Do the kids need any previous art experience?

Absolutely! No prior artistic skills are needed for our Glasgow summer camps. Our professional artists are expert mentors who break down the process into easy, manageable steps. We focus on building confidence and exploring personal style, so whether your child is a budding Picasso or has never held a spray can, they will walk away with a masterpiece they are proud of. It’s all about the experience!

Is the workshop safe for children?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls for every participant. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designed indoor spaces. Furthermore, our lead artists are fully vetted (PVG checked in Scotland) and experienced in managing youth groups, ensuring a supervised, secure, and supportive environment throughout the entire creative session.

What should my child wear to the summer camp?

We recommend wearing comfortable 'old' clothes and sturdy shoes (no sandals). While we provide full protective body suits and gloves, graffiti paint is designed to be permanent, and a little 'overspray' can sometimes find its way onto sleeves or shoes. Think of it as a day for 'play clothes' that you don't mind getting a bit of Glasgow character on!

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Our standard summer camp workshops in Glasgow typically last between 2 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for the initial safety briefing, sketching designs, practicing techniques on 'practice walls,' and finally completing a large-scale collective mural or individual canvases. We find this timeframe keeps energy levels high and enables kids to stay fully engaged without getting fatigued.

Do the participants get to keep their artwork?

Yes! Depending on the specific camp package, participants usually create their own individual canvas or board to take home. For larger collective murals on walls, we make sure to take high-quality professional photos of the group with their work so they have a permanent digital memory of their contribution to Glasgow's street art scene. It’s a great way to show off their new skills!

What happens if it rains on the day?

We are prepared for the famous Glasgow 'sunny showers'! If we are painting outdoors, we often have access to sheltered spots or gazebos. In the event of heavy rain, we can easily move the workshop to one of our ventilated indoor partner locations or use individual canvases instead of wall murals. The creativity never stops, regardless of what the Scottish clouds are doing!

How do I book a session for my youth group?

Booking is simple! You can use our online Cost Calculator to get an instant estimate, or simply send us a message through our contact form. We don't require upfront payments, which keeps things flexible for you. Once we discuss your group size and preferred dates in Glasgow, we’ll lock in your artist and send over all the final details for your summer camp.

Step by step

Intro & Inspiration: We kick off by exploring the history of street art and checking out some of Glasgow's most famous murals for inspiration. 🎨
Safety First: Every camper gets kitted out with professional masks, gloves, and overalls while we cover the 'Golden Rules' of spray painting.
The Tag Creator: Using our digital techniques or paper sketches, kids learn how to design their own 'tag'—their unique artistic signature.
Can Control: Before hitting the big wall, we practice basic can techniques: lines, dots, fades, and how to handle the pressure. 💨
Outline & Fill: Campers begin their main project, learning how to scale up their sketches and fill in large areas with bold, vibrant colours.
Cutting In: This is where the magic happens! We teach the kids how to 'clean up' their edges and make their art pop against the background. ✨
Detailing: Using specialized caps, we add highlights, 3D effects, and those final 'wow' details that bring the graffiti to life.
The Big Reveal: We finish with a group photo session and a 'gallery walk' where everyone celebrates each other's creative achievements. 🏆

Local culture

Glasgow is arguably the street art capital of Scotland. From the world-renowned "St. Mungo" mural on High Street to the funky characters decorating the walls near the River Clyde, the city is a living gallery. Our Glasgow summer camp sessions tap into this local heritage, often drawing inspiration from the 'Dear Green Place' and the bold, gritty spirit of the Glaswegian people. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Fun Fact: Did you know Glasgow has its very own dedicated 'Mural Trail' that attracts thousands of tourists every year? Many of the artists you see on those walls started just like our campers—learning the basics with a single can of paint!
