Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who is passionate about street art and graffiti, you have a plethora of wonderful gift options to choose from. Here are a few ideas that are sure to make his Christmas memorable:

1. Art Supplies: Enhance his creativity and encourage his artistic talents with a set of high-quality art supplies. Consider gifting him a pack of premium spray paints, sketchbooks, markers, or canvases. These materials will allow him to experiment with different mediums and techniques, just like the street artists he admires.

2. Street Art Books: Street art has a rich and diverse history that your son might enjoy exploring. Choose a book filled with stunning photographs and captivating stories, such as "The World Atlas of Street Art and Graffiti" by Rafael Schacter or "Street Knowledge" by King Adz. These books not only showcase incredible street art from around the world but also provide insights into the artists' backgrounds and inspirations.

3. Workshop or Class: Treat your son to a street art or graffiti workshop where he can learn from professionals in the field. Many cities offer these types of classes where he can develop his skills, learn new techniques, and connect with fellow street art enthusiasts. This experience will not only be educational but also a great opportunity for him to engage with like-minded individuals and grow as an artist.

4. Customized Clothing: Help your son express his love for street art by gifting him clothing or accessories that feature graffiti-inspired designs. Look for streetwear brands or independent artists who create unique and eye-catching apparel. Customized t-shirts, hoodies, hats, or backpacks adorned with graffiti lettering or street art motifs will allow him to showcase his artistic passion wherever he goes.

5. Street Art Experiences: Surprise your son with tickets to a street art festival or an exhibition featuring renowned street artists. These events provide a fantastic opportunity for him to see the work of his favorite artists up close, witness live art demonstrations, and immerse himself in the vibrant street art community.

6. Gift Card to an Art Supply Store: If you're unsure about what specific art supplies your son needs or prefers, a gift card to a reputable art supply store will allow him to choose exactly what he wants. This way, he can browse through the store's wide range of products and purchase the materials he needs for his projects.

Remember, the most meaningful gift is the one that shows that you've taken the time to understand your son's interests and support his passions. By choosing a gift that aligns with his love for street art and graffiti, you're not only providing him with a thoughtful present but also encouraging his artistic growth and expression.

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

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“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.”
