Is spray painting safe for kids and teenagers?

The safety of our campers is our top priority! We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits to ensure no one goes home with paint on their clothes. Our instructors are professional artists who are trained in site safety and group management. We also use low-odour professional spray paint designed for artistic use, making the environment much more comfortable for young creators in Palmerston North.

Do participants need previous art experience?

Not at all! Our graffiti summer camp is designed for all skill levels. Whether your child is a budding Picasso 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 techniques. Every participant will walk away with a piece of art they are proud of and a massive boost in creative confidence.

What should my child wear to the workshop?

While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti is a messy business! We highly recommend that participants wear old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a few speckles of paint on. Sometimes the enthusiasm of a summer camp leads to a bit of 'extra' colour where it wasn't intended! Sturdy, closed-toe shoes are a must for safety while working on-site.

What happens if it rains during the summer camp?

The Manawatū weather can be unpredictable, but the fun doesn't stop. If we have a bit of 'liquid sunshine,' we have access to covered outdoor areas or indoor venues where we use specialized water-based paint pens and large canvases. We always plan ahead to ensure that the creative energy keeps flowing regardless of what the Palmerston North sky is doing. No session is ever ruined by rain!

Are all materials included in the price?

We provide everything! Your booking includes professional-grade spray cans in a huge range of vibrant colours, caps (nozzles), protective gear, and the surfaces we paint on—whether that’s a communal mural wall or individual canvases they can take home. You just need to bring a packed lunch, a water bottle, and plenty of energy. We take care of all the messy logistics so you can focus on the art.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

In Palmerston North, our summer camp sessions typically run for about 2 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for a safety briefing, technique practice, and the completion of a final masterpiece. For larger school holiday programmes, we can also offer multi-day sessions where kids get to dive deeper into street art history and more advanced 'wildstyle' lettering techniques. It’s a fast-paced, high-energy experience!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your youth summer programme? It’s more than just painting; it’s about building confidence, learning a new medium, and having a blast with mates. Here’s why our Palmerston North sessions are the talk of the town:

Boost Creativity: Street art encourages out-of-the-box thinking and large-scale creative problem-solving. 💡
No Stress Booking: No upfront payment is required! You only pay after the workshop is complete.
Pro Mentors: Learn directly from active graffiti artists who are passionate about teaching the next generation.
Interactive Tools: Use our Tag Creator or take our Workshop Quiz online to get the vibes started before we even meet! 🎤
Guaranteed Fun: We focus 100% on satisfaction. If the kids aren't smiling, we haven't done our job.
All-Weather Ready: We have indoor and outdoor options to ensure the Palmy rain never stops the play! 🌦️

Step by step

The warm-up: We start with a high-energy intro where campers learn about the history of street art and the importance of 'the sketch.'
Gear up: Safety first! Everyone gets fitted with their protective masks and gloves so they’re ready to handle the paint professionally.
Can control: Our artists demonstrate how to hold the spray can, how to control the pressure, and how different 'caps' create different lines.
Practice run: Campers head to the practice wall to get a feel for the paint, experimenting with fades, drips, and sharp outlines.
The big design: Moving on to the main event, participants work on their own individual pieces or contribute to a massive group mural.
Adding the 'pop': We teach the tricks of the trade—highlights, 3D effects, and 'force fields' that make the artwork jump off the wall.
The final signature: No piece of street art is complete without a 'tag.' We help each camper design their own unique artist signature.
Gallery walk: We finish with a celebratory walk-through of all the creations, perfect for photos and high-fives before heading home!

Good to know

Duration: Sessions usually range from 1.5 to 3 hours, but we can customise for full-day school holiday programmes.
Group Sizes: We cater to everything from small groups of 10 to large youth organisations of 50+.
What’s Included: All spray paint, safety gear (masks/gloves), canvases, and expert tuition from pro artists.
Safety First: We use high-grade protective equipment and follow strict safety protocols to ensure a worry-free experience.
Backup Guarantee: We always have backup artists ready to go, so your summer camp session is 100% guaranteed to happen.

Our sessions tap into that local Manawatū spirit, encouraging kids to take inspiration from the city's unique blend of urban vibes and rural surrounds. It’s not just about painting; it’s about contributing to the growing street art culture that makes this city so awesome.
