How it works

  2. Safety first: Every participant gets kitted out with professional masks, gloves, and protective gear while we explain the rules.
  3. Mastering the gear: Our artists show you how to handle the spray cans and how different caps create different line widths.
  4. Sketching the vision: Participants start by sketching their ideas on paper, planning their tags or color schemes before hitting the wall.
  5. Technique practice: We practice "fading," "outlining," and "filling" on practice surfaces to get a feel for the pressure of the cans.
  6. The Masterpiece: It's time! Everyone works on a large-scale project, applying their new skills to create something truly impressive.
  7. Finishing touches: Our pro artists help the kids add those final highlights and sharp edges that make the art pop.

Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti summer camp safe for my children?

Safety is our number one priority. Our instructors are professional artists who have years of experience working with youth. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, and we only use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for kids to control. Every session in Lagos begins with a comprehensive safety briefing to ensure everyone stays safe while having fun.

Do the kids need to have previous art experience?

Absolutely no prior experience is needed! Our Lagos summer camp is designed for everyone, from complete beginners to those who already love to doodle. Our artists break down the process into easy, manageable steps. We focus on building confidence and showing every participant that they have a unique creative voice, regardless of their starting skill level.

What should the participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend that participants wear old clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be messy! It’s all part of the fun of being a real street artist for a day in the heart of Lagos.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Each workshop typically lasts between 2 to 3 hours. This gives the youth enough time to learn the history of street art, practice their techniques on plastic film or practice walls, and then complete their final masterpiece. We find this timeframe is perfect for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp without the kids getting tired.

What is included in the price of the summer camp?

Everything is included! We provide the spray cans, various nozzle tips (caps), protective gear, and the surfaces for painting. We also have backup artists ready to go, so you never have to worry about a cancellation. You just need to bring your creativity and energy to the venue; we handle all the logistics and cleanup.

Do I need to pay in advance to book a slot?

Booking is easy and stress-free. You don't need to pay anything upfront. Simply contact us to discuss your dates and group size, and we will reserve your slot. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. This is our guarantee of quality and trust for our Lagos clients.

Can you host the summer camp at our specific location in Lagos?

Yes, we can! While we have great locations in Lagos, we are also mobile. If you have a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated indoor area at your school or community center, our team can bring the entire graffiti experience to you. We handle the setup and ensure the area is protected and left clean.
