Should my child wear special clothing for the summer camp?

Absolutely! We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and masks. However, graffiti is a messy art form, and spray paint is permanent. We strongly recommend that campers wear 'old' clothes and sneakers they don't mind getting a few colorful specs on. It’s all part of the authentic street art experience here in Mechelen!

Is spray painting safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control and provide high-quality FFP2 resonance masks to ensure no fumes are inhaled. All sessions are lead by experienced instructors who begin every workshop with a comprehensive safety briefing. We maintain a small student-to-teacher ratio to keep a close eye on everyone.

Does my child need prior artistic experience?

Not at all! Our summer camps are designed for all skill levels. Whether your child is a natural-born illustrator or has never held a spray can before, our artists will guide them through the basics. We start with simple lines and shapes before moving on to more complex pieces, ensuring everyone feels proud of their work.

What is the age limit for the summer camp participants?

Our graffiti summer camps in Mechelen are generally designed for youth aged 10 to 18. We often group participants by age to ensure the teaching style and complexity of the projects match their developmental stage. For younger creative spirits, we focus more on color and shapes, while teens dive deeper into style and technique.

What happens if it rains during the outdoor workshop?

Mechelen has some great covered spots, and we also have access to indoor facilities or can set up professional pop-up tents. We monitor the weather closely; if the rain is too heavy for an outdoor session, we move under cover so the creative flow never has to stop. The art must go on!

Are all materials included in the price?

We provide everything needed for a full day of creativity! This includes a wide array of professional spray paint colours, caps (nozzles), gloves, masks, protective suits, and the surfaces we paint on. We also provide sketchbooks and markers for the design phase. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and a packed lunch!

Where in Mechelen do the workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible with our locations. We can host the camp at local youth centres, schools, or public 'hall of fame' walls throughout Mechelen. If you are an organisation booking us, we can even bring the entire setup to your specific location, provided there is enough ventilation and space to get creative.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti camp over a traditional sports or music camp? It’s about more than just paint – it’s about finding a voice! Here’s why our Mechelen sessions are the highlight of the summer for so many kids:

Total creative freedom: No grades, no "right" way—just pure expression through bold colours and big designs. 🌟
Builds confidence: Seeing a massive mural you helped create gives a sense of accomplishment like nothing else. 💪
Learn from the pros: Our instructors aren't just teachers; they are active street artists with years of experience. 🎤
Safe & professional: We use top-tier safety gear and high-quality, low-pressure cans for the best results. 🛡️
Social connection: Participants work together on large-scale pieces, fostering teamwork and new friendships. 🤝
All-inclusive: We handle the mess and provide all materials – you just show up and spray! 🏆

Step by step

The meetup: We gather at our Mechelen street art hub, get to know the crew, and set the vibe for the week.
Concept & sketching: Before hitting the walls, we grab markers and paper to brainstorm themes and master the 'tag' and 'throw-up' styles.
Safety first: We suit up in protective gear and learn the essential rules of using spray cans safely and respectfully.
Can control basics: Our pros show you how to hold the can, swap nozzles (caps), and manage pressure for thin lines or fat fills.
The first layer: We head to the canvases or walls to start with the 'fill-in' – bringing those sketches to life with vibrant colours.
Outlining & 3D: This is where the magic happens! We add sharp outlines and 3D effects to make the graffiti pop off the surface.
Details & highlights: We use specialised caps to add shines, bubbles, and those final 'power lines' that define professional street art.
The final reveal: We step back, take some epic photos of the collaborative masterpiece, and celebrate the hard work of the crew!

Good to know

Duration: Full-day sessions from 09:00 to 16:00, or multi-day week camps available.

Local culture

Mechelen is a city that perfectly blends its medieval heritage with a modern, edgy soul. From the towering St. Rumbold's Cathedral to the vibrant life along the Dijle river, there is inspiration around every corner. But look closer at the alleyways around the Mechelen-Nekkerspoel station or the local skate parks, and you'll see a city that embraces the urban arts. Our summer camp taps into this local 'Maneblusser' spirit, encouraging youth to contribute to the city's evolving visual story. 🇧🇪

Fun Fact: Did you know Mechelen has a dedicated "Street Art Mechelen" route? We often take our campers on a mini-tour of these giant murals to see how the professionals do it before we start our own projects! 🕵️‍♂️
