracurricular schedule. Just let us know what works best for your timetable and we will make it happen.

What if the students have no artistic experience?

Don't worry, no art skills are required! Our workshops are designed to turn 'I can't draw' into 'Look what I made!' Our artists teach simple techniques like 'fading,' 'outlining,' and 'filling' that allow anyone to create something impressive. It is all about building confidence and trying something new in a supportive, fun environment. Every student will walk away proud of their work.

What is the maximum group size for a school workshop?

We recommend groups of 10 to 30 students per artist to keep things interactive and safe. However, we have a massive pool of backup artists in Saint Petersburg, meaning we can handle entire year groups or even the whole school if needed! We simply bring more professionals to ensure every student gets the attention and guidance they deserve during their creative journey.

Do we need to pay for the workshop upfront?

We don't believe in hidden fees or upfront stress. After you have had an amazing time and the workshop is complete, we handle the payment. This allows schools to ensure they are 100% satisfied with the experience before settling the bill. It is our 'Fun Guaranteed' promise to the educational community of Saint Petersburg—quality art without the administrative headaches.

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

We spray rain or shine! If the weather in Saint Petersburg takes a turn, we have several options. We can move the session indoors using specially ventilated areas or use large plastic sheeting to create a dry outdoor 'gallery.' Alternatively, we can reschedule to a better day. We always have a backup plan so the students don't miss out on their creative fix.
