Do the kids need any previous art experience?

Absolutely! No prior artistic skills are needed. Our professional instructors are experts at breaking down complex graffiti techniques into simple, manageable steps. We focus on building confidence and encouraging individual expression, ensuring every child feels like a true artist by the end of the week. Most participants start as total beginners and leave with amazing portfolios.

Is the spray paint safe for children to use?

Safety is our top priority. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for kids to handle, and we provide high-quality protective gear including gloves, masks, and overalls. All our sessions take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designated legal walls in Bologna. Our artists are experienced in working with youth and maintain a supervised, secure environment at all times.

What should my child bring to the graffiti summer camp?

Participants should wear comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on—even though we provide protective suits, art can be messy! We also recommend closed-toe shoes for safety. Everything else, including high-quality spray cans, caps, sketching materials, masks, and safety gear, is fully included in the camp price. We handle all the logistics so you don't have to.

What is the age range for the workshop participants?

We generally recommend our graffiti summer camp for children and teenagers aged 8 to 18. We often group participants by age to ensure the teaching style and complexity of the projects are appropriate for their developmental stage. For younger kids, we focus more on character design and colour, while teens might dive deeper into complex lettering and historical styles.

How does the payment and cancellation process work?

We have a flexible, no-upfront-payment policy. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed, which shows our commitment to 100% satisfaction. We accept bank transfers and various digital payment methods. If your plans change, we appreciate early notice, but we don't charge hefty cancellation fees. Our goal is to make the booking process as stress-free as possible for parents.

How long does a typical daily session last?

Standard sessions last between 2 to 3 hours daily during the camp week. This timeframe is perfect for maintaining focus and energy without it becoming tiring. We balance the time between theoretical sketching, colour theory, and the actual physical painting. This structure ensures that participants get a well-rounded experience while spending plenty of time actually using the spray cans.

Step by step

Intro to the culture: We start with a fun look at the history of street art and how it transformed from New York alleyways to Bologna's vibrant arcades.
Safety briefing: Every participant learns how to use the equipment safely, including proper mask fitting and nozzle control.
Sketching the vision: Kids head to the drawing boards to plan their designs on paper, learning about "the tag" and "the throw-up."
Colour theory: We teach how to choose contrasting colours and how to use blending techniques to make pieces pop.
First lines: Under the guidance of our pros, students take to the wall to outline their primary shapes and letters.
Fill-ins and fades: This is the messy, fun part! Participants learn how to fill their designs with gradients and textures.
Outlining and details: We use "fat" and "skinny" caps to add those crisp borders and highlights that make the art look professional.
Final masterpiece: The group works together or individually to complete a large-scale mural that they can be proud of.
Photo session: We document the hard work with professional-looking photos of the kids with their finished street art.

Good to know

Our camps are designed to be as inclusive and professional as possible. Each daily session typically lasts 3 hours, providing the perfect balance of instruction and hands-on practice. We keep our group sizes small—usually between 10 and 15 participants per artist—to ensure everyone gets individual attention. All materials are included: premium spray paint, protective overalls, gloves, and high-quality respiratory masks. Safety is our number one priority, and all workshops are led by vetted, professional artists with extensive experience in youth education. We also have a backup artist system in place, so your scheduled camp will never be cancelled due to staff illness.

Local culture

Bologna is a city that breathes art, from the medieval frescoes in its cathedrals to the modern masterpieces found in the Porto-Saragozza district. Our summer camp draws inspiration from the local "Bolognese" style—a mix of underground grit and sophisticated design. We often take our campers to see the iconic murals near the university district or the via Indipendenza backstreets to understand how art interacts with the city's famous red-brick architecture. By participating in our camp, your child isn't just learning a hobby; they are joining a long-standing tradition of creative dialogue in one of Italy's most culturally progressive cities. We celebrate the local street art heroes while teaching the next generation to respect the heritage of our beautiful city.
