Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who has a passion for graffiti art and street art, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas that you can consider:

1. Street Art Tour Experience: Look for guided street art tours in your city or in a nearby urban area known for its vibrant street art scene. This would provide him with an opportunity to explore different neighborhoods, see incredible murals, and learn about the artists behind them. It can be an immersive experience that allows him to deepen his knowledge and appreciation for this art form.

2. Art Supplies: If your son has a creative streak and enjoys expressing himself through art, consider getting him a set of high-quality art supplies. Look for graffiti markers, spray paints, specialized paint pens, and sketchbooks that are designed for street art. Having the right tools can encourage him to experiment, refine his techniques, and create his own unique artwork.

3. Street Art Books: There are numerous books available that showcase the work of renowned street artists from around the world. Look for titles like "Street Art: The Best Urban Art from Around the World" or "The World Atlas of Street Art and Graffiti" that feature stunning photographs and insightful commentary. These books can serve as a source of inspiration and allow him to study different styles and techniques.

4. Art Prints or Posters: Explore online marketplaces or local galleries for limited edition prints or posters featuring the work of his favorite graffiti artists. These prints can be framed and displayed in his room, adding a touch of street art to his personal space. Additionally, supporting artists by purchasing their prints can be a meaningful way to show appreciation for their work.

5. Street Art Workshop or Class: If your son is interested in learning how to create graffiti art himself, consider enrolling him in a street art workshop or class. Many cities offer programs or art schools that provide guidance and mentorship in this art form. Learning from experienced artists can help him develop his skills and techniques, as well as gain a deeper understanding of the culture and history behind graffiti art.

6. Customized Street Art Apparel: Look for streetwear brands or online shops that specialize in street art-inspired clothing and accessories. You can find t-shirts, hoodies, caps, or backpacks featuring graffiti-style designs. Consider choosing pieces that reflect your son's personal style and favorite artists. Customized apparel can be a unique way for him to showcase his love for street art in his everyday life.

Remember, the most important part of selecting a meaningful gift is to show your son that you appreciate and support his passion for graffiti art and street art. By choosing a gift that aligns with his interests, you are not only giving him something he will enjoy but also encouraging his artistic growth and development.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
