Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti workshop safe for school students?
Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. Our spray paints are low-odour and we always conduct school workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our professional artists are experienced in managing groups of students, ensuring everyone follows safety protocols while having an amazing time expressing their creativity in a controlled environment.
How long does a typical school workshop last?
Our standard school workshops in Viseu typically last between 1.5 and 2 hours. This provides enough time for an introduction to graffiti history, a safety briefing, practising basic techniques, and completing a final collaborative masterpiece. If you have a specific schedule to meet, we can easily adapt the duration to fit into your school's timetable or project week requirements.
Do we come to you, or do you have a studio in Viseu?
We are very flexible! We can bring the workshop directly to your school grounds if there is a suitable outdoor wall or open space. Alternatively, we can help arrange a session at a local creative spot in Viseu. Many schools prefer the convenience of hosting it on-site, as it integrates perfectly into the school day without the need for extra transport logistics.
Do the students need any prior art experience?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from complete beginners to budding young artists. Our instructors break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We focus on the 'fun' and 'educational' aspects of street art, ensuring every student feels proud of what they create, regardless of their prior artistic experience or drawing ability.
What materials are included in the workshop package?
We provide everything needed for a successful street art session! This includes a wide variety of professional spray paint colours, caps (nozzles), protective clothing, masks, gloves, and large canvases or plastic film walls for the students to paint on. You just need to ensure the students wear comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on.
Can the workshop focus on a specific theme or teamwork?
We believe graffiti is a fantastic tool for teamwork. Most school sessions include a collaborative segment where students work together on a large-scale mural. This encourages communication, planning, and shared creative goals. It’s a brilliant way to build class spirit and leave the school with a temporary or permanent piece of art that everyone contributed to.
