Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?
Absolutely! Safety is our top priority in Verona. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and overalls. Our professional instructors are experts at managing school groups and ensuring that everyone uses the spray cans correctly and safely. We only use high-quality paint in well-ventilated outdoor areas or suitable indoor spaces to make sure the environment is perfect for students to focus on being creative.
How long does a typical workshop last?
A standard school workshop in Verona usually lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours. This timeframe is perfect as it allows enough time for an introduction to street art history, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time for the students. If you have specific scheduling needs or want a full-day project to create a large-scale mural on school grounds, we can definitely customise the duration for you!
What is the minimum age for students to participate?
We usually recommend a minimum age of 10 or 12 for our spray-painting workshops, as it requires a bit of hand strength and coordination. However, we can adapt our sessions for younger primary school children using alternative materials like paint markers or stencils. If you are unsure if your group is the right age, just give us a shout and we can discuss the best creative approach for your specific class.
Do students need prior artistic experience?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels. Our professional street artists start with the basics, teaching students how to hold a can, control the pressure, and create simple shapes. We find that even students who don't consider themselves "artistic" often thrive in this medium because it's so different from traditional classroom art. It's all about expression, experimentation, and having a blast with your classmates.
Where in Verona do the workshops take place?
We are very flexible! We can host the workshop at various outdoor legal spray sites around Verona, or we can often come directly to your school if you have a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated hall. If you want to leave a permanent mark, we can also paint on large canvases or boards that the school can keep and display in the hallways later. We'll handle the logistics to make it easy for you.
What should the students wear to the workshop?
We recommend that students wear old clothes and shoes that they don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a messy business when the creativity starts flowing! It's better to be safe than sorry, so leave the designer trainers at home and come ready to get stuck into the art process without worrying about a few stray drips.
How does the booking and payment process work?
No upfront payment is required when you book! We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you can pay after the session has been completed. This makes the administrative process much easier for schools and teachers. Simply get in touch for a quote, confirm your date, and we'll take care of the rest. We also have backup artists available to ensure your event always goes ahead as planned.
