Five Star Gift Ideas

For a son who appreciates exploring urban and street art, there are numerous unique and meaningful gift options that can cater to his passion. Here are a few ideas that might help you find the perfect Christmas present:

1. Street Art Walking Tour: Consider booking a guided street art walking tour in a nearby city known for its vibrant street art scene. This would give your son the opportunity to explore new artworks and learn about the artists behind them. It could be an exciting and educational experience that he would treasure.

2. Street Art Books: Look for well-illustrated, coffee table books on street art and graffiti. These books typically showcase stunning visuals of urban art from around the world and provide interesting insights into the culture and history of street art. They can serve as both a source of inspiration and as a decorative item for his room.

3. Art Supplies: If your son is interested in creating street art himself, gift him high-quality art supplies specifically designed for urban art styles. Consider items such as graffiti markers, acrylic paints, stencils, and sketchbooks. This would enable him to experiment and express his creativity through his own artwork.

4. Street Art Prints or Posters: Look for limited edition prints or posters featuring renowned street artists or iconic street art pieces. Besides showcasing his favorite artists' works, these prints can also become valuable, collectible items that add an artistic touch to his living space.

5. Artist Workshop or Class: If your son is eager to learn more about street art techniques or wants to enhance his artistic skills, gifting him an artist workshop or class would be a perfect choice. Many cities offer street art or graffiti workshops where participants can learn from experienced artists. This hands-on experience would provide him with valuable insights into the artistic process and connect him with like-minded individuals.

6. Subscription to an Art Magazine: There are several art magazines available that focus specifically on urban and street art. Gifting your son a subscription to one of these magazines would keep him updated on the latest trends, artist interviews, and upcoming exhibitions. It can serve as a regular source of inspiration and further nurture his interest in the subject.

7. Customized Street Art Merchandise: Look for customized merchandise like T-shirts, hoodies, phone cases, or even sneakers featuring prints or designs inspired by street art. Not only would this allow your son to display his passion for urban art, but it would also make for a unique and personalized gift.

When choosing a gift for your son who appreciates urban and street art, consider his specific interests and preferences. By selecting something that aligns with his passion, you can demonstrate your support and appreciation for his artistic endeavors, making the gift all the more meaningful and special.

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.”
