Why choose us in Pretoria?

Why choose a graffiti camp over a standard sports or craft club? Because street art is the ultimate confidence booster! In the heart of Pretoria, we provide a space where "there are no mistakes, only additions." Check out why our summer camp is the talk of the town: 🔥

Boosts confidence: Seeing a 2-metre tall masterpiece they created themselves gives kids a massive sense of achievement.
Professional mentors: Learn directly from real South African graffiti artists who live and breathe the culture.
Total safety: We provide top-tier protective gear and masks—all the fun with none of the worry! 🛡️
Team building: Collaborative murals teach kids how to communicate and work together to achieve a "city-sized" goal.
Zero stress booking: No upfront payment needed and we have backup artists ready to go—no cancellations here! 🏆
Unleashed expression: A safe outlet for "rebellious" creativity that turns energy into beautiful public-style art.

How it works

Intro & inspiration: We start with a high-energy kick-off where our artists show off some local Pretoria styles and explain the daily mission.
Sketching the vision: Before the paint flies, kids grab markers and paper to brainstorm their 'tag' and plan their masterpiece.
Gear up: Safety first! Every participant gets fitted with a mask, gloves, and a protective suit so they look like pro street artists.
Nozzle knowledge: We teach the kids about different nozzles (caps) and how to control the pressure for thin lines or fat fills.
Practice runs: On a practice surface, the youth get the hang of the movement—it's all in the wrist and the flow!
The big piece: This is the main event! Whether it's a team mural or individual boards, the kids start bringing their colourful visions to life.
Filling & fading: Our artists guide them through advanced techniques like colour blending, fading, and adding 'bits' (decorations).
The outline: We finish with the 'power line' or sharp outlines to make the graffiti pop against the background.
Photo finish: We wrap up with a group photo session and a ‘gallery walk’ to celebrate everyone's creative wins!

Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti summer camp safe for my children?

Your kids' safety is our primary concern! We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep clothes clean. Our spray paints are professional-grade but used in a strictly supervised, well-ventilated outdoor environment. Our Pretoria artists are experts at managing groups of energetic youth, ensuring everyone follows safety protocols while having the time of their lives. We maintain a high artist-to-student ratio for maximum supervision.

Do the kids need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our Pretoria summer camp is designed for all skill levels, from absolute beginners to those who are already sketching in their notebooks. We start with the basics of can control and lettering, so every child feels confident before they touch the wall. It’s all about discovery, creativity, and finding their own unique style in a supportive, fun-filled South African environment.

What should my child wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend kids wear old clothes and sneakers that you don't mind getting a bit of 'artistic character' on. While we provide full protective suits and gloves, sometimes a stray drop of paint finds its way onto a sleeve or a shoe during the excitement! It’s all part of the authentic Pretoria street art experience. Comfortable clothes allow them to move freely while painting big murals.

How long does a typical creative session last?

Our standard summer camp sessions in Pretoria typically run between 2 to 3 hours. This gives the youth enough time to learn the theory, practice their tags on paper, and then complete a large-scale piece on a wall or canvas. For longer holiday programmes, we can arrange multi-day workshops that dive deeper into stencil art, character design, and history.

Do the participants get to take their artwork home?

One of the best parts is that the kids get to keep their creations! While some sessions involve a massive collaborative mural on a wall, we often include individual canvases or boards. This means they can take their first authentic piece of street art home to hang on their bedroom wall as a trophy of their summer in Pretoria.

How much does the summer camp cost per child?

Our pricing in Pretoria is flexible and depends on the number of participants and the specific setup (like whether we use boards or a permanent wall). Prices generally range from R400 to R900 per person. We offer great rates for larger youth groups and community centres. The best way to get an accurate price is to request a custom quote via our website.
