How it works

  1. Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy intro to street art culture and a safety briefing.
  2. Sketching the vision: Kids grab paper and markers to brainstorm their unique 'tag' and design concepts.
  3. Spray tech 101: Our artists demonstrate can control, nozzle types, and how to create clean lines.
  4. Practice run: Campers practice their moves on 'practice walls' or stretch film to get the feel of the pressure.
  5. The big outline: It’s time for the real deal! We start mapping out the large-scale mural on the main surface.
  6. Filling with colour: This is where the magic happens as the group adds vibrant layers and gradients.
  7. Bold detailing: We teach the kids how to add highlights, shadows, and 'power lines' to make the art pop.
  8. The final reveal: We step back, admire the collective masterpiece, and take plenty of photos!
  9. Clear up: We teach the importance of leaving the space better than we found it, disposing of cans responsibly.

Frequently asked questions

Do the kids need to have previous drawing or painting skills?

Absolutely! No prior artistic experience is needed to join our Mendoza summer camp sessions. Our professional artists break down the process into easy-to-follow steps, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering basic shading. We focus on the'fun' in fundamentals, ensuring every camper feels like a pro by the end of the day. It is all about expression, not perfection!

What safety measures are in place during the workshop?

Safety is our absolute priority in Mendoza. We provide high-quality respiratory masks (FPP3), protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep clothes clean. Our spray paints are selected for their safety standards, and our instructors are trained in site safety management. We ensure a well-ventilated outdoor environment where kids can create freely without any health risks.

What should my child wear to the graffiti summer camp?

We recommend wearing comfortable 'play clothes' and closed-toe shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide full-body protective suits and gloves, graffiti can be a splashy business! Dressing for the Mendoza sunshine with a hat and sunscreen is also a great idea as we usually work in outdoor creative spaces.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

A standard creative session usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives the youth enough time to learn the history of street art, practice their 'tag' on plastic film or boards, and finally collaborate on a large-scale mural or individual masterpiece. We find this timeframe is perfect for maintaining high energy and focus without getting tired.

What is the age range for the summer camp activities?

Our Mendoza workshops are generally designed for ages 8 to 18. We group participants by age to ensure the teaching style and complexity of the project match their developmental level. For younger children, we focus more on shapes and colours, while teenagers often dive into complex lettering, 3D effects, and the cultural history of the global street art movement.

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

We are fully prepared for the Mendoza weather! If we have a rare rainy day, we often have access to covered outdoor areas or large, well-ventilated indoor industrial spaces. We also have backup artists on call, so your scheduled session will never be cancelled due to staff illness. We guarantee the creative fun will happen rain or shine!

How does the payment process work?

Graffitifun is unique because we don't require any upfront payments. You can book your spot and pay after the workshop is completed. We accept various payment methods including bank transfers or cash on the day. We believe in the quality of our Mendoza workshops, so we want you to be 100% satisfied before we settle the bill.
