Do the kids need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Our Lahti summer camp workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Most of our participants have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists break down the process into easy, manageable steps, starting with basic lines and moving on to shading and 'fill-ins.' We focus on building confidence and ensuring everyone walks away with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of. It’s all about having fun and learning something new! 🎨

Is graffiti spray painting safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to all participants in Lahti. We use low-pressure spray paint which is easier to control and produces less 'mist.' Furthermore, our instructors are experienced professionals who provide constant supervision and clear safety briefings before any paint is sprayed. We ensure a controlled, creative, and completely safe environment for every young artist. ✨

What should the participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing 'old' clothes and sturdy shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide full-body protective suits and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a messy business, and paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or trainers! It's best to be prepared so the kids can focus entirely on their creativity without worrying about their outfit. 👟

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

Lahti weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got it covered! If the weather looks bad, we can often move the workshop to a sheltered outdoor area or an indoor location using water-based, low-odour spray paints or specialized markers. We also have backup artists available, so your scheduled session is guaranteed to go ahead regardless of minor logistical hiccups. We’ll always find a way to keep the creativity flowing! ☁️

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Our standard summer camp sessions usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe is perfect for keeping energy levels high while allowing enough time to learn the techniques, plan a design, and execute a full-scale graffiti piece. We find this duration hits the 'sweet spot' for youth engagement, providing a deep-dive experience without any boredom setting in. Group sizes can range from small squads to large camp-wide events. ⏱️

Can the participants take their artwork home?

Yes, they do! If we are working on individual canvases or boards, the participants can definitely take their masterpieces home to show off to family and friends. If we are working on a large communal mural at your Lahti camp site, we make sure to take high-quality photos of the finished work for everyone to keep. It’s a fantastic souvenir of their summer camp experience and their new creative skills. 🏆

Do we need to pay in advance for the booking?

Unlike many other providers, we don't require any payment upfront. You can book your Lahti summer camp activity with complete peace of mind and pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. We believe in the quality of our service and want to ensure you are 100% satisfied with the experience before any money changes hands. It’s just one of the ways we make things easy for camp organisers! 💳

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your youth programme in Lahti? It’s more than just painting; it’s an experience that sticks with them forever. Here is why it’s a camp highlight:

Unleash pure creativity: No "right or wrong"—just freedom of expression in a bold, tactile medium. 🔥
Total inclusivity: You don't need to be a "traditional" artist to be great at graffiti; it appeals to everyone! 🎤
Confidence boost: Seeing a large-scale piece come to life gives kids an incredible sense of achievement. 🏆
Professional vibes: We use the same gear the pros use, making the kids feel like real street artists. ✨
Team building: Our communal mural projects require communication, planning, and shared success. 🤝
Zero stress for organisers: We bring everything, set up, and clean up. You just provide the campers! 💪

Step by step

Intro & safety: We start with a high-energy kick-off! Our artists explain the history of street art and go over the essential safety rules and gear.
Mastering the can: Kids learn the basics of "can control"—how to hold the spray, how to adjust pressure, and how to create different line widths.
Sketching the vision: Every great piece starts with a plan. We guide the group through sketching their ideas on paper before moving to the wall.
Outline & layout: It's time to make a mark! Participants start sketching their designs onto the canvas or wall using light paint colours.
The fill-in: This is where the magic happens! We teach the kids how to apply vibrant colours and blend shades for a professional look.
Cutting & detailing: We show them how to use "fat caps" and "skinny caps" to sharpen outlines and add those crisp, professional details.
The final flourish: From highlights to "bubbles" and 3D effects, we add the finishing touches that make the artwork pop.
Photo op & cleanup: We celebrate the hard work with a group photo session and ensure the site is left tidy and professional.

Good to know

Duration: Flexible sessions ranging from 90 minutes to a full 3-hour masterclass.
Group sizes: We cater to everything from small groups of 10 to massive camp takeovers of 100+ (with multiple artists).
What's included: Professional spray paint, protective overalls, FFP3 masks, gloves, and either canvases or mobile graffiti walls.
Location: We come to your camp site in Lahti or can arrange a central urban location.
Safety: Lead by professional artists with full insurance and a focus on age-appropriate instruction.

Our workshops tap into this local energy, encouraging kids to contribute to the vibrant cultural fabric of the Päijät-Häme region.

Fun Fact: Did you know Lahti was the European Green Capital in 2021? We carry that spirit into our workshops by using eco-conscious practices and ensuring our workshop sites are always left cleaner than we found them! 🌲
