Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?
Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for every student. Our professional artists are trained to supervise groups closely, ensuring the spray cans are used correctly and responsibly. We only use pro-grade materials in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large indoor spaces to keep the environment safe and enjoyable for everyone involved.
How long does a typical school session last?
Our workshops usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. For schools in Surabaya, we can easily adapt the session to fit your specific timetable or double-period slots. We find that 2 hours is the 'sweet spot'—it gives students enough time to learn the basic techniques, practice their tags, and complete a final masterpiece without losing focus. We work with you to make the schedule perfect.
Do we need to travel to a studio, or do you come to our school?
We bring the art to you! Whether it's the school playground, a sports field, or a large gymnasium, our mobile team can set up almost anywhere in Surabaya. We use temporary high-quality plastic walls or large canvases, so we don't leave any permanent marks on your school property (unless you actually want us to paint a permanent mural, of course!). We handle all the setup and cleanup.
Do students need previous artistic experience?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our artists are expert teachers who break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We guide the students from holding the can correctly to creating complex shapes. By the end of the session, even the students who claim they 'can't draw a stick figure' are usually amazed by what they've created.
What is the maximum group size you can handle?
We recommend groups of at least 10-15 students to keep the energy high, but we can accommodate very large year groups too. Because we have a large network of backup artists, we can scale up to handle hundreds of students in a single day by rotating groups or running parallel sessions. No matter the size of your class, we ensure every student gets individual attention.
What are the educational benefits of a graffiti workshop?
Graffiti is a fantastic tool for education! It encourages teamwork, boosts self-esteem, and teaches students about urban culture and legal art versus illegal vandalism. We can even theme the workshop around school values, specific curriculum subjects, or social causes. It’s a physical, hands-on activity that gets students away from screens and into a constructive, creative mindset. It's art with an edge!
What happens if the weather is bad or an artist is sick?
Don't worry, we've got you covered! Since we have a professional team of backup artists ready to go, we never cancel due to artist illness. If the weather in Surabaya gets a bit too 'tropical' (heavy rain), we can usually move the session under a porch, into a hall, or reschedule to a time that works for you. Your booking is safe with us!
