How it works
- Intro & Street Art History: We kick things off with a cool intro into the world of graffiti, its origins, and how it evolved into the urban art we see in Paris today.
- Safety & Gear: Everyone gets suited up in protective gear. Safety first! We explain how to use the nozzles and handle the cans correctly.
- Mastering the Basics: Kids start practicing on some test surfaces. They'll learn how to make thin lines, fat drips, and perfect circles.
- Sketching the Concept: The group works together or individually to sketch out their design ideas on paper before hitting the 'wall'.
- Outline Practice: It's time to go big! Participants start sketching their design onto the canvas or wall using light colours.
- Filling & Shading: This is where the magic happens. We teach the kids how to blend colours and add depth to their graffiti names or characters.
- The 'Final Touch': We add the sharp outlines and highlights that make the artwork really pop and look professional.
- Photo Ops & Wrap-up: We finish with a group photo in front of the masterpiece. Every participant leaves with a massive sense of achievement!

Frequently asked questions
Is the graffiti summer camp activity safe for children?
Absolutely! At Graffitifun, safety is our top priority. We use high-quality, low-odour spray paint and provide all participants with protective gloves, masks, and overalls. Our professional instructors are experienced in working with youth groups and ensure a supervised, controlled environment. We teach the kids how to handle the cans properly from the start, making sure everyone has a blast while staying completely safe throughout the summer camp session in Paris.
What should the participants wear to the workshop?
We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable trainers that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide protective gear like ponchos and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a messy business! Since our Paris workshops often take place outdoors or in well-ventilated creative spaces, it’s also a good idea to bring a hat and some sunscreen if we are working under the sun. We'll take care of all the art supplies!
Do the kids need any prior drawing or painting skills?
Not at all! Our summer camp activities are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners who have never touched a spray can to budding young artists. Our instructors guide the group through every step, beginning with basic techniques like lines and dots before moving on to more complex pieces. Every child will leave the session feeling proud of the masterpiece they’ve created, regardless of their previous art experience.
How long does a typical graffiti workshop last?
Our standard summer camp sessions in Paris usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe is perfect for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp. During this time, we cover the history of street art, practice different spraying techniques, and complete a full-scale graffiti project. We can also adapt the duration to fit into your camp's specific daily schedule or combine it with other creative activities.
Where in Paris do the workshops take place?
We are very flexible! We can host the workshop at one of our vibrant partner locations across Paris, often near famous street art hubs. Alternatively, if your summer camp has its own venue with a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated indoor area, our artists can travel to you with all the equipment. We bring the 'street' to your doorstep, ensuring a convenient and exciting experience for your group.
What is the minimum age for participants?
We work with a wide range of youth ages, typically starting from 8 years old up to teenagers. The techniques and complexity of the workshop are adjusted based on the age group to ensure everyone stays engaged and challenged. For younger children, we focus more on shapes and fun colours, while teenagers can dive deeper into 'wildstyle' lettering and advanced shading techniques. It's all about creative expression for everyone!
How do I book a session for my summer camp?
Booking is simple! You can reach out to us via our website to request a custom quote. Because we don't require upfront payments, you can secure your date with peace of mind. Once we’ve discussed your group size and date, we’ll handle the rest. We even have backup artists available, so you never have to worry about a last-minute cancellation.
