Is the graffiti workshop safe for secondary school students?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority for all Sheffield school workshops. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls for every student. Our professional artists lead a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We use low-odour, high-quality paints and ensure the workspace is well-ventilated, making the environment secure for everyone to focus on their art.

What should students wear to the session?

We recommend that students wear comfortable, older clothes and sturdy shoes. Even though we provide full-body protective overalls and gloves, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or shoes if students get really into their work! It's best to come prepared for a bit of mess so everyone can relax and enjoy the creative process without worrying about their best trainers.

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard secondary school session in Sheffield usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for an introduction to graffiti history, a safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of their masterpiece. We can also adapt the timing to fit your specific school timetable or double-period slots if needed, ensuring a seamless experience for your staff.

Do students need to have any artistic talent before joining?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from those who find art daunting to the next Banksy. We focus on building confidence through simple techniques like 'fading' and 'outlining'. Our artists provide step-by-step guidance, ensuring every student walks away with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of, regardless of their prior artistic experience.

Where in Sheffield do the workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible! We can bring the workshop to your school grounds in Sheffield, using outdoor walls or mobile boards. Alternatively, we can host your group at a local Sheffield street art hotspot to give them the full urban experience. Just let us know your preference when booking, and we will handle all the logistical arrangements to make it happen.

How does this workshop benefit the school curriculum?

Graffiti isn't just about painting; it's about identity, history, and community. Our workshops align perfectly with the Art & Design curriculum but also touch on PSHE topics like respect for public property and expressive communication. It’s an excellent way to re-engage students who might struggle in a traditional classroom setting, offering them a unique, hands-on medium for self-expression.

How do we book a workshop for our school?

Booking is easy and stress-free. You can use our online Cost Calculator for an instant estimate, or simply contact us for a custom quote. One of the best parts is that we don't require any upfront payment—you only pay after the workshop is successfully completed. We also have backup artists available to ensure your event always goes ahead as planned.
