Do the children need any previous art experience?

Absolutely! No prior artistic experience is needed for our Newcastle summer camp workshops. Our professional artists are experts at teaching the basics, from how to hold a spray can to creating complex shadows. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before they arrive. We focus on building confidence and making sure everyone has a blast while learning a new skill in a supportive, fun environment.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for kids and teenagers?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. Our instructors are highly experienced in managing group dynamics and ensuring spray cans are used responsibly. The paint we use is professional-grade but handled under strict supervision. We also ensure the workshop area is well-ventilated, making the entire experience safe, professional, and worry-free for parents.

What should participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable 'old' clothes and sturdy trainers. While we provide full protective gear including overalls and gloves, graffiti paint is permanent once it dries, and there is always a small chance of a stray splash. It is best to avoid wearing brand-new designer outfits or expensive suede shoes. In the spirit of the Northeast weather, if we are outdoors, a warm layer underneath the overalls is always a smart move!

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Our standard summer camp sessions usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp. During this time, we cover everything from safety briefings and sketching to the final spray-painting process. The duration can be adjusted slightly based on your specific camp schedule or the age of the participants to ensure everyone gets the most out of it.

Can you come to our specific summer camp location?

We are incredibly flexible! We can host the summer camp workshop at your own location in Newcastle or at one of our pre-approved street art spots across the city. Whether you have a school playground, a sports field, or a community hall, we can bring the equipment to you. If you don’t have a venue, just let us know, and we will help find the perfect Newcastle location for your group.

Do the participants get to keep their artwork?

A huge part of the fun is taking home a masterpiece! Each participant will create their own artwork on a high-quality canvas or board. Once the paint is dry, they can take it home to hang on their bedroom wall as a permanent souvenir of their summer at camp. It is a fantastic way for them to show off their new skills to family and friends.

How do I book and when do I need to pay?

No upfront deposit is required to secure your date! We believe in the quality of our workshops and offer a 100% satisfaction focus. You only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. We also have backup artists on standby to ensure that your event goes ahead no matter what. Simply request a quote, and once details are confirmed, your Newcastle street art experience is locked in!

Safety first: Everyone gets kitted out in protective masks, gloves, and overalls. Safety is our top priority!
Sketching the vision: Participants grab paper and pens to brainstorm their designs and 'tags' before hitting the canvas.
Can control basics: We teach the 'nozzle' techniques—how to make thin lines, fat drips, and smooth gradients.
First layers: The spraying begins! Participants apply their background colours and basic shapes to the boards.
Adding the details: Under our artists' guidance, kids add 3D effects, highlights, and outlines to make their art pop.
The finishing touch: Participants add their personal tags or 'signatures' to claim their unique masterpiece.
Group photo & cleanup: We snap photos of the incredible work before packing up and leaving the site spotless.

Local culture

Newcastle has a gritty, creative soul that makes it the perfect backdrop for a graffiti revolution. From the hidden gems in Ouseburn to the iconic legal walls that celebrate the city's industrial heritage, the 'Toon' is alive with urban art. Our workshops tap into this local energy, encouraging young Geordies to contribute to the city's evolving cultural landscape. We love working near the vibrant Quayside or the creative hubs of Shieldfield, bringing that authentic street art vibe to local summer camps.

Fun Fact: Did you know Newcastle is home to some incredible large-scale murals by world-renowned artists? The city's 'street art trail' is constantly growing, making it one of the most exciting hubs for urban creativity in the North of England! 🏆
