How it works

  1. Introduction & safety: We start with an energetic greeting from our local Rome artists and a quick safety briefing on how to use the gear properly.
  2. Sketching the vision: Kids grab paper and markers to brainstorm their own nicknames or 'tags' and plan their colour palettes. ✨
  3. Can control basics: Before hitting the big wall, we teach the 'nozzle' basics—how to hold the can, control the pressure, and create different line widths.
  4. The outline phase: Participants start their design on the wall or canvas, learning how to scale up their small sketches into large-scale art.
  5. Filling & fades: This is where the magic happens! We show them how to blend colours and create those iconic graffiti gradients. 🎨
  6. The master outline: Kids add the final sharp outlines to make their artwork pop against the background. ✨
  7. Highlighting & 3D: We teach secret pro-tricks like adding white highlights and drop shadows for a professional 3D effect.
  8. The final reveal: We finish with a 'gallery walk' where everyone presents their work, followed by a group photo session with the finished mural. 📸
  9. Clean up & high fives: We pack up the gear, leave the site spotless, and hand out high fives all round! 🎉

Frequently asked questions

How is a graffiti workshop different from a regular art class?

Unlike a traditional art class where students sit at desks, our Rome summer camp activities are high-energy and physical. We move outdoors, use our whole bodies to paint, and encourage kids to express their unique personalities. Every participant gets to design their own 'tag' and work on a collaborative mural, fostering a sense of community that you simply don't get with standard sketchbooks and pencils. It’s about freedom and confidence building.

Is the spray paint safe for children and teenagers?

We take safety very seriously. All participants are provided with high-quality FFP2 masks to prevent inhalation of fumes, along with protective overalls and gloves to keep clothes clean. Our workshops are led by professional artists who supervise the use of spray cans at all times. We also use low-solvent or water-based paints where possible, ensuring a creative environment that is both fun and safe for younger artists.

What happens if it rains during the summer camp session?

The Eternal City has fantastic weather, but if it happens to pour down, we have you covered. We work with several indoor creative studios and covered urban spaces across Rome to ensure the summer camp fun never stops. If the weather looks particularly bad, we will coordinate with you to move the session to one of our rain-proof locations or reschedule for a sunnier day. The creativity keeps flowing regardless!

Do the kids need any previous drawing or painting experience?

Absolutely! The beauty of street art is that it’s accessible to everyone. Our instructors specialise in teaching 'from scratch.' We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to more complex techniques like shading and 3D effects. Most kids are amazed at what they can produce in just a couple of hours. It’s all about the process and having a great time, not perfection.

What should the children wear to the workshop?

We recommend that participants wear comfortable, older clothes and closed-toe shoes. While we provide full-body protective overalls, graffiti can be a messy business, and it’s always better to be safe! If they have a baseball cap or a bandana, those can also be fun additions to the 'street art' look. We provide all the professional equipment, including spray cans, caps, and safety gear.

Can we host the workshop at our own summer camp location?

We are very flexible! While we have several 'hall of fame' walls and creative spots around Rome that we love to use, we can also bring the workshop to your specific summer camp location if you have a suitable outdoor space. We bring all the mobile boards and materials, transforming your playground or courtyard into a temporary street art gallery for the day. Just let us know your preference!
