What is the age limit for the summer camp workshop?

Ideally, our graffiti summer camp sessions in Obuasi are designed for youth aged 8 to 18. We group participants by age to ensure the teaching style and complexity of the art projects match their developmental stage. Younger children focus on basic shapes and safety, while teenagers dive into complex layering, 'wildstyle' lettering, and advanced shading techniques. Regardless of age, our professional artists provide constant supervision and encouragement.

Is spray painting safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our top priority! We provide high-quality protective gear, including professional-grade respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective overalls to keep clothes clean. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces in Obuasi. Our instructors are experienced professionals who train all participants on the correct way to handle spray cans and maintain a safe distance from others while painting.

Do the kids need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our summer camp activities are designed for complete beginners as well as budding young artists. Our instructors walk everyone through the basics, from how to hold a can to creating simple lines and shadows. By the end of the session, even those who thought they couldn't draw a stick figure will have created a vibrant piece of street art they can be proud of.

What should participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend that participants wear 'messy clothes' and comfortable trainers. Even though we provide protective overalls, graffiti art can be unpredictable, and a stray splash of paint is always a possibility. It’s best to wear items you don’t mind getting a bit of colour on. Don't forget a hat and some sunscreen, as we'll be making the most of the Obuasi sun!

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

A standard summer camp session in Obuasi typically lasts between 2 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for an introduction to graffiti history, a safety briefing, some practice on plastic film or practice boards, and finally, the creation of their masterpiece. We find this duration keeps energy levels high and focus sharp without the youngsters getting too tired in the heat.

Can the participants keep their artwork?

Absolutely! One of the best parts of our Obuasi summer camps is that participants get to take their creativity home. Usually, we work on high-quality canvases or specially prepared boards. Once the paint is dry, these make incredible souvenirs and unique wall art for their bedrooms. It’s a tangible reminder of their creative achievements during the summer holidays.

How does the payment and booking process work?

At Graffitifun, we believe in flexibility. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your Obuasi summer camp slot. We offer 'pay after the workshop' terms to ensure you are 100% satisfied with the experience we've provided. We also have backup artists available, so you never have to worry about a session being cancelled last minute. Your peace of mind is important to us!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti-themed summer camp in the Golden City? It’s more than just painting walls; it’s about character building and finding a voice! Here’s why our Obuasi workshops are the talk of the town:

Confidence Boost: There's nothing quite like the feeling of finishing a massive, colourful piece of art to make a young person feel unstoppable! 🏆
Safe & Professional: We use high-quality safety gear and the best artists in the business, so parents can relax. ✨
Uniquely Obuasi: We blend local Ghanaian flair with urban street style for a one-of-a-kind cultural experience. 🇬🇭
Teamwork in Action: Our mural projects encourage kids to share ideas, space, and paint cans, building lifelong social skills. 🤝
Inclusive Environment: Whether they are already 'artsy' or have never held a brush, everyone succeeds at our camp. 🎉
Worry-Free Booking: No deposit needed and a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If the kids don't have fun, we haven't done our job! 🔥

Step by step

The Arrival & Meet-up: We kick things off with a high-energy introduction. Our pro artists meet the group at our Obuasi location, handing out name tags and getting everyone hyped for a day of creativity.
Street Art History 101: Before touching a can, we share the cool history of graffiti. It’s not just paint; it’s a culture! We talk about tags, pieces, and how street art has evolved across the globe.
Safety & Gear Up: Safety first! Every participant gets fitted with a mask, gloves, and protective clothing. We explain the 'rules of the yard' to ensure everyone stays safe and clean.
Mastering the Can: This is where the magic starts. We teach the basics: how to control pressure, create thin lines, fill large areas, and the secret to those perfect 'fades.'
Sketching the Vision: Participants grab markers and paper to plan their piece. Whether it's their name or a wild character, our artists help them refine their ideas before moving to the wall or canvas.
Outline & Fill: Now for the real deal! The kids start spraying their outlines under the watchful eye of our pros, followed by 'filling in' with a burst of bold colours.
The Final Flourish: We teach how to add highlights and shadows to make the artwork 'pop.' This is the stage where a good piece becomes an absolute masterpiece!
Photo Op & Cleanup: Once the 'caps' are off, we take group photos with the finished artwork. We handle all the cleanup, leaving only the art and great memories behind.

Local culture

Obuasi is known worldwide for its rich gold mining heritage, but there's a shimmering creative energy beneath the surface too! In a city where the landscape is defined by the rolling hills and deep tunnels, we bring a splash of neon and chrome to the mix. Our workshops celebrate the hardworking spirit of the Ashanti region by teaching kids that with a bit of practice and 'gold-standard' focus, they can create something truly spectacular.

Fun Fact: Did you know that the name 'Obuasi' translates roughly to 'under the rock' or 'stone' in Twi? We love the irony because we're here to help kids leave their mark *on* the surface for everyone to see!

While the city is famous for what's underground, we’re focusing on making the streets of Obuasi a bit more vibrant. Our summer camp activities often take inspiration from local Adinkra symbols, blending traditional Ghanaian culture with modern urban art styles. It's a unique way for the local youth to connect with their roots while learning a globally recognised art form. 🎨
