How it works

  1. Introduction & Safety: We start with a high-energy intro to the world of street art and a vital safety briefing regarding gear and spray techniques.
  2. Sketching the Vision: Participants grab paper and pencils to brainstorm their tags and designs, learning how to structure letters and characters.
  3. Can Control 101: Before hitting the wall, kids practice "dots and lines" to get a feel for pressure, distance, and hand movement.
  4. The Outline: It's time to go big! We guide the campers in sketching their designs onto the wall or canvas using light-coloured paint.
  5. Filling & Colouring: This is where the magic happens as we explore colour theory, gradients, and "fades" to make the art pop.
  6. The "Powerline": We teach the secret of the sharp outline (the "cut") to give the graffiti that professional, crisp finish.
  7. Highlights & Details: Adding shines, bubbles, and "bits" to bring the piece to life and give it a unique personality.
  8. Group Photo & Celebration: We finish with a photo session in front of the masterpiece so every camper has a digital memory of their work.

Frequently asked questions

Do the kids need any prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Most of our summer camp participants in Fortaleza have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert teachers who break down the process into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to filling and shading. By the end of the session, every child will have created something they are truly proud of. It’s all about building confidence through creativity.

Is the spray paint safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our absolute number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective ponchos to all participants. We exclusively use low-pressure spray cans which are easier for younger hands to control and contain fewer solvents than industrial paints. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for everyone involved.

What should the participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend that participants wear comfortable "old" clothes and closed-toe shoes. While we provide protective ponchos and gloves, graffiti can be a bit messy, and paint splashes sometimes find their way onto sleeves or trousers. It’s better to wear something that you don't mind getting a little colourful! Fortaleza's sun can be strong, so bringing a hat and some sunscreen for our outdoor sessions is also a great idea.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

A standard summer camp workshop in Fortaleza typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a safety demonstration, technique practice, and the final creation of a large-scale mural or individual canvases. We find this timeframe is perfect for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp without the kids getting overtired in the Brazilian heat.

Where in Fortaleza do the workshops take place?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop at your specific summer camp location if you have a suitable wall or open space. Alternatively, we can arrange for the session to take place at one of Fortaleza’s vibrant local street art spots or a private studio space. We bring all the necessary equipment to you, including mobile boards if there isn't a permanent wall available for us to paint on.

What is your payment and cancellation policy?

No upfront payment is required when you book with Graffitifun. We believe in the quality of our service, so you only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed. If for any reason the workshop cannot go ahead, we have a network of backup artists available to ensure your summer camp schedule stays on track. This "no-risk" policy ensures peace of mind for camp organisers and parents alike.

Is there a specific age limit for the summer camp activities?

Our workshops are generally best suited for children aged 8 and up, as they need a certain level of hand strength to operate the spray cans. However, we can adapt our programme for younger children using water-based markers or stencils if requested. For teenagers, we ramp up the technical difficulty to keep them engaged, focusing on complex cap techniques, 3D effects, and stylistic "wildstyle" lettering. Everyone finds their own pace!
