🦭Get ready for a journey through the wild with AOP at our smash-hit spray paint and stencil workshops at SPARK* York! You’ll learn how to use the wonderful medium of spray paint combined with a series of wildlife stencils ranging from flowers and trees to all different kinds of animals in this jam-packed 45-minute workshop full of techniques that will allow you to create your very own masterpiece! 


🦒No experience is required, just lots of creativity and imagination! Our professional instructors will walk you through each step of the creative process, ensuring you’re having fun, being safe, and learning a new skill.


🦏Classes are designed for both kids and adults to enjoy and we guarantee that even our more experienced hands will find plenty to do as they create their unique work of art.


🦓We will cover basic information such as how a spray can actually works and how to get an even coat of paint onto your canvas. We’ll then go into the process of layering your piece, beginning with using a line breaker to ‘break the canvas’. We’ll then introduce a variety of stencils to create amazing shapes, patterns and textures. For our more advanced participants, we’ll demonstrate and help with drop shadowing, and if needed, we’ll support you with ideas, colour choices, principles of design, and anything else needed to make sure you’ve created a masterpiece that even the most exotic of animals would be jealous of!


🐅We’ve added loads of new nature stencils and colours, allowing your creativity to go wild! 


The Boring Bits…


Full PPE will be provided including gloves, gown, mask and goggles, as well as a safety brief. 


Parents are welcome to accompany their kids without purchasing a ticket (they will not have their own canvas set up to paint) but are also encouraged to purchase a ticket and participate in the workshop alongside their child! 

 

All participants must be aged 7 or older to sign up for this workshop. Although younger children are often good at following instructions, this is a strict policy due to the fact that small fingers typically struggle when operating spray cans, compromising user safety. 


Please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask questions, and we’ll make sure we find the right class for you! chloe.aopprojects@gmail.com

Organized by

We bridge the boundaries between art and engagement by delivering creative workshops and training sessions to the public as a way to teach, inspire, invite curiosity, and ultimately connect and engage with the people around us. We offer a variety of options from spray paint classes to engagement and training sessions for schools, individuals, events and parties, and businesses.

Our workshops offer a unique experience for learning new skills or celebrating exciting events! Workshops can be hosted at various locations including our in-house studio, a central hub (such as SPARK in York) or your own outdoor space. We primarily operate in York and Leeds but can travel to most locations across the UK, and can deliver in most weather conditions. We now offer an odourless spray paint option, allowing us to hold indoor spray painting classes.

Classes are tailored to the needs of the participants - meaning sizes, materials, themes and details can be adjusted to create the best experience possible. Prices vary depending on details. Get in touch today to book a free chat to discuss options and availability. All class instructors are led by professional, experienced artists with enhanced DBS certifications.
