What is the age range for the graffiti summer camp?

Our Kota Kinabalu summer camp sessions are designed for different age groups, typically ranging from 8 to 18 years old. We divide participants into age-appropriate teams to ensure that both younger kids and teens feel comfortable, challenged, and inspired. Our professional artists are great at tailoring their teaching style, making sure everyone from primary schoolers to older teenagers can master the spray can safely and creatively!🎨

Is the paint safe for children to use?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. We use low-odour spray paint whenever possible and always conduct workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone even touches a can, ensuring a worry-free environment for parents and a fun experience for the kids.🛡️

Do the kids need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our summer camp program is built for absolute beginners as well as those with a bit of artistic flair. We start with the basics—how to hold the can, pressure control, and simple lines—before moving on to more complex designs. By the end of the session, even those who thought they couldn't draw a stick figure will be amazed at the masterpiece they've helped create.✨

What should participants wear to the workshop?

We suggest wearing old clothes and comfortable trainers that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide full protective gear including overalls, some paint "mist" can occasionally find its way onto shoes or sleeves. It's best to dress for a day of active, messy fun! Also, don't forget to pack some sunscreen and a hat for the Sabah sun. solar protection is key!☀️

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

The duration can vary depending on your specific needs, but our standard summer camp workshops usually last between 2 to 3 hours. This gives the youth enough time to learn the theory, practice their techniques on plastic sheets, and then collaborate on a final large-scale mural or individual canvases. We find this timing is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp.⏱️

What happens if it rains on the day of the camp?

We love Kota Kinabalu, but we know the tropical weather can be unpredictable! If it rains, we have backup plans. We can move the workshop to a covered outdoor area or, if necessary, pivot to an indoor session using water-based paint markers and canvases. We also have a pool of backup artists available, so your event will never be cancelled due to staff illness. We've got you covered!🌧️

Can the kids work together on a large mural?

Absolutely! In fact, most of our summer camp sessions focus on creating a massive collaborative mural. This teaches the youth about teamwork, communication, and how individual styles can come together to create something bigger than the sum of its parts. It’s a fantastic way to build friendships and community pride, as they see their collective vision come to life on a large scale.🤝

Local culture

Kota Kinabalu, the 'Land Below the Wind', is the perfect backdrop for a creative summer camp. The city’s blend of coastal vibes and urban development provides a unique canvas for street art projects. We take inspiration from the incredible natural beauty of Mount Kinabalu and the local marine life, encouraging kids to blend traditional Sabah motifs with modern graffiti styles. The local street art scene in KK has been growing, with vibrant murals popping up around the city centre, proving that urban art is a celebrated part of the community here. 🌴

Fun Fact: Did you know that Kota Kinabalu was formerly known as Jesselton? Just like the city evolved and rebranded, graffiti allows young artists to reinvent themselves and express their identity through their art! 🚀
