How it works
- Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy intro to graffiti culture and a quick look at Lisbon's local street art style to get the ideas flowing.
- Safety first: Everyone gets geared up with masks, gloves, and overalls. We go over the "rules of the spray" to keep things fun and safe for everyone.
- Sketching the vision: Participants grab paper and pens to sketch out their tags or masterpiece designs, guided by our professional artists.
- Mastering the can: We head to the wall (or canvas) for a demo on nozzle control, lines, and shading – it's harder than it looks but tons of fun!
- The first layer: Time to make a move! The kids start filling in their backgrounds and basic shapes using their chosen colour palettes.
- Adding the details: This is where the magic happens. We teach how to add outlines, glows, and those "3D" effects that make the art pop.
- Final flourishes: The artists go around helping everyone add highlights and clean up any drips for a professional-looking finish.
- The big reveal: We take a group photo with the finished artwork – a perfect memory of a creative summer in Lisbon.

Pricing
We believe every summer camp deserves a splash of colour, which is why we offer flexible pricing to fit your budget. Our rates generally range from €20 to €45 per person, depending on the number of participants, the duration of the workshop, and the specific materials involved (like take-home canvases vs. mural walls).
Because every group in Lisbon is unique, we don't do "one size fits all." We want to make sure you get the best value for your creative experience. 🔥
Frequently asked questions
Do the children need any previous art experience?
Absolutely! No prior painting or drawing experience is required for our Lisbon summer camp sessions. Our professional street artists are experts at breaking down complex techniques into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We start with the basics of spray control and safety, ensuring every participant feels confident and capable. By the end of the day, even those who thought they weren't 'artistic' will have created a masterpiece they can be proud of!
Is the graffiti workshop safe for younger teens?
Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. Our spray paints are low-odour and chosen for their safety profile. Furthermore, our instructors are seasoned professionals who maintain a strictly supervised environment, ensuring tools are used correctly and the group stays together in a safe, designated painting zone within Lisbon.
What should participants wear to the workshop?
We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable trainers that you don't mind getting a bit of 'artistic' character on. While we provide full protective suits (coveralls), spray paint can sometimes find its way onto shoes or sleeves. It is always better to be safe and dress down for the occasion. Since we are in sunny Lisbon, don't forget to apply sunscreen and bring a hat for outdoor sessions!
How do you handle the Lisbon summer heat during activities?
The Portuguese summer can be intense, so we plan accordingly. We often use shaded areas or well-ventilated indoor-outdoor spaces to keep everyone cool. We encourage frequent hydration breaks and ensure there is plenty of water available. If the weather is particularly extreme, we have backup indoor locations or can reschedule to a cooler part of the day to ensure everyone stays refreshed and happy while they paint.
Can the kids take their artwork home?
Yes! One of the best parts of our Summer Camp vertical is that participants get to take home their individual creations. Whether it's a custom-painted canvas, a cardboard piece, or a specific streetwear item we've worked on, they will have a tangible memory of their Lisbon street art experience. For large-scale collaborative murals, we make sure to take high-quality photos for everyone to keep and share online.
What is the typical duration of a session?
Our standard summer camp workshops usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours, but we can easily adapt the timing to fit your camp's specific itinerary. We can run single-day 'taster' sessions or multi-day programmes that dive deeper into the culture and techniques of street art. Just let us know your schedule requirements, and we will tailor the perfect creative block for your group.
Is there an educational aspect regarding Lisbon's local art?
Lisbon's street art scene is world-renowned, and we love to incorporate its history. We often discuss local legends and the different styles found in neighbourhoods like Bairro Alto or Graça. Depending on the location chosen, we might even take a short 'inspiration walk' to look at nearby pieces before starting our own work. It’s a great way for the youth to connect with the city’s vibrant urban culture.
