Why choose us in Oslo?

Why choose a graffiti camp for your summer break in Oslo? It’s more than just painting; it’s about building confidence and discovering a new way to communicate. Here’s why our workshop is the highlight of the season:

  • Epic Skill Building: Learn authentic spray-painting techniques, from 'fats' to 'skins', that you won't find in a standard art class. 🎨
  • Professional Mentorship: Our artists aren't just teachers; they are active members of the street art scene who live and breathe this culture. 🎤
  • Complete Safety: We provide top-tier protective gear, ensuring all the fun stays on the canvas and not on your lungs. 🛡️
  • Stress-Free Planning: No deposits, no stress. Our 'No-Cancellation' guarantee means we always show up, rain or shine. ☀️
  • Takeaway Art: Every camper gets to take home their own custom canvas to show off to friends and family. 🏆
  • Boost Creativity: In a world of digital screens, there’s nothing like the tactile feel of a spray can to spark real-world imagination. ✨

How it works

  1. Warm-up & safety briefing: We kick things off with a quick intro to the tools of the trade and vital safety rules to keep everyone protected.
  2. The art of the sketch: Before we touch the cans, we grab paper and markers to map out our tags and 'throw-ups' on paper.
  3. Can control basics: Learn how to hold the spray can, how to swap nozzles (caps), and how to control pressure for different line widths.
  4. Mastering the lines: Practice straight lines, circles, and those iconic graffiti drips on a practice surface.
  5. Filling and fading: Discover the secrets of 'filling in' your letters and creating smooth colour gradients with spray paint.
  6. The outline & highlights: This is where the magic happens! We add the sharp outlines and 'shining' highlights to make the art pop.
  7. Final touches: Our pro artists help you refine your details and add your personal 'tag' signature to your masterpiece.
  8. The grand reveal: We finish with a group photo session to showcase the amazing collective talent of the Oslo crew!

Frequently asked questions

Do the kids need any prior art experience?

Absolutely! No previous drawing or painting experience is required for our Oslo summer camp sessions. Our professional artists are expert teachers who break down the process into simple, manageable steps. We focus on 'controlled chaos' and creative expression, ensuring every participant leaves with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of. It’s all about having fun and learning something new!

Is the paint safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specialized indoor spaces. Furthermore, our instructors are experienced professionals who supervise the use of spray cans at all times, ensuring a secure environment for all young creators to explore their talents.

What is the minimum age for the graffiti camp?

For our summer camp programmes in Oslo, we recommend a minimum age of 8 years old. This ensures that the participants have the physical strength to operate the spray cans and the attention span to follow the safety instructions. We tailor our teaching style to different age brackets, ensuring that both young children and older teenagers remain fully engaged and challenged.

What happens if it rains during the workshop?

In the spirit of Norwegian 'friluftsliv', we love working outdoors! However, we always have a Plan B. If the Oslo weather turns particularly rainy, we either move to a covered outdoor location or one of our indoor studio partners. Our 'no-cancellation' policy means we have backup artists and venues ready to ensure the creative fun happens regardless of the clouds.

What should participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable trainers that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. Even though we provide full protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be a bit messy! It’s best to be prepared so you can focus entirely on your masterpiece rather than worrying about your laundry. Fresh air and old hoodies are the way to go!

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Standard summer camp sessions in Oslo typically run between 1.5 to 3 hours. For longer camp programmes, we can arrange multi-day 'masterclasses' where students dive deeper into sketching, lettering, and complex character design. We are flexible and can adapt the duration to fit into your existing camp schedule or school holiday itinerary perfectly.

Can the participants take their artwork home?

Yes! One of the best parts of our Oslo summer camp vertical is that every participant gets to create their own artwork on a professional canvas or wooden panel. This means they have a physical souvenir of their holiday experience to take home and hang on their wall. It serves as a lasting reminder of the skills they learned and the fun they had.
