Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti summer camp safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our top priority! Every participant receives high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and coveralls. Our Nairobi artists are seasoned professionals who provide a full safety briefing before any cans are shaken. We use low-odour, high-quality spray paints and conduct our summer camp sessions in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces to ensure everyone stays healthy while being creative.

Do participants need prior art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our Nairobi summer camp is designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to budding young artists. Our professional street artists guide every participant through the basics of 'can control', lettering, and shading. We focus on boosting confidence and teaching new techniques, so everyone walks away with a masterpiece they are proud of, regardless of their starting point.

What should my child wear and bring to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable 'old' clothes and closed-toe shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide full protective suits, stray paint can sometimes find its way onto sleeves or shoes. Nairobi’s weather can be sunny, so bringing a hat, sunscreen, and a water bottle is also a great idea for our outdoor sessions.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Our typical summer camp workshop in Nairobi lasts between 2 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a fun introduction, a crash course in spray-painting techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of a large-scale group mural. We find this duration keeps energy levels high and ensures everyone stays fully engaged throughout the session.

Can you host the summer camp at our specific location?

Yes! We offer total flexibility. Whether you want to host the camp at a local school in Nairobi, a community centre, or even a private backyard, our team can come to you. We bring all the necessary mobile walls and protection to ensure the site remains clean. Alternatively, we can suggest one of our cool local street art partner locations.

How do I book and what are the payment terms?

Booking is easy and risk-free with Graffitifun. You can request a quote via our website or use our cost calculator for an instant estimate. The best part? There is no upfront payment required. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. We also have backup artists ready to go!
